FAQs

What tools are needed for installation?

You'll need a measuring tape, pencil, saw (suitable for your door type), screwdriver or drill, and possibly a drill bit.

What door thicknesses does this letterbox fit?

The telescopic sleeve adjusts to fit doors between 40mm and 80mm thick.

Can I install this on a metal door?

This letterbox is primarily designed for uPVC, Composite, and Timber doors. Installation on metal doors may require modifications or additional tools.

How do I measure for the correct size?

Measure the existing letterplate slot, or measure the door to ensure it falls within the 40-80mm thickness range.

What if the screw holes don't align?

The screw hole centers are 245mm apart. If your existing holes don't align, you may need to drill new holes, but ensure you don't compromise the door's integrity.

How do I replace the brushes?

The brushes are integrated into the internal half of the letterbox. If they are damaged, you would need to replace the internal part of the letterbox. Consult the manufacturer's instructions.

What is the warranty on this product?

Please refer to the product packaging or retailer for warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Drafts still present after installation.

Check the seal and brush condition. Ensure the letterbox is properly aligned and the door closes flush. Check for gaps between the door and the letterbox.

Water leaking through the letterbox.

Verify the gasket's condition and correct positioning. Ensure the letterbox is securely fixed to the door. Check that the door isn't warped or damaged.

Flap sticking or difficult to open.

Check for obstructions. Ensure the hinges are clear and not catching. Lubricate the flap mechanism if necessary with a silicone-based lubricant.
