FAQs

What is the overall size of the letterbox?

The overall size is 306mm x 70mm, and the internal dimension of the sleeve is 254mm x 37mm.

What tools are required for installation?

You may need a screwdriver or drill for installation, along with tools for measuring and marking the door.

What is the purpose of the internal water seal?

The internal water seal prevents water from entering the door, keeping the inside dry.

What types of doors is this letterbox suitable for?

It is suitable for most uPVC, composite, and timber doors.

How thick can my door be for this letterbox?

The letterbox fits doors between 40mm to 80mm in thickness.

How do I measure for a new letterbox?

Measure the existing letterbox dimensions and the thickness of the door to ensure compatibility. The aperture should be between 285mm x 50mm up to 295mm x 60mm.

What if the flap breaks?

The flap is designed to open 180 degrees to prevent it from snapping off. However, if damaged, it may need to be replaced. Ensure the letterbox is installed correctly and aligned properly.

Troubleshooting

Letterbox does not fit properly.

Double-check the door thickness and aperture measurements against the letterbox specifications. If the measurements are not within the specified range, the letterbox will not fit. Ensure you have the correct size letterbox (12-inch).

Flap is difficult to open or close.

Ensure nothing is obstructing the flap's movement. Check for debris or damage that might be causing the issue. Make sure the letterbox is installed correctly and aligned properly.

Draughts are still present after installation.

Check if the brushes are making proper contact with the door. Ensure the letterbox is correctly sealed against the door. If needed, adjust the position or consider adding additional sealing material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Cut a door aperture of 285mm x 50mm.
  2. Separate the two letterplate halves and place the exterior gasket over metal fixing posts.
  3. Insert the half containing brushes from the inside of the door.
  4. Slide the exterior half (with gasket) into the letterplate tube from the outside.
  5. Ensure the letterplate fully covers the aperture on both sides, and the gasket does not protrude.
  6. Use the appropriate length bolts (short or long, depending on door thickness) to screw into the center holes at either end. Do not overtighten.

Compatibility

  • Door Thickness: Compatible with doors 40mm to 80mm thick.
  • Door Types: Suitable for uPVC, composite, and timber doors.
  • Aperture Size: Requires an aperture between 285mm x 50mm up to 295mm x 60mm.

  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
