Product Review
A Comprehensive MojoBox Review
My first impression was that the MojoBox has a great design. I like that it has a slim profile, which is rare for electronic lockboxes, but the quality of the build is very high. It’s durable, and sturdy, but it doesn’t take up a lot of space, and it won’t damage the door surface. It’s much lighter than all of the other electronic lockboxes, and it fits well on buildings with exterior storm doors.
