Description
Print and attach this to whatever to add a slightly secure latch!
Instructions
Not terribly secure, but better than nothing!

If you indented a bolt on the front and screw it in from behind you wont be able to remove the screw without removing the box and improving the security of the lock!
This specific version has through holes to work for this particular box. I'll upload the other two later today. One with counter-sunk holes for securing a nut and a filled hole for screw boring.
The issue I had was that machine screws stripped the holes too easily and wood screws tore the layers apart. This time around, I had to use drywall screws to engage in the wood of the box to be most rigid. But perhaps drywall screws will not mangle the plastic as much and engage better.
I have
a few more tests to do. But thanks for the feedback!

a simply improvement might be to add a blanking plate that slides on behind the padlock to prevent access to the screws while locked
