How to fix broken mailbox?

Hi All,

I am a new member of this community.

Nice to see you everyone.

Recently I moved to new home and the mailbox is broken. Is there any way I can fix it.

Thank you.

Hello @yehtut

Compare the size of your mailbox:

With this one.

Get a bag of mortar mix and small trowel from Bunnings.

You will need to pull out the door frame and remove the surrounding old mortar.

Keep the steel header plate.

Mix up the mortar and trowel along the bottom.

Position the door on the mortar bed and make sure it's level and in the middle.

Trowel mortar into the sides.

Slide the steel plate in on top of the door and trowel in.

Remove excess fallen mortar from the floor of the mailbox.

Smooth off all around and wipe down the door with a damp rag.

Cheers

Hello @yehtut 

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

It's great that you've received excellent advice from @AlanM52. With a bit of luck, the Sandleford 160 x 235mm Aluminium Brick-In Letterbox Set will fit neatly into your existing space. If you are handy with the tools my only other suggestion is to build a cover out of Merbau panels. 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
