It took quite some time searching for the right post box to fit our needs and this doesn’t disappoint. Great build quality, spacious capacity and looks classy on our wall. The neighbours have all asked where we got this from as it stands out from the rest. It fits small parcels so helps receiving deliveries, even the postman and couriers comment on how useful the opening and size of the post box. The simple sleek design makes it look expensive so I guess this is a case of you get what you pay for. I would recommend this product to anyone. You even get a very handy guide on how to put it up so you get the holes in the right places. Thank you SAFE from a very satisfied customer.

This is a fantastic product. Plenty of colours to choose from - I chose the grey and it is perfect. I don't have to worry whether the post will fit as the capacity is spacious. Easy to position and fit onto the gatepost - it only took a few minutes. The styling is classic with lovely curved top but is also well made and robust. This post box is also very secure and came with spare keys. All these features add up to a well made, stylish and secure box for my mail. Any worries i may have had about mail being delivered to a box on the wall outside my gate have disappeared. I need not have been concerned.

I hesitated about buying this because it wasn't cheap but I could't find anything else that matched it for style and capacity. When it arrived I was glad I had - it is smart, easy to use and has great capacity. Even our postman has complimented us on our choice!

The build quality of this letter box is excellent. The box is also extremely roomy - even in the 'classic' style. We have had ours mounted on the wall at the front of the house, with no protection from the elements and we haven't had any weather-related issues (in over two months). We added the security baffle too, as the opening is quite large and I suppose it would be easy for someone to remove its contents. The fact that you can choose from so many colours is a bonus. It is quite pricey, but hopefully it will be long-lasting.

We were looking for a way to stop our mail being eaten by the dog. An external box seemed like the ideal answer. There are lots of cheaper alternatives on the market, but the quality of this product sets it aside. It has more than adequate capacity, and seems to be built to last. The access slot allows small packets to be delivered, but at the same time makes pilfering impossible. It was easy to put up (fixed to a wall). It's under a roof overhang, so is protected from the weather, but it looks like it should be OK out in the open.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. We chose a size to meet our needs which includes being capable of housing small packages. It looks good and is built fine. It seems a bit pricey for what it is but is not out of line with other similar sized post boxes.

I have purchased many of these letterboxes over the last few years. In our business it is hard to sell a first class post box with a high end automated gate system.

After lots of research I came across the Bobi range so ordered a unit for my own property as a test. Needless to say, it is a fantastically simple product which provides outstanding results. Sounds a little strange to make such a fuss about a post box but when confidential mail is delivered you expect it to stay safe and dry until such a time you can collect it.

Even with the standard Bobi it provides plenty of room for you to be away from the property and the mail/small parcels are not poking out the top when you get home.

Great product, outstanding finish and fuctionally you will not find a better post box.

I’m really pleased with this letterbox, it’s so attractive in grey and is very practical, taking bulky letters, magazines and small parcels easily, it has the capacity to store a couple of weeks post. The flap is simple to open wide with the key. It is a bit pricey, but appears to be worth it.

I love this letter/parcel box. It was expensive but you can see the difference in both the look and the thought out details like keeping the rain out, the quality and robustness of the 3 keys etc. The website and ordering was clear and efficient and it really helped having such a good choice of designs and colours. I would definitely recommend.

Can the Bobi Classic Letter Box be mounted onto a post as opposed to being wall mounted?

Yes, optional mounting posts and link stands are available to order, once you have added the post box to your basket.

I've seen older reviews which mention the baffle dropping down occasionally / can be pushed down through the letterbox. Can you advise whether this issue has been fixed and the baffle is now fitted on permanently before shipping?
Lucy , London
Bobi now use very strong special acrylic adhesive to permanently fit the security baffle before shipping which has solved any previous problems.

Could you suggest a large capacity letterbox which is secure? i.e. you cannot put your hand in the slot to collect the post.
Mrs S Cheetham, Macclesfield
Unfortunately post boxes are not immune to theft and people potentially trying to hook mail out. In terms of added security and preventing this happening I would recommend the Bobi - Classic Black Letter Box. You can buy an optional extra called a security baffle which is factory fitted. This is a tooth-edged device and made from stainless steel. This will keep potential hands from trying to enter the post box.

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
