Troubleshooting

Mail not staying dry

Ensure the mailbox is securely closed and the lid seal is intact. Check that the installation location provides adequate shelter from direct rain and wind.

Flag mechanism is stiff

Gently check for any obstructions around the flag pivot. A very small amount of lubricant designed for outdoor metal mechanisms might help, but use sparingly to avoid attracting dirt.

Difficulty removing mail

Ensure mail is inserted flat and not forced into the box. The opening is wide, so mail should generally slide out easily. Check for any internal obstructions.

Visible corrosion or discoloration

Although aluminum is weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to certain environmental factors can cause surface changes. Clean with a mild detergent and water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
