A mailbox or post-box is an excellent addition to any commercial or residential property. Mailboxes are more secure than simple letterboxes which are cut into doorways since they allow staff or residents to check mail before they carry it inside their properties. Mailboxes can be made from a variety of materials such as plastic, metal or even wood and are often coated with a protective weatherproof paint. The variety of post-boxes is simply staggering- from single mailboxes for individual detached properties or shops to banks of mailboxes which can be linked together in the lobbies and hallways of apartment blocks and available in every colour, style, and finish imaginable. Communal mailboxes which can be linked together in modular form are especially useful if you are a landlord who is renovating a property so that is of a suitable standard to rent. Too often in rented accommodation where there is only one common shared entrance, which may have a security entry system, the postman has no option but to dump every tenant’s mail together through the main entrance, where it is mixed up and trodden on by several pairs of feet before it can be retrieved. Mail deposited in this way can easily go missing, be discarded or fall into the wrong hands. However, a neat bank of mailboxes allows each tenant to have their own post-box where their own mail is deposited safely and which they have exclusive access to via the use of a security key. These arrangements will save complaints from tenants further down the line, will look professional and lets tenants know that you take their needs into consideration. Furthermore, tenants of less scrupulous and understanding landlords may wish to contribute towards this type of instalment themselves. For businesses and private properties alike, post-boxes are convenient and effective, can look stylish and are also extremely functional and are therefore an essential addition to any property.
