how to change, by using commands, the width of lines (whiskers, median, outliers, etc.) and axes of a boxplot?

I have plotted several boxplots, but I need to change the format of them. I'd like to make the lines of the boxplots (whiskers, quartiles, median, outliers, etc.) and their axes thicker. However, I don't know how to do that by using commands. Could you help me?

Call boxplot in the foloowing way:
h = boxplot(rand(100,6));
set(h,{'linew'},{2})
or use directly:
set(findobj(gca,'type','line'),'linew',2)
To set axes width:
set(gca,'linew',2)

It only changes the line thickness of the bounding box of the plot, but not "the lines of the boxplots (whiskers, quartiles, median, outliers, etc.) "...
