Two 120-litre bins behind one front: the Dagobert 2 boxes in Anthracite

In these customer photos, the Dagobert 2 boxes in Anthracite stand exactly where two bins are otherwise most disruptive: directly against the house façade, in the niche beside the entrance door, by the garage, under the carport, or as a freestanding row at the edge of the garden in front of the hedge. Two 120-litre bins disappear behind a continuous slatted front, leaving a calm dark surface instead of two brightly coloured plastic lids.

The lid lies flat and opens upwards individually for each compartment. This is the classic choice when you want quick access from above and do not need a planted lid. You can find boxes with this configuration collected in the category Garbage bin box with hinged lid.

Who benefits from a 2-box garbage bin box for 120 litres?

The 2 boxes for 120 litres are the most compact option that still accommodates two separate waste fractions. They fit wherever the available space is narrow and a 240-litre box would simply be too deep.

Typical areas of use

  • Single-family home with two bins on the standard collection schedule
  • narrow strip between the house wall and the edge of the patio
  • niche beside the entrance door, garage door or outdoor heat pump unit
  • terraced house or semi-detached home with limited front-garden space
  • edge of a carport or driveway where the box runs alongside
  • freestanding spot at the edge of the garden in front of a hedge or fence

Typical combinations with two 120-litre bins

  • general waste and organic waste
  • general waste and waste paper
  • waste paper and lightweight packaging
  • organic waste and yellow bin

If you need more compartments or a different bin size, you can find the appropriate ranges under 2-box garbage bin boxes and garbage bin box 120 litres.

Galvanised steel in Anthracite: why the box can stay outdoors

The Dagobert is made of galvanised sheet steel with a scratch-resistant coating. Technically, this consists of a 35 μm organic coating on hot-dip galvanised Z225 sheet steel, tested for corrosion and UV resistance according to RC4/RUV4 in compliance with EN 10169-2021. The hinges are also galvanised.

Anthracite corresponds to the RAL 7016 colour shade, a dark matte grey. The photos show clearly why this shade is chosen so often: it recedes against light-coloured render, sits quietly beside grey patio slabs and looks almost like a silhouette in front of a green thuja hedge. The outer sides of the slats are painted in the selected colour, while the inner sides are kept lighter.

The front runs all the way around as a slatted band; there is no enclosed back wall. This keeps the air moving, which is especially helpful for the organic waste bin. You can find more models in the same material category under Metal wheelie bin boxes.

Hinged lid with gas strut and doors: two ways to access the box

Each compartment has its own lid, which can be lifted gently with gas struts and stays open at the top. Two of the photos show what moves along with it: A chain connects the box lid and the bin lid, so the bin lid is automatically lifted when opening. So you lift once and can put your waste straight in.

The lid can be mounted on either side. You decide whether it opens forwards or backwards and align it with your access side. If the box is under a canopy or close to a wall, this is the point you should clarify before installation.

To pull out the bin, open the front door. The door hinge can be positioned on the left or right; the customer photos with the doors open show how far both leaves swing open and how freely the bin then stands. The lid and doors are fitted with a standard toggle latch and are therefore securely closed. If you want more security, you can optionally add a keyed lock.

Space and ground: what you should clarify before setting it up

The 2 boxes for 120 liters measure 118 cm wide, 68 cm deep and 114 cm high externally and weigh around 52 kg. Each compartment provides 51.5 cm of width, 63.0 cm of depth and 104.0 cm of clear height. Plan additional space in front of the box for opening the doors and clearance above the box for the lid.

Dagobert has no height-adjustable feet, so the ground should be as level as possible. According to the product page, a slight slope is not a problem; concrete slabs or a paved surface are ideal. The photos show exactly that: patio slabs along the facade, paving stones by the carport, and a neatly laid slab foundation in front of the lawn. If you place it on grit or gravel, compact the surface well beforehand.

You do not have to bolt the box down. For exposed locations, an optional mounting kit with impact anchors for concrete paving and concrete is available. It is delivered as a flat-pack kit that can be transported in a car. You can find all dimensions, colors and options on the product page Dagobert garbage bin box 2 boxes.
