Its front- and rear-locking access door allows you to unlock and retrieve the mail while standing in your yard.

Use the spring steel clip inside the top door to send outgoing mail.Keep in mind that this listing is just for the box itself and doesn’t come with a matching post, so you’ll need to purchase one separately.”

“Finding the best lockable mailbox can give you some peace of mind when it comes to securing your mail and packages. But lockable mailboxes need to meet specific USPS requirements since postal workers can’t accept mailbox keys.

Enter the Mail Boss 7207 Package Master, an extra-large capacity mailbox that is sure to keep your packages safe.
This mailbox has a lot of added security features, like an anti-pry latch, a vandal-resistant flag, and a tamper-proof and anti-pick lock. Just keep in mind that while you can place your outgoing mail in a shielded section of the mailbox, it isn’t kept in the lockable portion. The post is also sold separately, so be prepared for additional post and hardware costs.”
