Redbox deployed a fleet of digital video signage displays on their kiosks back in 2021. 

+

Hardware

+

These displays are housed in a custom, metal box. The back and front of the display unit are secured using the same Camlock-type locks as the main kiosk door uses. It's unknown if it's the exact key as the kiosk itself. Both lock cylinders are keyed for A keys.

+

Internally, these signs use displays manufactured by Videri. They are model number VDS-30, containing a 32 inch display.

+

Disassembly Details

+

The main casing is fixed to the kiosk via the same large, philips head screws the standard lightboxes are attached with.

+

The screen itself is meant to be retained by both the locks, as well front metal bezel built out of polycarbonate and a metal of some kind. The internals are secured by both the front bezel panel and the rear door.

+

However, with minimal force, you may be able to remove the front bezel and rear door with a combination of lifting and turning the relevant doors. You should be able to defeat both locks with enough patience, though you can alternatively remove the plastic bezel from the front  to speed things up.
