Post Boxes for Security, Convenience and Durability - July 23, 2010

Filed under: Letter Boxes — Tags: , , , — admin @ 4:44 pm

Post boxes, for most people, are items they may purchase once or twice within their life time; therefore, selecting the right post box should be a carefully considered choice.

Whether commercial or residential mailboxes it’s important to remember that the size chosen can make life simpler. For example; larger letter boxes accept larger packages and have a greater chance in saving many trips to the post office to collect undelivered mail items.

Many homeowners consider that larger letter boxes mean a greater chance of theft due to a bigger gap in the outdoor door which may attract opportunists reaching through and taking mail from the inside but this is exactly the reason why lockable letter boxes were invented.

Some letter boxes will require a professional or at least someone who is savvy with building and fitting items such as flat-pack furniture and often it is necessary in a commercial establishment that the post boxes chosen are larger industrial types and will need a professional to fit and install.

On the opposite side of the spectrum residential mailboxes are normally much smaller and easily fit into the space within the front door, therefore, need very little installation and should be quick and simple to fit.

We at Mailbox Mania are now one of the largest, best-known UK suppliers for commercial and residential mailboxes. We guarantee exceptional durability and sleek aesthetics with all the products we offer along with price guarantee to provide the most competitive prices available within the UK.

Protect Your Mail From Theft - June 20, 2010

Filed under: Letter Boxes — Tags: , , — admin @ 12:44 pm

Post boxes are an item that every business and home must have. It is extremely important to ensure the security of your post boxes, due to identify theft unfortuantely being rife nowadays. Therefore, it is essential to choose the right post boxes for your property.

There are so many varieties of letter boxes available to you, for example, open stainless steel post boxes and lockable post boxes.

The letter box you choose may depend on the type of property you live in or work in. If you live in a flat or an apartment, then a residential post box will best suit your needs. If you live in a house, then a letter box that fits into your front door will suffice.

If you do not want a letter box inside your front door, but would prefer one that is slightly set away from your property, then you need to consider the security of your mail. Therefore, you need to choose a letter box that is well manufactured, such as a stainless steel letter box, and also one that is lockable.

Not only do you need to keep your mail safe from identity theft, you may also need to protect your mail from a rather mischievous family pet. To solve this problem, you can have a cage put on the back of your door so your mail simply falls straight into it.

Whatever style of post boxes you require, here at Mailbox Mania, we offer a wide range of letter boxes that will meet your requirements.

Stainless steel post boxes that stand the test of time - May 27, 2010

Letter boxes - whether residential mailboxes or business metal post boxes - are often considered by individuals who already have a post box which performs an adequate daily function.

If letter boxes become damaged, however, and cause problems with receiving mail, then replacing the letter boxes become a priority.

Letter boxes are an essential part of every day life. However, unless a letter box becomes damaged irrevocably, or you move to a property that does have one, they are not often considered as essential purchases.

Residential mailboxes and stainless steel post boxes, as with any type of metal post boxes, often have to endure far harsher conditions from UK weather than letter boxes used in many other countries. This is accepted within the industry, and as such has lead to long-term, durable stainless steel post boxes being readily available in the UK. These offer a long-term investment in a product that can often last for decades.

To ensure the safety of your mail, choosing to invest in stainless steel post boxes is a wise choice, and also one that can offer great aesthetics - often updating the appearance of a door.

At Mailbox Mania, we are retailers of quality stainless steel post boxes, and metal letter boxes, which provide the durability, pleasing aesthetics and competitive pricing that makes our quality post boxes very popular - with thousands of people across the UK - when they need guaranteed durability, for decades of service.

The Surprising Importance Of Post Boxes - May 8, 2010

Post boxes and letter boxes may only cross a person’s mind on a handful of occasions during their lifetime, unless they are in the industry of manufacturing or selling post boxes, or perhaps working in the delivery industry.

If it is considered what a world without letter boxes and post boxes would mean to the world’s population, it is obvious that it would pose quite a problem. Letter boxes and post boxes  are one of the most critical of basic necessities, which are yet rarely considered or acknowledged until they become worn or damaged.

If parcels and letters were not delivered - or indeed were lost - because post boxes and letter boxes did not exist at all, or if there were no secure entry point in a door or stand alone post boxes to hold essential postal items, then it would cause all sorts of problems, and would affect nearly everybody.

There are a large number of benefits that make stainless steel post boxes more appealing as an option. One such feature is the safety aspect of these letter boxes.  Stainless steel is strong and secure to deter thieves, and most of them will be fitted with a secure locking system.

At Mailbox Mania, following on from our three years of successful trading, we are now one of the largest UK retailers providing the highest quality graded stainless steel post boxes and high quality metal letter boxes, to both businesses and consumers across the country.

Guaranteed Durability From Stainless Steel Post Boxes - May 2, 2010

Whilst letter boxes and post boxes may not seem the most fascinating subject matter to discuss in a social setting, they are, of course, an absolute necessity; they are critical for virtually every person across the globe who resides (or works) at a property with a postal address.

In fact, if post boxes did not exist at all, and items sent through the post didn’t always reach their intended destinations, problems would occur - such as late credit card fees, or perhaps even commercial businesses grinding to a halt when their stock has not been securely delivered - to name only a few.

It has not been uncommon that for any post boxes and letter boxes that have not been manufactured with security in mind, or have become damaged and possibly even opened by another individual, then mail could start to go missing and identities more easily stolen.

There is no need to be purchasing new letter boxes or post boxes on an annual or bi-annual basis; should a person decide to wisely invest in competitively priced stainless steel post boxes, it could be a decade or more before any new post boxes or letterboxes will need to be considered.

At Mailbox Mania, we have built our unrivalled reputation in the UK over three successful years, and can now claim to have one of the largest choices of post and letter boxes available for residential properties and business properties. We endeavour to only supply the best quality products, at excellent prices.

Refurbishing Multi-Tenancy Properties - March 11, 2010

Regardless of whether you are a private landlord, council landlord or a Housing Association, if you are building or refurbishing a multi-tenancy property then there are a lot of things that you have to take into consideration, from adequate lighting of communal areas to fire risk analysis.  Letter boxes are not likely to be at the very top of your agenda, but they are yet another thing that you need to budget for and pre-determine the position they are going to be installed in when the property nears completion.

As with all fittings in tenanted properties they are going to need to be strong and durable, as well as be sensibly priced.  Here at Mailbox Mania we specialise in letter boxes for both domestic and commercial properties and we have a good selection of multi-occupancy boxes which is exactly what you need.  Obviously the number of boxes you need will be determined by the number of individual residencies you are creating.  Letter boxes for multi-occupancy buildings can be bought as individual wall fitted boxes that can be stacked together and are fitted inside the property, generally in the communal entrance hall.  If you prefer there are appropriate residential mailboxes available that can be erected outside the building either wall mounted or on their own stands.

Whatever the your needs there will be a mailbox solution but don’t forget that whilst not as important as some parts of the build project they are still an everyday essential for the people that will be living there.

Have secure letter boxes - December 2, 2009

Filed under: Letter Boxes — Tags: , , , — admin @ 9:00 am

Identity theft is becoming a bigger crime every year so you owe it to everyone that lives at your address to make sure the mail is delivered and kept secure, and the only people with access to it are the addressees of the mail.

The address and the situation you have will determine your exact needs for your letter boxes. There are post boxes available that can be attached to the wall, an entrance gate or a fence and they work well if there is no access to the letter boxes through the front doors. The post boxes keep your mail secure as the mail is posted through the slot in the front and it is then retrieved at either the front or the back by the person with the key to the lock.

If you live at a shared property with a number of residents at one postal address then trying to make sure the mail is secure is a little more difficult, but achievable. There are multiple occupancy mailboxes, which means a number of mailboxes can be connected together with bolts; there can be an individual one for each resident and with each individuals name or flat number so that they are identifiable by the postman.  Then each resident with their own key can gain access to their mailboxes so the mail stays secure and safe.

Here at Mailbox Mania we have a wide range of solutions to make sure that your mail is delivered safely to your letter boxes.
