Review on πŸ“¬ PRIME-LINE S 4573 Mailbox Lock Replacement - Rotate 90Β°, Counterclockwise Opening, National Keyway, Nickel Finish by John Hashman

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It works. Something like. UPDATE: REPLACES IT

The biggest problem is that the keyway won't accept the key about 25% of the time. The keyway does not have a flap that prevents water and dirt from entering the toggle switches. I have an outside mailbox so weather is an issue - if your mailbox isn't in a secure, fenced area then this lock probably won't suit you. Inexpensive, but I suppose I'll have to replace that mailbox. castle all year round. The problem is that the keys don't slide easily over the key. WD-40 helps a little, but messy. If you use the lock every day, it's tiring to fiddle with keys that don't go in and out easily. Next time I'll use a slightly better quality.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Will write later
