Battery box for 2 group 27 batteries?

Next year I am planning on getting a pair of 6 volt GC2s and a locking diamond plate box but for now I want to just add a second group 27. The box I have is just the standard cheapo plastic box but it takes up just slightly more than half of my battery rack. Not sure I could fit another box on there without cutting a small piece off one corner. Do they make a box that holds two without breaking the bank? Probably only need it for 6 months before I do the upgrade.

Planning a several week trip for next spring but I need more than one 27 in the mean time while I plan out the charging/storage upgrades.

The box for my two 6v batteries didn't fit between the trailer frame either. I ended up using some pressure treated lumber and a marine abs plastic shelf to raise the box high enough to clear the frame. Photo at https://flic.kr/p/jHeT3Z
