Mailboxes


In rural areas, roadside mailboxes are common. These mailboxes are found along the road which is in the walk through entry to the home's front yard. Most of these mailboxes are made of durable materials such as aluminum, steel, brass and others with non-lock front swing door access and a rear lock door access. Roadside mailboxes is more advantages for postmen especially if homes are far from the road or with the home owner shave dogs around.

Once the mail is deposited through the front access panel on the front, it is secured and no one can get through unless it is opened at the rear door. Homeowners provide their own keys for security. These mailboxes are usually mounted in heavy duty standing columns made from masonry, wood or steel.
