Mailbox Maintenance - Changing a Commercial Mailbox Lock 

Video Transcript for: Mailbox Maintenance: Changing a Lock - - Florence Corporation 

- Hi, I'm Tony with Florence Manufacturing.
- Today I'd like to demonstrate how to change the lock on your Florence mailbox.
- To change the lock on your Florence mailbox, you'll need two basic tools, a half-inch nut driver and a pair of channel locks.
- To begin, you'll need to contact the post office so a letter carrier can give you access to the mailbox.
- Once the letter carrier has let you in, simply pop the latch.
- Once the door is open, just locate the lock that you're needing to replace.
- I'm going to take my half-inch nut driver and remove the nut.
- Once the nut is off, simply open the door, remove the cam, which exposes the clip.
- After you remove the cam, close the gate.
- Next, simply take your channel locks, pull down on the clip, and the lock comes out.
- It's always a good idea to pull the key out of the lock to prevent breaking.
- I'll take the lock, insert it back in.
- Take the clip, using the channel locks, get underneath the clip, and squeeze up, and be sure to always use a new clip when installing a new lock.
- With the new lock and clip installed, you are now ready to install the cam.
- And note that the cam is square and should go on like so.
- Tighten the nut with your half-inch driver.
- With the cam in place, your lock is ready for use.
- If you need to order replacement locks, or if you need instructions, please contact your authorized Florence dealer.

Mailbox Maintenance - How to Touch Up a Commercial Mailbox 

Video Transcript for: Mailbox Maintenance: Touch Up Paint - - Florence Corporation

- Hi, I'm Renee and I work at Florence Manufacturing and over time with use, your mailboxes get scratched and I'm going to show you how to touch them up.
- Before you want to touch up your area that's scratched, you want to clean it up with Simple Green.
- When you order touch up paint spray or touch up paint pen from your authorized Florence dealer, you want to shake it up for five minutes before use.
- After you shake it up for five minutes, you want to apply pressure on the tip on a flat surface and wait until the paint appears.
- After the tip is covered in paint, you can begin the process.
- Apply the paint in thin layers.
- When you first apply the paint, it may not look the same color but let it dry for a few minutes.
- That pretty much sums it up for touching up your mailboxes and if you need to order any touch up paint, just call your authorized Florence dealer.
