FAQs
What material is the Burg-Wächter Trent Post Box made from?
It is manufactured from tough, durable galvanised steel with a white finish.
How is mail retrieved from this post box?
Mail is retrieved by unlocking and opening the drop-front style door.
Is this post box suitable for large packages?
No, due to its narrow post slot and design, it is best suited for letters and smaller envelopes, not large packages.
Can I install this post box outdoors?
Yes, the galvanised steel construction and weather-protected letter flap make it suitable for outdoor installation.
How can I create a bank of post boxes?
The design allows multiple Trent post boxes to be grouped together and securely mounted side-by-side.
What are the dimensions of the post slot?
The post slot is specially designed to be narrow for enhanced security. Specific dimensions are not provided, but it accommodates standard letters.
Does it come with mounting hardware?
Mounting hardware (screws, wall plugs) is typically not included, as the required fixings depend on the surface to which the post box will be attached.
Troubleshooting
Post box door is difficult to open or close
Ensure the lock is fully disengaged. Check for any obstructions within the door mechanism or the lock area. Lubricate the lock mechanism sparingly with a graphite-based lubricant if necessary.
Mail is getting wet inside the post box
Verify that the letter flap is closing correctly and not obstructed. Ensure the post box is mounted with a slight downward tilt to allow water to run off. Check that the main door seal is intact and properly seated.
The lock is stiff or difficult to turn
Clean any debris from the lock cylinder. Apply a small amount of graphite-based lock lubricant. Avoid using oil-based lubricants which can attract dust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The post box is designed for mounting. You will need appropriate screws and wall plugs suitable for your mounting surface (e.g., brick, wood, metal). Ensure the chosen location is secure and accessible. The MB19 Trent typically requires drilling mounting holes and fixing it firmly in place. Refer to any included manufacturer instructions for specific mounting details.
Compatibility: This post box is designed to accept standard letters and A4 envelopes. The narrow slot is intended to deter theft and may not accommodate oversized items or parcels. It is ideal for grouping with other Burg-Wächter Trent post boxes to create a bank.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your white post box, clean it periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish. For areas with high humidity or coastal environments, inspect the galvanised steel occasionally for any signs of corrosion and address them promptly.
