Ordering online is a convenient way to shop without the hassle of going to a store. Today, you can order everything from living room sets to groceries without leaving the comfort of your home. Do you work long hours? Is a holiday coming? Shopping online is fast, easy, direct, and saves you time.
Your items are valuable. When they are delivered, they are left on your front porch for the entire world to see which can lead to theft. There are many ways to prevent someone from stealing your packages, such as a customized locking parcel box.
Install Security
A locking parcel box can be installed on your front porch or doorsteps. If you do not have a porch or stairs, a box can also be installed securely near your door. For example, you could install the box into your wall so that it cannot be picked up and removed. The delivery driver will simply put the items into the box and shut the door, and it will remain locked until you arrive home.
Create a Physical Barrier
Unlike a security camera, the physical locking feature of a lockbox secures your items. A parcel lockbox is a physical barrier. If you notice on camera a person stealing your packages on your front doorstep, they are long gone before the police can arrive.
It takes much more time and effort to break into a lockbox. Thieves are unable to pick up and walk away with the box because it is installed securely into the wall. You will protect your money and online orders with a physical lockbox.
