Comment on Locking Mailbox Helps Prevent Mail Theft and Identity Theft by MailBoss

Great article. However, one VERY important thing to note is that many ‘locking mailboxes’ offer only an illusion of security but really can be broken into with a screwdriver or crowbar (some even by hand!) in just seconds.

This is a major problem, because the homeowner thinks their mail is more safe and may leave their mail longer than otherwise, and thieves know this and exploit these faux-security ‘locking’ mailboxes. With the Oasis shown, for example, an average man can reach his arm into the box and grab the contents from the inside, without a key!

With the epidemic of identity theft Homeowners need to invest in protecting their mail and identities. But most locking mailboxes are not worth their weight in junk mail. A few good ones out there are (1) The Fort Knox (2) The Armadillo (3) The Mail Boss.

Homeowners should look for a heavy gauge steel (not aluminum or plastic) locking mailbox with a heavy-duty anty pry locking mechanism, not just a popcorn cam and lock.
