Venia Solid Mail Slot for Front Door Stainless Steel Victorian Letter Box Plate 13 x 4 inches Mail Slot Rear Piece Durable Satin Insulation Screws Fits to Most Doors for Elegant Cover Look

Took a while to find this - just the right size to replace a old aluminum flap. Most mail slots are at least 10" wide. I didn't want to enlarge the opening. It works well. Really good and high-quality product, very well dampened and doesn't rattle when the door is shut, looks amazing too.

Very solid and high end finish, if your door is less than 2” thick you need to either cut/grind the screws and clean up the threads or you won’t be able to tighten/suck the inner and outer plates in tight to the door (my door was 1.75”)There is no template provided to aid laying out the cuts, it’s more than just cut a hole for the flap the hinges need to be recessed. Expect a little trial and error to get the clearance for the swinging doors.Overall I’m very happy with the look and function very well made. You need a drill, saw I used a recip demolition saw with a wide blade and fine teeth. A file and chisel to relieve for the hinge that extends beyond the cut needed for the swinging door.Again: A Template to mark the cuts and holes would have been helpful

The slot looks good once you install it. It is difficult to install. It is hard to insert mail fully. The spring that closes the outside flap is not stainless steel, it corroded and snaps. You are left with a very drafty mail slot. To install it you need to cut a very large hole in your door. Once it breaks you have no choice other than buying another one. I contacted the seller trying to buy a replacement spring. They responded saying there is no spring on the slot. They obviously didn't even bother to look at the product. The didn't respond to when I told them where the spring is located. I would seriously recommend you not butcher your door to install this product that doesn't last very long.

This is just what I needed. With COVID getting info from my clients was becoming an issue. This mail slot solved that problem completely. My clients can easily use the mail slot and their information is safe a secure. This is also a very attractive, sturdy piece and installation was a snap.

So what I would say is it is super heavy duty - the metal is probably worth the money ;-) It was a pain to install as the screw holes are very close to the hole - they probably do not to be that close.The other issue was my door was like 1/8" narrower than the screws could handle. I just went to the HW store and bough the appropriate screws.

This fantastic mail slot will elevate any door from standard to magazine worthy. I’m very impressed with the quality and build. It is solid and heavy! That is one of the really nice features is that is has both front and back flaps so the door retains a finished look on both sides Be sure to check the measurements/dimensions to make sure it fits your door! Happy that I made this purchase!

It is a nice looking door slot. Description says it comes with instructions. No instructions were included at all. And there for there is no way to know how big of a hole do you cut????

Lovely finish, solid design and construction. I installed it through a stucco wall into my garage. I removed the inside flap door just by bending the hinge axle, since I really wanted the mail to go in more easily. Measure carefully, and if you are going through stucco make the 4 corner holes big enough to line up (I had to fiddle with it, but that was my poor skill). Plan on hitting the hardware store to buy shorter screws or washers if you want it to fit tight. I don't view this as a fault, as they cannot possibly provide hardware to suit every application. Mine looks awesome!
