Wall Post Boxes: An Alternative to Door Letterboxes

The usual type of letterbox in the UK is a hole in the door. Even with letter flaps on either side and brushes between, this reduces the thermal efficiency of the property. It also provides an opening through which burglars can fish for keys. However, you need somewhere for the mail to be delivered, so let’s consider wall post boxes, an alternative to door letterboxes.

Wall Mounted Post Box

A wall mounted post box is exactly that; a secure box, where mail can be delivered and safely stored until you unlock the hold. It fixes onto the wall of your property, typically next to the front entrance.

What’s the Advantage of a Wall Letterbox?

As if the security and energy efficiency of a solid front door wasn’t enough, a wall mounted letterbox also keeps your mail out of the mouths of your curious, and ever peckish, pets. No more rips in renewals or bite marks on birthday cards! Also, without brushes in the way, it is easier for the postie to slide your mail in.

Can you Get a Large Wall Mounted Post Box?

We offer a range of sizes and styles, so you can find the ideal look and dimensions for your residential or commercial property.

A large post box offers greater hold capacity, which is ideal if you don’t check the box each day. We also have some which are suitable for small parcel and package deliveries. This saves your online shopping from being left on the doorstep in view of unintended recipients. Examples include the Allux 500 wall mounted parcel box and the popular PaccoBox. No more driving to the collection point to pick up packages that arrived when you were out!

At the other end of the spectrum, we offer slimline models, check out the Moda Italiana S2001ER or Tocco di Italia Slim Profile Sire. If security is a concern, Cerebus is discrete and has enhanced anti-theft features.

What Wall Post Box Styles Are There?

We understand; picking a design that is in keeping with the style of your house is important for kerb appeal. A wall post box is also a way to add a bit of character to the property. For this reason, we stock a range of different styles.

From a simple, no-frills design, such as the W2 Quick Fix to the stylised Bloomsbury and Kingsbury large post box models. There are curved wall mounted letterboxes and Skandi-style Swedish designs and the classy Italian Europa Maxi.

Take a look at our full range to find the ideal wall post box for your requirements.

How to Fit a Wall Letterbox

Every letterbox that we sell is manufactured by European specialists with ISO 9001 Quality accreditation. The wall mounted post boxes are suitable for exterior use and are made from weather and corrosion resistant materials. Each has pre-drilled holes to aid installation. In addition, we supply a standard fixing kit.

When your post box arrives, measure the height of your chosen position, check your post box is level and mark the wall. Ensure your drill holes go into the brick, rather than mortar. Then fit the rawl plug into the holes and then screw your post box securely into position.
