Exactly the type of mailbox I was looking for.
I have had this mailbox for 5 years and I love it because it has a back door so I don't have to step into the busy street. I also modified it so a flag drops on the back door when the mail arrives. Its pretty sturdy but you could replace the locks with better ones that are more pickproof.. I got mine at Lowes for $110.
Thanks for this video! It was super helpful. I couldn't figure out how the outgoing mail would work and you answered that for me!
😂
Can boxed packages fit into it, i.e., so the mailman can get them in there?
My parents have a wall mount one that seems sturdier than this one. And it’s quite tall too so when they go on a long vacation the mail will just pile up in there for a long period of time securely.
Do you know where your parents purchased theirs? Do you know the brand name? Thanks!
The problem with locking mailboxes they're showing the key holes these days instead of covering them up with something that's usually-friendly big enough but tight enough four big packages without having a huge mailbox
My mailman is notorious for being Lazy and doesn't like to close no ones mailbox door. So now my mailbox is all broken and unfunctional because he left the door open and the automatic gate hit the door and completely tore it off. I'm wondering if with this type of mailbox will he still be able to leave the door open or will he Have to closed it to leave the mail? Thanks!
Will it withstand an attack by crow bar because that is what the thieves use here?
Could an ipsy box fit inside it
Thanks for the review!
wouldn't a mail boss be even better for just 10 bucks more ???
get them in extra large also mailbox I have extra large one it fits big packages
How did you install it to the post? I see the screws but did you get a screw gun into the mail box?
This is great I just bought mine today and found your video wanted to see what others thought of it
Bought this and it survived exactly 0 break-in attempts. Crowbar opened it in about 5 seconds.
that sucks... unfortunately a crowbar can defeat most amazon branded safes.
Where hell do you live where people break into a mailbox
@@dnxl1821 We have folks who walk through my, and surrounding, neighborhoods in the early afternoon (when most people are at work) and open every mailbox as they walk, looking for packages they can snatch. Just saw someone doing that this afternoon, a "teen" wearing jeans and a black hoodie with hood up over his head, even though it was in the middle 80s and sunny. No point calling the police. They tell you it's not their jurisdiction, and that you need to call the Post Office and file a complaint, and that leads to zero action on anyone's part.
Yes bin hit by two cars and two teens beat it with bats beating it back in place every time. Ready for a new one soon.
You can rip the door right off of this one, just happened to me
Hello, thanks for this information. However, I need a mailbox that only opens and locks in the front. The back of the mailbox back is enclosed in a stucco encasement. Any advice? Thanks.
Check fort knox boxes.
how to screw the screws? From the bottom of the posts? you need a long screw then
Have u stuck a box in their and tried to get it out
Criminals will just break the lock, that's what they did to mine.
Yes it's massive, but keep in mind the slot where mail goes in is tiny and things won't be stacked neatly on the bottom. Packages that would fit in a normal box aren't going to go in this so you'll have smaller packages left at the door and might want to keep that in mind if people are terrible enough to steal your mail.
It was bad for a few yrs in MN. For me having the mailbox keeps the mind at ease when 99% of the other boxes are still regular style boxes still. Plus we can got a few days and not check it and still feel comfortable! Not 100% secure, but it's better than 0%! As always the choice is yours be a victim or make it annoying for them!
Have you seen Fort Knox mailboxes?
I have seen them, but you can only buy them online (from memory) when I made the video I wanted to buy one at a Brick&Mortar store, and this was the best one available.
onza04 gotcha I’m looking at the fort know but they are expensive the one I think I’m going with is 148 pounds just for mail box
@@ivanscountrymusicandcars2357 148lbs for a mailbox is a little nutty. I think if you live in a rural area where you consistently have theft it would be a good investment. But in a city like surrounding, most robbers are looking for quick hit / run opportunities. Just by having a simple lock on my box, I feel will deter them. If they want it they will take it, regardless of what mailbox you own.
It is a little nutty. I ordered one today. Should be the last one I buy. Anything worth doing is worth doing way overboard.
@@ivanscountrymusicandcars2357 lmao! Buy once and buy the best! I commend you for the purchase.
Thank you onza01. This is a very nicely done video. Can large envelopes . like those deliveries from Amazon, get into the box completely without being stuck somehow ?
I've seen some large envelope style packaged stuffed inside the box. Long story short YES. They fit inside.
@@onza04 good to know. thx,
I hope this kind of mailbox is available here in the Philippines.
it looks like your hand can easily reach inside.
if you were the size of leprechaun maybe..
I tried putting my hand in it and it’s hard
Are magazines or catalogs able to fit into this mailbox
Yes
Whats the site for it do
dont mailmen have a master key for things like this
Can they leave packages or padded folders?
Yep. Small packages in plastic bags for great inside!
Again keeps the honest people honest. But if a thief wants the contents inside they will get it!
I would say Mailboss or Fort Knox is better. I see these broken into all the time.
How do u send mail out
There is a spot for letters. A small metal clip!
Aramis Urbina on the lid
5:06 does anyone even watch the video?
Looks very bendable as other reviews said.
How does the mail person get mail out?
You use a Key on the back or front
@@onza04 THE MAILMAN? How can they get the mail out?
5:06 did you even watch the video?
@@markreynolds4715 Thanks smart face (you could have just left the stamp).
You can pull mail out easily using a stick and chewing gum. I saw a display of this at a store and wondered why people thought it was so secure when it’s clearly not.
It’s easier to get the mail from the other standard mailboxes ;)
That cost too much, I was looking at spending no more than $25.
What does it cost you when you get your mail stolen? Free, but at what cost.
@@onza04 True, how big of packages can mail carriers put in there? and is it possibly for thieves to still steal mail?
It's possible but hopefully they go to your neighbors box instead!
It can hold plastic bag packages mostly
@@onza04 I hate my neighbors. like the way you think
