Actually I was very impressed by the build quality - built like a tank.
Similar to those Van Vaults.

Angle grinder would do it mind.

Possible the same quality steel as used in some of the heavy duty filing
cabinets they once supplied where I worked. If someone had lost the key
the trick was to drill a hole just above the lock big enough for an
opened-up paper clip. The paper clip was then used to release the
locking mechanism.



I've been considering making up a dropbox out of ply with a Yale type
lock on the lid. Good enough for aroundhere...

The point is - would the delivery bloke actually _use_ something like
that, even if it was painted dayglow orange with a big sign saying
"Parcels in here please"?

I really doubt it. 8-)

It might just work if you have one particular delivery driver that you
can educate...

The question of a signature is another matter.
