Accidentally I mean. I have a situation where I am setting up "contactless" pickup and drop off for clients to deliver paperwork back and forth with me. The drop off I bought a very nice unit which will be permanent. The pick up side is temporary. Once the virus scare is done people can come in and handle what needs handling. So I have two large traditional mailboxes. I am going to put a programmable combination lock thru a hole drilled in the door handle/latch at the top of the door. The lock will have a specific number customized for the client each time it is used which keeps me in compliance with federal law. What is going to happen is that people are going to lay the lock down on their car seat, take their stuff and forget and drive away with the lock. It may be days before I see the lock again and meanwhile, no one else can use the box. Any ideas on how to secure a thin braided cable or such to a typical padlock? Just to attach it to the box so they cannot get it in their car? Has to be a very small lock so drilling the case is not an option. Some type of epoxy? Or maybe one of those clips that you can push on but cannot pull off? Racking my brain, what's left of it.
