Filed under: Maibox Articles — Tags: , , , — admin @ 3:55 pm

Post boxes can be used for residential properties, such as houses and flats, as well as commercial properties, such as office buildings and industrial sites. There are many different types of post boxes available on the market today, such as metal post boxes, wall mounted letter boxes and many more. You can also purchase post boxes that are lockable for extra security.

Stainless steel post boxes are extremely durable and are perfect for large volumes of bulky mail, hence they are often selected for commercial organisations. The opening and the hinges made of steel ensure the safety and security of your mail. Most stainless steel post boxes come with a shutter made from rubber, which will help prevent damp in the post box caused by rain. You can also purchase a variety of colours of stainless steel post boxes, as they covered in a powdered coating finish.

Post boxes can also be for either internal or external use. A variety of polishes and paints ensure the durability and sturdiness of external post boxes.

Your letter boxes can also be personalised to suit your taste. They can have your name and address engraved on them, which is particularly a good idea if it is situated away from your home or business. This ensures that your mail is delivered to the correct address and not lost or stolen.

If you are looking for a wide choice of new letter boxes, then here at Mailbox Mania we have a variety for you to choose from, that will be guaranteed to complement your taste and needs.

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.

Stainless Steel Post Boxes To Withstand The UK Weather - May 20, 2010

Stainless steel post boxes can weather even the most extreme temperatures, rainfall or sunlight - which is a good job in UK weather.

It is common for direct sunlight to have a negative impact on letter boxes made from weaker materials.  Weaker materials will contract, weaken and even crack in strong heat - particularly if they have been made from plastic.

Post boxes made from weaker materials can also be affected by consistent rain and ice, and some materials can actually soak and expand in damp weather conditions. Materials that constantly contract and expand are going to become damaged much faster than other items, such as quality stainless steel post boxes.

Plastic is susceptible to damage from weather elements and general wear and tear; cracked and broken letter boxes were a more typical sight to observe in the last few decades.

In order to guarantee the durability of letter boxes and post boxes, it is necessary to seek those items that have been manufactured using stainless steel, or other high quality graded metal.

Over the past three years, at Mailbox Mania we have grown to become one of the UK’s largest retailers in the provision of high quality metal and stainless steel post boxes, to both individual residences and business customers.  Whether it is residential mailboxes or mailboxes for commercial premises, we are able to supply the highest quality items at competitive prices - meaning you do not have to worry about the effect of the British weather.

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.

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.

Private Letter Boxes - March 25, 2010

The private letter boxes that we take for granted these days were first seen in Paris in the late 18th century, and only made it across the Channel in the mid-19th century; before the mail was delivered to the local post office for collection.  When the postman doing his rounds first came on the scene in the UK, he would actually knock on the door to give the post directly to the householder.  On much of the continent and in North America, the preference has always been for external metal post boxes, either mounted on the side of a house or on a post.  In the USA they often have a flag on them that the postman flips to let the householder know that they have mail to collect.

Until recently these external post boxes were rare in the UK, although multi-tenancy buildings like apartments in city centres such as London would have individual mailboxes in the entrance way to the property, and this practice is still common.  External mail boxes are starting to become more widely seen these days in the UK at domestic properties, as they have several advantages over the traditional slot in the front door - and they can also be a decorative addition to the house.

Here at Mailbox Mania we stock all kinds of letter boxes, newspaper boxes and even boxes designed to take parcels.  From moulded Victorian styles right through to the most uber chic stainless steel post boxes we have the right look to complement your home at affordable prices.
