This metal cabinet is mounted in the wall of our hallway. Anybody recognize it? There is a patent stamp, but it is unreadable because it has been covered with too much paint. I think when I get around to stripping it down that will shed some light.
The doors are fairly heavy duty. About 1/4 inch thick. The locks (for which I dont have the keys) look pretty wimpy.
Ideas from people so far:
Wall Safe: Probably not b/c it is in the hallway, locks not beefy enough, and the doors are not inset which would allow them to easily be pried open.
Medicine Cabinet: In the hallway?
Old Electric Panel:
Cabinet for Housekeeping Chemicals:

I would guess electric or could be access to the original water heating for the bathrooms. When I did my my house I found a small tank metal tank hidden in the wall that was originally used to heat the water for the bathroom.
