Although a post box may feel like an American tradition that the British have adopted, homeowners have actually been installing post boxes outside their property for decades. In fact, this exterior addition has been growing in popularity over the past few years. Here at Cheshire Metalcraft, we have a variety of different post box styles that are certain to appeal to the budget and preferences of every homeowner. Read on as we go over three reasons why you should invest in one…
Aesthetics
Post boxes vary in shape, size, colour and material which means that they are able to adhere to any and every aesthetic requirement. In fact, they are the perfect way to add a vintage flare or modern addition to the exterior of the home, as per the preferences of the client. Plus, some companies also offer customisable post boxes in order to allow customers to design their product from scratch and ensure that they meet every aesthetic requirement.
Durability
From cast aluminium alloy to steel reinforcement, post boxes are made from some of the strongest materials on the market which means that they are able to withstand the test of time like never before. After all, cast aluminium alloy offers a lightweight feel without sacrificing on strength. Plus, these materials are also corrosion resistant, doubling their aesthetic appeal, and can be recycled at the end of their post box lifespan.
Safety
Many homeowners believe that post boxes are a security risk because they allow people to steal your letters and small packages. Thankfully, this couldn’t be further from the truth! After all, our post boxes here at Cheshire Metalcraft are not only made from durable materials like cast aluminium, they are also intruder proof. In fact, the slots are too small for a hand to reach into and the only way to retrieve the mail is with a key.
