Thankfully the box happens to be right outside the bedroom window so if somebody messes with it I will hopefully hear them. Just to be safe I put a flimsy lock on it as well, this is so they have to make even more noise breaking the lock, not to actually keep them from doing it. The Flimsy lock keeps regular pranksters from messing with it as well.
At least the people who built your house put the box somewhere close. At my sister's house the box is on a pole in the furthest corner of the backyard, probably the furthest you can be away from the main house without actually leaving the property.
While it is not cheap, the box is not difficult to move to a better location.
