Has anyone had an issue with the locked door being pryed open by mail theives? And if so how easy was it for them to pry it open?

No issues with mine. It is also a challenge to pull mail out from the delivery slot.

Never had this happen. I suppose if thieves wanted to pry open the door it wouldn't be too hard. But that's true of many locked doors!

Thanks for your interest! Yes it does come with a lock. It will accept incoming mail, but not outgoing mail.

No. you cannot remove mail when top is locked. you must unlock, lift top. then remove mail. if u only have a magazine and letters, the mailbox is wide enough. any news paper ads r folded in half.

I never had that problem. Is the unit in the mail box set up right? It should beep when the door is open. the arrow should point up. there is also a reset button on the house unit. Sorry that all I can tell you.

Mail can only be accessed from the rear locked door. BTW, we love our box. It holds a lot of mail.

The only issue we had with shipping, was one of the doors was inverted when it arrived - causing a tiny gap in the seal when we had to pull the door back through. Other than the tiny gap, we did not have any other issues.

We haven't had any issue, it turns and locks into place and then has a key lock. It would be very difficult to open without the key I believe.

How open is it? If the lock is not in the correct setting for your preferred use, it does not completely close. However, if it is open a sizable distance, I would say it is defective. Ask for a replacement. When properly working, it is a really great door. My cats love it and I am pleased with it.

It appears like the lock you see on a truck toolbox. Not the highest security but it isn't something you could open with a screwdriver I don't think. It is much better than not having any lock on your mailbox.

I honestly haven't had it all that long, however, I did check my door after receiving your question and I have not noticednoticed any problems to this point. Hope it works just as well for you.

I'm finding mine kinda tough to open, but it depends on the size of the doorway, I think. If you can get it so the handle is locked in to one of the holes I think it'll be tricky. I have mine in a larger entrance and it's fine, but the smaller entrance the lock handle was sticking straight up and was easier to open.

I have not had a problem with any mail getting stuck at the top with the MailBoss box that we have. I guess you can't control the lazy mailmen, though.

The door at top does not have a key. Remove the floor of the top part and mail drops all the way to bottom making it unable to reach. There is a lock to the bottom section of the box where your mail is now stored that makes it secure and can hold many days of mail. I really like mine.

mine did not come with a key. I just simply let the postman put it in my side opening, which I leave just a crack open..not enough for passerby to notice. My mailman's head exploded when I mentioned to him to have a key to it, though it's ok if you have a cluster of boxes like the street next door. Sorry, but the front opening is just too small for packages (it's theft resistant)

Hi there Kalra my name is Glenn and I am a maintenance Tech, I have had the same entry lock on my apartment door, I am slightly confused, if we are talking about The sclage FE575 plymouth keypad lock,the only thing that is done from outside is pressing the keypad, or using your key,and yes when entering your code is does Click open, other than that maybe the lock is faulty, my advise if it still under warranty and not to old is to send it back to schlage,I hope this shed some light on Your problem, Glenn.

same on mine. I just installed mine, setting up the master code/user codes as directed, and it did respond as the manual. but no code work at all. can't open the door at all.

From a security standpoint the box is not very secure. I used a Screwdriver and a Hammer and it took 45 Seconds to wedged open the door. From a key combination it is also not very secure because the combination does not have to be entered in any specific order as long as the numbers that you chose are punched in the door will open which decreases the amount of tried needed to get in!
