Provided is an enclosure with an integrated hydrant. The enclosure includes a fluid flow conduit that transfers fluid from a fluid supply tube to a fluid outlet, which may be associated with the backflow preventer. The enclosure has a conduit that carries water from the fluid supply tube to the backflow preventer. Thus, a lower profile, lighter, and more aesthetically pleasing enclosure is provided.

1. An enclosure with integral hydrant, comprising: a plate having a first surface and a second surface;a lip integrally interconnected to and extending from said first surface;a recess integrated into said plate and extending from said first surface to said second surface, said recess defining a protrusion extending from said second surface, said protrusion having a third surface spaced from and generally parallel with said second surface;a first aperture through said plate and spaced from said recess;a second aperture through said third surface, said second aperture being a fluid outlet;a first boss associated with said first aperture and extending from said second surface;a second boss associated with said second aperture and extending from said third surface, said first boss spaced from said second boss;a fluid conduit connecting said second boss to said recess;wherein said plate, said lip, said protrusion, said first boss, said second boss, and said fluid conduit form a monolithic structure;a control tube having a proximal end interconnected to said first boss;a fluid supply tube having a proximal end interconnected to said second boss; anda valve with a fluid supply inlet, a first outlet interconnected to a distal end of said fluid supply tube, and a second outlet interconnected to a distal end of said control tube. 2. The enclosure of claim 1, further comprising a hinge plate interconnected to at least one of said lip and said first surface, and a door operatively interconnected to said hinge plate, said door capable of assuming a closed configuration wherein said first surface is concealed. 3. The enclosure of claim 2, wherein said hinge plate includes at least one protrusion that receives a fastener that interconnects said hinge plate to said first surface. 4. The enclosure of claim 2, wherein said door includes a lock. 5. The enclosure of claim 2, wherein said door has a texture that generally corresponds with brick or stone. 6. The enclosure of claim 2, wherein said door is operatively interconnected to a lower portion of said lip. 7. The enclosure of claim 1, further comprising a rod positioned within the control tube, the rod operatively associated with a stem screw positioned within said first aperture and protruding through said plate, the rod having a distal end with a plunger that is adapted to selectively open and close said valve when said rod is moved from a first position to a second position when said stem screw is rotated. 8. The enclosure of claim wherein said second aperture is associated with a backflow preventer positioned within said recess, wherein when said valve is open water is expelled through said backflow preventer. 9. An enclosure with integral hydrant, comprising: a plate having a first surface and a second surface;a lip integrated to and extending from said first surface;a recess integrated into said plate and extending from said plate, said recess defining a protrusion extending from said plate, said protrusion having a surface spaced from and generally parallel with said plate;a boss spaced from said protrusion and extending from said plate, said boss having an aperture associated with a control tube;a fluid opening associated with said recess;a fluid supply tube interconnected to said surface of said protrusion and associated with said fluid opening; andwherein said plate, said lip, said protrusion, and said boss form a monolithic structure. 10. The enclosure of claim 9, further comprising a hinge plate interconnected to at least one of said lip and said plate, and a door operatively interconnected to said hinge plate. 11. The enclosure of claim 10, wherein said hinge plate includes at least one protrusion that receives a fastener that interconnects said hinge plate to said plate. 12. The enclosure of claim 10, wherein said door includes a lock. 13. The enclosure of claim 10, wherein said door has a texture that generally corresponds with brick or stone. 14. The enclosure of claim 10, wherein said door is operatively interconnected to a lower portion of said lip. 15. An enclosure with integral hydrant, comprising: a plate having a first surface and a second surface;a door operatively interconnected to said plate and configured to assuming a closed configuration wherein said first surface is concealed;a lip extending from at least one of said plate and said door;a recess integrated into said plate and extending from said first surface to said second surface, said recess defining a protrusion extending from said second surface, said protrusion having a third surface spaced from and generally parallel with said second surface;a first aperture through said plate and spaced from said recess;a second aperture through said third surface, said second aperture being a fluid outlet;a first boss associated with said first aperture and extending from said second surface;a second boss associated with said second aperture and extending from said third surface, said first boss spaced from said second boss;a fluid conduit connecting said second boss to said recess; andwherein said plate, said protrusion, said first boss, said second boss, and said fluid conduit comprise a monolithic structure;a control tube having a proximal end interconnected to said first boss;a fluid supply tube having a proximal end interconnected to said second boss;a valve with a fluid supply inlet, a first outlet interconnected to a distal end of said fluid supply tube, and a second outlet interconnected to a distal end of said control tube. 16. The enclosure of claim 15, wherein said door includes a lock. 17. The enclosure of claim 15, further comprising a rod positioned within the control tube, the rod operatively associated with a stem screw positioned within said first aperture and protruding through said plate, the rod having a distal end with a plunger that is adapted to selectively open and close said valve when said rod is moved from a first position to a second position when said stem screw is rotated. 18. The enclosure of claim 15, wherein said second aperture is associated with a backflow preventer positioned within said recess, wherein when said valve is open water is expelled through said backflow preventer.
