They will work just fine.

They may be more prone to breaking when stepped on than aluminium enclosures though 

Also, don't forget they will be more prone to noise/interference as well (they are non conductive so will not act as a shield to intereference).

Although metal enclosures cost more than plastic, I believe the extra cost is worth it for the benefits you get.
