Review Summary For : KF7P Metalwerks cable entry panel/single point ground
Reviews: 43MSRP: 80
Description:
Custom made metal NEMA style box specifically for hams! Use these entry panels to mount
lightening arrestors and/or ground cables before they enter your house or shack. Boxes
contain copper mounting plate for arrestors or bulkhead connectors. Grommets in bottom
allow coax to enter without damaging the jacket and are large enough for a PL259. The lid
swings on a stainless steel hinge, and is gasketed to keep water out of box. Made from
galvanized steel or aluminum. Each box is custom built to user specifications. Pricing starts
at $80 for a 13"x13" galvanized steel box suitable for up to 6 arrestors.
Product is in production

Outstanding quality and service! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
We built a new house and the XYL demanded I keep it tidy and neat, with no "unsightly" coax cables hanging about. I scratched my head, then went to Google. I stumbled upon Chris's business, but realized this was the answer.

A few emails later, I had a box on the way. It arrived quickly, well packed, and built like a Sherman tank. I'm serious, these things are tough.

It looks great on the back of the shop, it keeps everything neat, and I have a great lightning protection/ground system to boot.

Highly recommended.

Great product and company Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
After 50 years of hamming I am finally able to put up a tower at the home QTH and want everything *just so*. Of course the entry panel and lightning protection plan was key and Chris has shown that KF7P Metalwerks is the perfect accomplice.

From taking the time to chat on the phone and discuss my overall requirements and ideas to exchanging cable plans and new products via email I could count on Chris to have quick and accurate feedback as we closed on the final design which was fabricated and delivered within 10 days.

I highly recommend Chris and KF7P Metalwerks and wish there were more companies out there like his.

I could easily be a fan boy. Chris' entry panel is superbly designed and executed. Quality work and great service. He answered his phone on a Saturday on a ski trip to take care of a question I had. Followed up the following week to make sure I got the answers I needed.

Quality Product Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Since I'm building a new house, I ordered the 14"x14" entrance panel based on the excellent reviews and web site information. I also ordered and had four lighting arrestors preinstalled. Both my wife and builder were impressed with the quality of this product. I look forward to installing this panel outside of my ham shack in a month or so.

Quality second to none. Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I can't say enough about Chris KF7P, his products and his service. The cable panel box I received is top notch quality, no plastic parts here, this box will last a lifetime. The box was built perfectly to my specifications and was shipped quickly. I have a picture of my panel on my QRZ page.

Great product, Geat support Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
The entrance panel is very well thought out and well built. I opted for the stainless steel version and am sure it will outlast me.

Chris will bend over backwards for you to get you setup with everything you need to do it right.

Also my entry panel came with candy in it!

Outstanding Product and Workmanship, 1st Class Customer Service Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
As all the other reviews indicate, Chris, KF7P builds outstanding products. I recently ordered an entry panel/SPG box and when it was delivered I could not get over what a really beautiful piece of work it is. Design and Craftsmanship are top notch; Chris obviously **knows** metalwork and how to make it both functional and good looking. The XYL even thought it looks professional and "like it belongs" on the house; not an easy judgement to get with my ham radio gear!

But what still makes the strongest impression on me is the customer service from Chris. It is like the old days when a manufacturer REALLY cared about his customers. I had a few unusually requests, including a bit different installation scheme and Chris worked with me, looked over my sketches, made some very helpful suggestions and then beat his delivery estimate by several days. I feel this product is work every penny - no actually more than that - and I seriously encourage others to support KF7P Metalwerks. We need OEMs and Vendors like this!!!

Really solid stuff from Chris. Well built, designed to really last a lifetime. Looking forward to getting it mounted for a nice, clean, professional looking installation.

Highly recommended if you need an entry panel!
