    Try some dry graphite lubricant in the lock. If that doesn't help you'll probably need to trip over to the USPS office on Prentice Drive to request a new lock set. The Broadlands USPS office might help too, but I've been referred many times to Prentice from Broadlands for what I thought were local issues - so you might as well start there. Good luck.

    The mailboxes are property of and maintained by the USPS. You can request new keys from them.
