Letter Plate Black with Spring Outward Opening - Per set

Do you want to combine black door hardware with a black letter plate? Then this outward-opening letter plate with a beautiful, black coating is a great option. The letterbox plate is incredibly strong due to the aluminium, and can withstand any kind of weather. The plate is spring-loaded, so the flap will close automatically. This means the letter plate can also be installed vertically.

The exterior of the letter plate measures 34 x 7.3 cm, the inside approximately 3.2 x 28 cm. The distance between the mounting holes is 31 cm. 

How do I install a letter plate?

Installing a letter plate is not a very hard job, but it is important to do it accurately. You can install a letter plate in your door, wall, a side panel, or even a separate column. If you do not have an opening in your door yet, start by marking and cutting out the opening. This should be a rectangle of about 3.2 x 28 cm. After marking the cut, start by drilling a hole at both ends with a spade drill bit 13 mm. Next, use a jig saw or reciprocating saw to cut out the remaining wood. Drill a pilot hole with a diameter of 7 mm on either side of the hole. They should be 1.8 cm from the edge of the slot to the heart of the pilot hole. You can now simply install the letter plate with the included fasteners.

Letterbox draught excluder

Because the flap is equipped with a spring and closes automatically, you will experience little to no draught. If there is still some draught passing through, it can be contained with a draught excluder on the inside of the door. This interior letter plate cover is available in aluminium and black. These letterbox draught excluders are sold separately and are easy to install yourself. If the letterbox is not the problem, have a look at our regular draught excluders.
