|
Q. |
What sort of warranty comes with the product? |
|
A. |
All mailboxes we carry have a manufacturer's warranty,
while these vary between manufacturers generally they are for a 10 year period against faulty materials or
workmanship A 5 year warranty generally applies on powder coating, however, no assurance can be given as to the effect of ultraviolet impact and any atmospheric pollution which may diminish the appearance of the product over time. A 1 year warranty applies on any locking mechanisms. Aluminium mailboxes have a 10 year warranty against corrosion. Mailboxes manufactured from galvanised steel have a warranty against corrosion of
5 years and and zinc coated steels 1 year. Stainless Steel mailboxes are subject to "harsh condition
corrosion", namely salt spray or mist and installations in these
conditions are excluded from corrosion warranty, in other circumstances
stainless steel is generally warranted for a 10 year period against deep corrosion . The timber mailboxes have a warranty on materials and paint of
3 years. If required please determine the specific manufacturers
warranty. The warranties are specific in that the
product must be considered to have been reasonably maintained, this
includes lubrication of hinges when deemed pertinent, lubrication of the
locking mechanism as required and general washing and cleaning of the
product, this is specifically important on stainless steel.
Weather Protection: All mailboxes are designed to minimise the impact of
weather conditions however no guarantee can be made regarding the ingress of
water. The inherent nature of a mailbox which includes a mail delivery slot does
not allow for any protection label other then that of "weather resistant". The impact of
this resistance can be relevant to geographic locations.
The manufacturers require the mailboxes or components to be returned back to
us along with proof of purchase for any claims to be considered.

Q. |
How do I care for my mailbox? |
|
A. |
Either accept that your product will gracefully age
or give it some loving care. Wash your mailbox regularly, maybe when you
wash your car. This can be particular to stainless steel as it can tend
to show dirt and or surface blemishes more readily, use a domestically
available stainless steel cleaner or treatment such as 3M Stainless
Steel Cleaner. To keep your hinges and locks functioning well
occasionally apply some lubrication or purpose lock lubrication.. Please
note that some of these processes are necessary to not void your
warranty.
