Product Information

Full details

The Timco Victorian Letter Plate is designed for homeowners looking to add a touch of traditional, refined charm to their timber front doors while ensuring secure postal delivery. This silver-finished plate features an inward-opening sprung flap that effectively manages drafts and debris, making it an excellent functional upgrade for period properties or classic home designs. While it offers a robust and elegant aesthetic, users should note it is specifically sized for A5 documents and smaller standard parcels, meaning larger envelopes may require folding.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this letter plate come with screws?

Yes, it comes complete with all the necessary fixings required for a standard installation.

Can I install this on a UPVC door?

This product is specifically designed for timber doors; installation on UPVC doors is not recommended.

What is the maximum size of mail this can accept?

It is designed to accommodate A5 documents and standard letter sizes comfortably.

How do I prevent drafts?

The integrated inward-opening sprung flap is designed to close automatically, which naturally reduces drafts and keeps debris out.

Is the finish weather-resistant?

The silver finish is durable, but we recommend regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth to keep it looking new and prevent build-up.

Troubleshooting

The flap feels loose or does not close completely.

Check that the fixing bolts are tightened evenly and the plate is perfectly flush against the door to ensure the spring mechanism is aligned.

The plate wobbles after installation.

Verify that the mounting holes were drilled accurately and the bolt-through fixings are fully secured from the interior side.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic and elegant design
  • Effective draft reduction
  • Sturdy bolt-through installation
  • Complete fixing kit included

Cons

  • Limited to A5 document sizing
  • Not suitable for very large packages
  • Requires manual drilling for bolt-through installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires basic DIY tools, specifically a drill for the bolt-through holes. Ensure the door surface is flat and free of existing hardware residue before positioning the plate.

Compatibility: This plate is specifically designed for timber doors. Ensure your door thickness is compatible with the provided bolts before beginning the installation.

Care: To maintain the silver finish, clean the plate periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the decorative coating over time. A light application of a non-acidic metal polish can help retain its luster.
