I would first like to start by saying that I am not the type of guy to sit down and be typing this out but have had a nightmare trying to get an electric and gas metre box for the outside of my daughters house over the last few months, I thought it only fair to share with you all or (whoever is reading this). All I would like to say is I wish I knew of this company before, a great product, a great service, and my nightmare went away, the boxes were just the ticket they fitted perfect to my gas and electric boxes. I had the OB6 and the OB8. They were so easy to fit and the staff where so helpful I even rung them back up after fitting them to say “thanks” now I never do that either. The delivery was quick to, 2 days and to my works address the deliver courier they use kept you well informed on delivery status which I do think a lot of the couriers do now anyway but still good anyway. That’s it thanks JML from Paul of Weston-super-Mare ( where the pier caught fire in 2008)
Testimonials/Reviews
We have purchased 20+ meter boxes and gas boxes from Phil over the last month. The Gas boxes are all made to specific order with very agreeable lead times and the meter boxes next day delivery. The products are of fantastic quality at a great price. Communication is spot on.
Great work Phil, Thanks very much for a brilliant service.

Hi Phil,
I would like to thank you for my recent purchases of both gas and electric repair boxes. The initial support and advice was great and the product arrived very efficiently.
As you no one of the boxes was the wrong fitting and this was dealt with immediately. The very next day you had sent someone out and replaced the box with no issues at all, its great when a company puts customers at there highest priority.
I cant recommend JML Hardware enough and I definitely wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others.
Thanks again

Ordered gas box cover, arrived as promised. Bit bashed up by courier.
Phil sent one out another next day directly with one of his team. All queries responded too quickly. Fitting the gas box today and then will be ordering one for the electric box too which they are going to supply in a different colour to save me painting it too match surrounding. Excellent service and thoroughly recommend.

Not being 'in the trade' I was worried about getting the correct meter box. The customer service was top notch. They told me what I needed to do to get the correct one, were happy for me to send in a photo and measurements to be sure and were even replying to me over the weekend! It made the process very simple.

Testimonial/Review * We thought that we had a simple job to do, we needed to replace both our gas and electric meter boxes. Sounds simple eh... Well we went all over the place, many stocked elec but not gas (we needed them to fit over the existing)
I found Phil online, called him and he told me to send a picture of the two meters, then told me what I needed, they were dispatched next day and are now fitted. Thanks again Phil.

First class service all round.
Sent of email requesting the details for correct overboxes for gas and electricity meters on a Sat, got a reply on a Sunday, which in itself shows committement.
Ordered the goods and with 48 hrs they were fitted, with extreme ease, they fitted perfectly and customer over the moon.
Sales and service are first class. Used these guys several times over the years and every time the service has been brilliant.
Thanks to everyone ... keep up the great work and great products

Having been quoted approximately £700 by Cadent to replace my gas meter box we looked for an alternative solution. JML were extremely helpful in recommending the appropriate overbox. I am impressed with the quality of the product, the ease of installation and the speed of delivery. So for the cost of a box I have the perfect solution. Well done JML.

Spoke to Phil on Tuesday early morning, gave him measurements of my damaged electricity box.
He immediately confirmed that I needed an OB8E cover.
I ordered it on line and it arrived at midday the next day ( Wednesday ).By mid afternoon I had installed it and it looked a "proper job". Not bad from purchase, delivery and install just over a day.Easy to install and a very good quality product.Excellent, helpful and friendly service.

Needed a replacement meter box and wasn't sure which one to get and so I emailed JML on the weekend and got a response within hours telling me which one to order! Then when I ordered the wrong one by mistake JML contacted me proactively within hours letting me know that they had changed my order based on the email exchange! Amazing service.

I have bought a nice modern house, built in 2014, which - unfortunately - had Mitras recessed meter boxes installed. These Mitras boxes (gas: G01134, electricity: M01126) are made of plastic, have flimsy hinges and one (plastic) lock whilst costing not a little. Over the few years this house has been standing, the meter readers would seldom bother to shut the meter doors properly after taking the reading which could perhaps be partly justified by the poor quality of the Mitras plastic locks. The unlocked doors would flap in the wind and the hinges would deteriorate both in the recessed-cavity part and on the outside doors.
In 2021, the hinges of both meter boxes finally expired and the doors were blown off for good so it would seem that both recessed boxes would have to be replaced. This would require qualified electrical / gas installers removing the meters, pulling out the recessed meters and putting in new recessed meter boxes. This would be a very expensive exercise and, if the plastic Mitras boxes were to be used again, the story would repeat itself in a few years time. Since such meter box repairs are the responsibility of the house owner, the only sensible option is to put overboxes on the existing recessed-cavity parts.
My Internet-based hunt for suitable overboxes yielded JML Hardware as a market leader for four reasons. Firstly, JML Hardware offer a wide range of good-quality, powdered-coated aluminium overboxes with each overbox having two solid metal locks, each lock having a long metal lip. Secondly, these overboxes are reasonably priced, especially if bought directly from JML Hardware. Thirdly, JML Hardware offer free advice about the best choice of the overboxes both through their Web pages and also by phone / email. Since there are quite a few meter box shapes / sizes around and the overboxes should fit snugly, this free advice is really valuable. Finally, the JML Hardware overboxes are delivered overnight at a reasonable shipping price which is really useful if rain pours down into a recessed electricity meter.
Overall, both the goods and the service from JML Hardware can only be described as excellent and long may it continue.

It’s Ben Mills. I ordered 2x (150x155mm) black pipepro soil stack protectors from your company jml hardware over the phone yesterday. I believe it was you that I spoke to………….
Excellent, they arrived this afternoon and are exactly what I ordered. – “And…….?” I hear you ask.
Well, after two whole days of trawling the internet for several different products, by many different suppliers, and the (excuse deleted) clusterf**k of problems I’ve had dealing with unreliable suppliers, and staff who haven’t got a clue, it has made a pleasant change to find a company that does care about it’s customers
My company deals with complete grounds maintenance, and I’ll be coming to jml hardware before I go anywhere else in future, should I need a product in your range.
Great customer service, outstanding quality, and a rapid delivery time………….I’ll not hesitate to recommend you to others.
Smashing job Phil, you and the rest at JML should be proud of yourselves, your level of service is becoming increasingly hard to find.
Thanks again

Thank you so much to Phil and Paul. I had been searching for the right lid to replace my broken one for a while. I telephoned Phil and sent him photos of my broken lid. Phil advised me what I needed and kept in touch. When he knew Paul was going to be in Nottingham, he arranged for him to visit my property to confirm what was required. I ordered my replacement lid with Phil on Wednesday, and it arrived on Friday. It's a perfect fit and looks much smarter than the one which was originally in place. Excellent service. Thank you for your help and advice.

Successfully fitted OB4 this morning - bent the fixing sides in as advised, notched the bottom to clear pipe and used bigger diameter screws as plastic sides of old box a bit weak on one side.

I am shocked, a firm that I had never heard of before, delivering such a fantastic service, I want to buy more from them, just to benefit from the great experience again. They deserve the highest of accolades. Don't take my word for this, try them. These guys are the gold standard for all other UK traders.
