Keter Delivery Box for Porch with Lockable Secure Storage Compartment to Keep Packages Safe, One Size, Brown

Looked over most larger sized, outdoor Parcel Boxes online, this one won for lots of reasons. Primary concern was durability and ease of setup/installation. The instructions with this one were actually very good, easy enough, lots of fitted snap connectors, and plastic lock pins. Just needed a screwdriver to build. Second reason was size, this will fit larger packages to about 18" long, with ample storage in the locking compartment. Because this is made of durable plastic we could drill through it to secure to the mailbox post.Can't recommend this enough, perfect for those rural customers, with long driveways off main roads, that Amazon now says they won't let drivers venture into. We lost "front porch" delivery about halfway through winter due to a constantly iced over gravel driveway. Now if Amazon would change their delivery location list options to include "Dropbox by Mailbox" that would be great. Our Amazon delivery drivers love it, no more wondering if their Amazon 2wd trucks will get stuck in mud or snow.Worth the money, and if you are interested in the signage in our picture let me know, you won't find it on Amazon. So far this parcel box is working though some orders from Amazon are a little too large to fit. But that's in the minority, most fit perfectly, and Amazon drivers love not having to drive down the 600' long gravel drive.

It was easy to assemble and very strong. It requires an effort to open and steal shipments inside. Adds security to the parcel delivery.

Nice drop off box not too bad to put together. Directions could be more thorough. It’s light definitely looks good. Gives me comfort knowing my packages ain’t gonna get wet.

Very happy with this purchase! I've been using it now for a few months and it has worked great! After assembling it, then placing it on my front porch I added gravel to the base (as recommended by another posted review) for added weight. I also bought signs (can order on Amazon) for it, which has been successful in delivery drivers placing the packages inside the box. I also purchased a small master lock/key for the door, this keeps the door from popping open and keeps others from being able to take your packages. I highly recommend this product, and I also highly recommend incorporating the other few items/steps I've mentioned above. Since placing the box we've had no issues with porch pirates. I also feel much better knowing that if I'm not home and a package arrives it has a safer, more secured place to be. Also, if you have a security or doorbell camera I do recommend placing your box in range of your camera. This has been especially helpful for when delivery drivers put packages into the box my camera notifies me of motion, which helps me know when a package has been dropped in and/or also alerts me that someone is at the box. I would definitely re-purchase this item again if I ever needed to, it has already paid for itself by my packages not being stolen.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! Looking at the reviews it seems either you get lucky or you get very unlucky, like I did, I can't even begin to fully explain the issues I ran into that were fully the fault of the instructions, quality and overall design of the box. I worked on this thing for 3 or more hours, for the first hour it was fine and I quickly got to the final steps, but I had no idea just how quickly it was about to become a nightmare. Firstly, the instructions are a unclear and have ZERO written directions to help you if you're confused by the INACCURATE drawings. I followed the illustrations, which includes confusing emphasis on where to and where not to put the pieces,the illustrations are very detailed and could work as textless instructions but if you're relying solely on those drawings they have to be correct or else you put it together incorrectly. They're not correct and will show pieces connected in different places, different holes, and on different panels in almost every step which makes clarity impossible. I did everything the exact way they illustrated in the same order yet once I got to the final steps and was putting in the lip piece that goes on the inside under the lid hinges, I'm assuming it keeps water out plus it covers gaps, it couldn't lign up with the screw hole and didn't fit. I noticed the door had been installed in the top peg holes, which is what the instructions show, when it should be in the second peg holes. Therefore, you CAN'T put the lip in because there's no space, simple mistake I can just take it apart and move it down. Well taking this thing apart is not easy, Im not even sure if it's possible, because there is no directions on how to do so nor visible indications to even guess. The exterior has nowhere to pull or unscrew and you can't take it apart by reaching inside either because almost every peg and snap ends up concealed therefore you have no way to take it apart. Which is good but if you make a little mistake you will have to fight to get this thing apart and you WILL accidentally crack some pieces, and if you're not careful, break it entirely. The only possible point to start is at the very bottom where there's accessible snaps, simple you can just just pull it apart by pushing them in, from there you could work your way up to remove a whole panel, except it is NOT that simple. It was nearly impossible, using my hands and various slim wedges, I slowly pride it apart being as careful as possible but it was not working. I couldn't turn around at this point, can't install a piece and the doors couldn't work, so I just had to push forward and force it apart while trying to not break it. After more than an hour of this I got the one panel off but ended up with a few cracks on the edges and some thin pieces of platic on the interior broken off. Nothing serious but I was very close to bigger damages which could have been avoided if the instructions were accurate. Even if you made a little mistake instead you'd be in the same situation. Once I had it apart and I could remove the pegs, so I could move the doors, I installed the lip then put the doors in the correct place and thought the war was over but I was sorely wrong. Thankfully I did not put the front panel back on yet and that allowed me to test the lid and that's when I noticed the dropping doors weren't working correctly. They were getting caught on each other so the lid couldn't open, I could move them into the right position and then be able to open as normal, but when the lid closed they'd end up back in the same spot and stuck all over again. Sure that would keep my packages safe. If they could open the lid enough to even fit them into the thing! So I went back over the directions and made sure everything was aligned, in the right position, on the correct side, and every piece together as shown while also working around the inaccurate illustrations that would change important details every page. So there was some guess work but its a pretty simple thing the set up and the pieces are actually labeled with letters so you know that door A should be on the side of panel F (example) yet when everything was together, according to their instructions, the doors STILL would not work correctly and were getting caught on each other or not dropping down when closed instead just getting stuck on each other. I spent so much time rearranging the cords, moving the small door back up to the top peg hole then back to the second that didn't work, looked through the instructions dozens of times, and just trying literally all the positions and configurations possible to get this thing to work correctly. At this point it had been three hours of fighting, disassembling, reassembling, looking over the instructions and customer reviews and photos so all I could do was try to find the problem and fix it. But I started connecting different things I had noticed along the way and realized the issue was that the panels were all warped slightly in different ways. Curving where it shouldn't which I notice when I took it out of the box but assumed it was supposed to be like that thinking it had a tapered shape for aesthetics, then as I was putting it together I noticed the curving wasn't always the same on each side, while putting the four panels together things weren't lining up so it took some effort to snap them into place and onto the base I actually had to bend one at the bottom to get it positioned so it would go onto the base. There was also a very corners where the plastic had gaps in it because it was not lining up together. The direction the panel curved is the way the gap was being pulled add on top that some of the pegs also arrived cut up by machinery I believe my issue is that the plastic is so warped it's causing the doors to touch together just enough to where they get stuck when trying to lift the lid. The only picture I got was of the messed up pegs which I took without knowing the ordeal I was about to deal with. All together it feels poorly designed and made which can be exacerbated by the inaccurate instructions. So you either get lucky and get one that isn't in some way warped and putting it together is straight forward or you get unlucky and get one that's warped and will cost you your sanity. It's not all bad, it could have been really good, and I'm still going to use it, but with one door installed so that it gets in the way, since a box with that and a lock is better than nothing when you have porch pirates. It's a 50/50 on if it's a waste of money or not. Good luck

Took me 2 days to put together. I had the small shelf that goes in the inside placed on the top and not the bottom. I had to take it apart. Wasn’t easy! I was pissed! Good thing about this krate is that it’s very hard to take apart, and none of the pieces broke on me thank god. Make sure to follow the patterns on the pieces so you can put everything together the first time. I bought the mail carrier sign and nailed it on. Going on a month and all my packages have been placed inside. I put heavy weights inside so no one will try and run off with it. But the box is very heavy alone and would be awkward to pick up and carry away.
