Wall mounted postbox

whodafunk

Hi All,

Looking where I might get a nice wall mounted postbox? I’ve looked in Woodies and local DIY store but in my opinion they are all very old fashioned. I’ve seen some nice stainless steel/chrome on modern houses just don’t know where I could pick one up? Also looked online but not seeing much. Any suggestions? I’m putting in a grey composite door so looking for something which would look well with this.

Thank you

This is it

Thanks guys for the replies. So I got a nice stainless steel postbox from the site listed. I mounted it. Probably is now I have outside lights (up/down style) and the light is reflecting off the steel postbox. Freaked - never thought of this when putting it up! Anyone else had this issue?

My only options are move postbox (limited space) or different colour which would not reflect the light.

Why is it a problem?

What's the recommended material for wall mounted post boxes that will last? Need to source one myself.

Can't only An Post put items into this? Granted most things I buy are delivered by them but sometimes a courier would deliver thigns that can fit in a post box but those ones don't have a slot in them.

I'd thought about one of these alright but they do seem to be for An Post deliveries and post only.

So you want just an open box ?. How would the courier gain access if it wasn't. Therefore what's the point anyone can open

I have no letterbox in my door. I have a post box that the postman or a courier can put stuff in. If it's too big, it wouldn't have fit in my letter box anyway.

It can't be opened by anyone.

It was to replace a letterbox. If you want to be able to receive bigger parcels then Deliverybox could be suitable but I either get larger items sent to my parent's house or Parcel Motel/An Post's equivalent.

Ya, I guess it's a weigh up between a normal wall hung post box (anyone can put letters into) vs a delivery box (only an post can put letters into), or have both.

Likewise, we won't have a letterbox in the door so have to get an external postbox.

My point made.
