We have brought several of these and they are the best out of all we have tried. They are sitting proudly outside our Fire Stations with our badge crest on the front. We will continue to buy these in the future and with Safe we had a very good experiance from the website to delivery. Very good quality construction in stainless steel. No signs of rust on our oldest box. Good size which was important. Easy to fit with the fixings included. Simple to follow instructions. Easy to keep clean. Box is secured by a key lock and has been reliable.

Strong and stylish looking post box. Post cannot be lifted out, very secure. Keeps the post dry. Not very easy to install, a two man job.

Quality materials and construction. We didn't like the shiny steel so had it powder coated to match exterior grey window frames.

Before purchasing the Brabantia post box I had researched the market and looked at many other products. Although not the cheapest Brabantia have a constant across their products and that is quality. This post box matches my expectations perfectly. The finish of the box is very, very good, no sharp edges anywhere. The flap section works very well and is very quiet in operation. Also no water enters the box at all. So far it has defeated even the strongest winds. The stainless finish looks good and is returned to new look by the application of a little Baby Oil and then buff. I give 9/10 for storage capacity only due to the fact that the flap opening seams a little less wide than a regular letter box and would not accept a small parcel that might just fit a regular letter box. However, no complaints. Fitting is made very easy by use of the template incorporated into the packaging box. Gold Star Brababtia.

The Brabantia postbox was well made and easy to open. 5 fixing holes available so plenty of choice for attaching to the wall or a post. Being stainless steel it should be reasonably rust proof but we'll have to see how it stands up to the salt spray in the wind as the house is only 100m from the sea. Flap easy to open and plenty of room inside for A4 sized mail and the inevitable collection of freebie newspapers, leaflets and other junk mail that gets delivered - especially important if you can't get to the post box every day to empty it.

The Brabantia B540 Stainlees Steel Post Box is both elegant in design and highly practical of purpose, and the front opening door makes it easy to retrieve large items of mail. The I nstallation instructions provided were clear and very simple to implement and I particularly liked the secure fixings that make it tamper proof. Obviously all post boxes are vulnerable to the detirmined felon but I feel our mail is secure from opportunistic theft and pranksters alike in this sleek well crafted box. Stainless steel does show finger and hand marks readily, however we have found that the quality of the material used makes it simple to clean and to maintain that just installed look.

We needed three letter boxes In a row tto look Contempory but in the courtyard of a Barn Conversion. These sharp looking stainless steel boxes are perfect. They give ample security, plenty of storage and Keep everything dry and looking sharp. Most other ootions were old style with images if horses or strange looking patteens but this clear, clean, sharp, clinical look gives a neat and up market presence which goes well with the look and feel of the properties. I would most definitely reccomend this product to any peson who eequiees a similar look and feel whether they needed just one ir a number of boxes in a row.

    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.

    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
