LOST KEYS

Post by Dandanaher »

Hi everyone,
I wonder if anyone can help me. I've just bought a house which has its own ex Royal Mail Pillar Box. It has GR VI on the front- I assume this was George the Sixth. Unfortunately, the previous owner has lost the keys. Does anybody know where I can get a spare key from, or have any advice on how to replace the lock? We don't have a letterbox, so the postman wont deliver any post at present.
Hope you can help!

Locksmith - ROMEC (an in house team) replace ours but any locksmith should be able to do it.

You can set up a keep safe and collect your mail from your local office while you are waiting....
