Product Information

Full details

This letterbox plate is designed for homeowners and property managers seeking a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution for mail delivery. Its primary benefit is the integrated sleeve design, which provides enhanced security and weather protection for mail. A potential consideration is its fixed size, which may not fit all door thicknesses without adjustment. Key features include a polished steel finish, a 260 x 47mm aperture, and an integrated sleeve.

FAQs

What are the overall dimensions of the letterbox plate?

The overall dimensions are 260mm in width and 47mm in aperture height. The plate itself will have slightly larger external dimensions to cover the opening.

Is the sleeve removable for installation?

The 'All-in-One' design typically means the sleeve is integrated and slides into place with the main plate. It is designed to be installed as a single unit through the door.

Can this letterbox plate be used on metal doors?

While possible, installation on metal doors may require specialized tools for drilling and ensuring a secure fit. Compatibility depends on the specific metal door construction.

What is the standard door thickness this plate is designed for?

The product description mentions a standard size of 70mm, implying this is the typical door thickness it accommodates. However, confirm the exact sleeve length if your door differs significantly.

Does it come with fixing screws?

The product is supplied individually boxed, which usually includes the necessary fixing hardware. Please check the contents of the box upon receipt.

Can I get this in other finishes?

Loops offers a wide range of door hardware in various finishes. While this specific model is polished steel, other finishes may be available for similar products in their range. Contact the supplier for details.

How do I maintain the polished steel finish?

Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is recommended. For best results, use a mild soap solution and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching.

Troubleshooting

Letterbox plate does not fit door snugly

Ensure the door thickness is within the range supported by the sleeve. If the door is too thin, consider adding shims. If too thick, the sleeve may need to be replaced with a longer one if available, or a different model considered.

Screws do not align with pre-drilled holes

Re-measure and re-drill holes accurately based on the plate's fixing points. Ensure the drill bit size is appropriate for the screws.

Polished steel finish appears dull or scratched

Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. For minor scratches, a specific metal polish for stainless steel can be used carefully, following product instructions. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

  • Aesthetically pleasing bright finish.
  • Standard size for easy installation on many doors.
  • Part of a wider range of coordinated hardware.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Determine the desired position on the door, ensuring clearance for the internal sleeve.

  3. Cut out the aperture carefully using appropriate tools.
  4. Insert the letterbox plate and sleeve through the door.
  5. Secure the plate using the provided screws, ensuring a snug fit.

Compatibility:

Care:
