How does the mailman put mail in Mail Boss locking mailbox?
Many people are curious about how mail carriers deliver mail to secure locking mailboxes. At Mail Boss, we give priority to mailbox security while ensuring that mail delivery is efficient. According to USPS regulations, mail carriers cannot be required to use a key to access personal residential mailboxes. In response to this regulation, we have designed our mailboxes to facilitate deliveries without the need for a key. Here’s how it works:
Keyless Mail Delivery:
- Upper Unlocked Door: Mail carriers deposit your mail through the dedicated upper incoming mail door, eliminating the need for keys.
- Mail Slots or Bins: These strategically designed slots or bins securely capture incoming mail, preventing fishing attempts.
Enhanced Security Features:
- Locking Delivery Boxes: Made from robust, vandal-proof steel, these compartments offer an extra layer of protection.
- Secure Patented Anti-Pry Latch: Access your mail using a unique, laser-cut key that unlocks the secure latch. This ensures only authorized individuals can retrieve your mail.

Does my mail person in Oregon have a master key to your box. I know they can slip flat envelopes in, but how about small packages from Amazon, for instance? Will I have to provide a key to your brand of mailbox to the postman?
Hi Larry, great question! As with all USPS-approved curbside mailboxes, the mail carrier is not expected to carry your key. Furthermore, there is not a master key to our locks. Once installed, only the USPS is allowed to deliver to USPS mailboxes. The size of mail that the USPS typically delivers (for Amazon final mile delivery) is typically small enough to fit in our mailboxes, and we have different models capable of receiving small packages, such as the Package Master and Mail Manager series. Call us if you have any further questions, we are happy to assist.
