Good Morning @natalie68 

I hve bene watching letterboxs float past my eyes in my newsfeed on the big blue social F page :smile: (I searched for the product annd then let their algorithim work to my benifit) I can picture the style you might be thinking of but is it possible for a picture of the Fence and area where you are thinking of installing a latterbox and also a link to the actuall letterbox you have in mind? (The little chain link just above this text box is how you put in a link)

 

Having a letterbox able to be locked and takemid sized boxes is how I think letter boxes are heading :smile:

Re: hi there enquiry please thanks about a letterbox

Hello @natalie68 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your letterbox. 

 

There are definite ways and means to mount your letterbox to your wooden fence. In order to give our members an idea of the type of letterbox and fence that you have, would it be possible for you to post a few photos of both items? Once we see the mailbox and the fence, we'll be able to offer recommendations on how to mount it effectively. 

 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

 

Eric

Hi @natalie68,

 

As requested please post photos of the letterbox and the fence.

In the meantime here is our Bunnings Sandleford letterbox.
