ABSTRACT:
A mailbox having a dual access mechanism is provided. The mailbox includes a housing having a pair of opposing doors pivotally mounted at each end. The opposing doors are interconnected by a flexible cable that extends along and adjacent to each side of the housing. At each door, the cable is received within a U-shaped tubular member pivotally mounted to each door. The mailbox can also include tubular elements mounted to the sides of the housing for further guiding the cable within the mailbox. The cable is provided with a predetermined length such that when one of the doors of the mailbox is opened, the cable causes the opposing door to close.
