Obtaining Keys - Lockbox Opening Instructions

A lockbox on the door to your condo will be set to a numeric combination known only to you. To open the lockbox and get your keys, push each corresponding numbered button of your secret code once. (NOTE: If you have used the same digit twice, the button will not click the 2nd time you punch the number - but that's OK.) After punching your combination, push down on the upper middle latch button with your thumb. While pushing the latch down with your thumb, move your thumb towards you and the front cover of the lock box will pull out, revealing your keys inside. If you make a mistake or need to re-try, release the middle upper latch and then push down on the middle lower latch and release it. This resets everything and will let you try again. If you arrive after dark, the outside light should be on so that you can see the lockbox. If the light is burned out, there is a flashlight behind the office on a white lawn chair in a tupperware container. Please return the flashlight immediately after use.

It is not necessary to put the cover back on unless you need to leave a key for someone else to pick up later. If you need to put the cover back on, no force or effort is required. Simply:

(a) Make sure any key(s) in the box are laying flat against the rear wall and do not interfere with insertion of the cover.

(b) Insert the cover at an angle so that the bottom of the cover is fully inserted at the bottom edge of the hole. Then punch in the combination.

(c) Push down the upper latch, and while keeping it depressed, push the cover in place and release the upper latch. Test the latch a few times to make sure the cover is inserted properly.

(d) If the cover does not slip back in place, make sure no keys are in the way and that nothing interferes with insertion of the front cover. Depress the lower latch, release, and try again.

(e) When departing, please leave your keys on the kitchen countertop and lock the door as you leave.
