We chose a new modern front door without letterbox so needed this. Very pleased with appearance and functionality and for ordinary letters it is superb. However, because of the construction of the opening we found that even quite small stiff packages would not fit in, e.g. contact lenses. The problem was that these would hit the back of the box and not drop in. However, By bending the inner flange just a tiny bit (just with my hands) these can now drop in more vertically and go through. I have maybe compromised security slightly by doing so, but am happy to accept this for the increased convenience.

Box looks nice, installation was easy, need it to make 2 extra holes in it to install this inside my house on the letter hole. Now this box has a big hole to insert the letters from the outside when the box is inside the house. That's great but when the mailman is trying to insert the letters, he has lot's of problem with doing so. Construction inside is one of the worst, letters catching the top, sometimes are pushed out through the top, sometimes they hanging outside (to don't bend a letter) and most of the time they are squished at the top. DO NOT BUY if for usage like in my case.

Love this. Looks smart and everyone notices it. Stops the dog destroying the post and the postman can always fit even the big letters in.

Easy to fit and clean. Just a wipe over everynow and then with and damp cloth - ours is on a house fitted externally.

The 12Ltr Dual Access Post Box is a first class product. It was installed and put into service as soon as I received it. Our postman is much happier now that he no longer has to try and cram my classic car magazines through the letter box in our front door. All of our mail is now received in much better condition. Much appreciated product and highly recommended.

Really happy with my purchase, get most smaller packages/parcels, which is great as saves time going to pick up from Royal Mail Depot. Our postman is very happy with it too, as makes his job a little easier. So more than happy with my purchase, was easy to install and does a great job of keeping our mail & parcels secure. Would highly recommend this if considering buying

Can this box easily be fitted to railings so that letter flap is outside but rear access is inside the railings ?
Stewart Kerry, London
This may be difficult as there would need to be a section of railing clear for access to the aperture. You could consider the Black Railings Post Box as this is designed for this purpose.

Hi can I use this as an internal mailbox fitted behind a door?
Elaine, London
Providing the slot can be lined up with that on your door and the box can be fitted flush to the door then this can be used internally.

I have just ordered by telephone, the contemporary black post box. I have just noticed on the receipt that it has duel openings. Does both openings require the key to unlock them, or does the top open without the key?

The top and rear flap on this postbox is not lockable. There is only one lockable door on this unit that requires a key.

Standard Post Box Installation

We offer professional installation on our complete range of Post Boxes.

Our experienced engineer will complete a brief site inspection and then discuss their findings with you to agree positioning of your post box.

Your installation will include fixing the post box to an exterior wall using the fixings included with your post box. The fixings are designed for use with a solid surface such as brick or concrete.

The position of your post box will be governed by safe site access, and other obstructions such as submerged pipes or cables within the wall.

The engineer will carry out a final assessment to ensure the post box is secure before providing a brief demonstration of your post box and confirming the installation has been completed to your satisfaction.

Non-standard Installation

In some cases, it may be necessary to install additional materials or provide extra resources (manpower) to facilitate an installation in a safe manner.

If additional costs are likely these will be discussed with you prior to installation. Reasons for extra costs might include:

  • Specialised access equipment and permits such as hoists, lifts and cranes.
  • Outside of normal hours working (Mon-Fri, 9am to 5pm).
  • 4x4 Vehicular access requirements to remote rural sites.
  • Road closure including necessary permits.
  • Additional manpower to overcome technical, lifting or safety access issues.

We offer installation throughout the UK mainland, however some more remote and rural post codes in the Highlands are subject to a surcharge to cover additional fuel and traveling time costs.

The following areas will incur a rural travel surcharge:

£55.00 Surcharge Areas

  • PH 1 - 26 (No coverage in other PH postcodes)
  • PA 1 - 19 (No coverage in other PA postcodes)
  • KA 19, 26
  • ML 11, 12

£105.00 Surcharge Areas

  • IV 01-17, 30,31,32 (No coverage in other IV postcodes)
  • AB
  • DD
  • TD
  • DG
  • KW

These additional elements are deemed to fall outside the definition of a 'Standard Installation'. If you feel your installation might be non-standard please contact us to discuss your individual requirements.

If applicable, additional costs are to be paid before installation begins.

Warranty Terms & Conditions

Our installer provides a standard 12 month warranty on all new installations and a 3 month warranty on all materials provided during maintenance visits.

Note: Existing system components and pre-supplied equipment are not included in the installation warranty as these elements are covered by the Manufacturer warranty.

We reserve the right to undertake an ‘Assessment Call’ without prejudice to investigate any complaints relating to materials failure or poor workmanship to assess if the complaint is valid. Please note that remedial service calls generated by elements outside of our sphere of influence or due to different fault conditions will be chargeable to you at an agreed call out charge.

In scenarios where you request a post installation service call and our assessment identifies the fault condition or cause of the fault falls outside of the limitations of the standard installation warranty (Force Majeure, different fault etc) a call out charge will be incurred for the visit.

Assessment calls raised for reasons outside our sphere of influence or responsibility and not covered by the standard installation will incur a call out charge for labour and additional materials.

The following are examples of when a call out charge would be incurred:

  • Accidental Damage
  • Malicious Damage
  • Materials or Manufacturer Failure
  • System Modification
  • Incorrect User Diagnosis
  • Broadband Related
  • App Related
  • User Error
