Greenteq Omega 12 Inch Heavy Duty Letterbox

GreenteQ Omega 12" Metal Letterbox - Heavy Duty Sprung Flap 40-80mm

Premium all-metal construction with advanced weather sealing for lasting draught protection and silent operation.

GreenteQ Omega Letterbox represents the pinnacle of British door furniture engineering, combining robust all-metal construction with sophisticated weather protection systems. Designed specifically for modern uPVC and composite doors with 40-80mm mid-rails, this 325mm letterbox transforms your entrance with elegant sculptured styling whilst delivering superior performance that inferior plastic alternatives simply cannot match.

Constructed from solid metal components and rigorously salt-tested for over 500 hours, the Omega letterbox withstands the harshest British weather conditions without corroding or degrading. The intelligent dual-seal system combines soft nylon brush seals internally with thermoplastic rubber (TPR) and polyethylene seals externally, creating an impenetrable barrier against draughts, rain, and heat loss – helping to reduce your energy bills year-round.

Key Benefits:

• Quiet Cushioned Closing – Innovative spring mechanism ensures both internal and external flaps close silently without rattling, eliminating the annoying noise that plagues cheaper letterboxes whilst protecting against wind-blown banging.
• Superior Weather Protection – Triple-seal technology combining internal brush seals with external TPR and polyethylene gaskets blocks draughts, prevents water ingress, and significantly reduces heat loss through your door mid-rail.
• Engineered for Longevity – Solid metal frame construction tested to 500+ hours salt spray exposure ensures this letterbox won't rust, warp, or discolour like inferior plastic alternatives, maintaining its premium appearance for decades.
• 180° Opening – Both flaps open to a full 180 degrees, preventing accidental shearing or spring damage that occurs with restrictive letterboxes, whilst accommodating bulky parcels and padded envelopes effortlessly.
• Access Design – Sculptured finger recesses on the lower frame provide comfortable grip points for easy opening, particularly beneficial for elderly users or those with reduced dexterity.
• Versatile Installation Options – Choose between secure through-fixing using the supplied M6 screws (penetrating through your door for maximum strength) or surface-mounting with appropriate screws for your door type – ideal for DIY installation.
• Door Compatibility – Accommodates door mid-rail thicknesses from 40mm up to 80mm, making it suitable for uPVC, composite, and timber entrance doors.
• Premium Finish Options – Available in six sophisticated finishes (White, Chrome, PVD Gold, Satin Chrome, Smokey Chrome, and Black) designed to coordinate perfectly with the GreenteQ furniture range for a cohesive door aesthetic.
• Accurate Sizing Guidance – Requires a minimum aperture of 256mm x 45mm, whilst the external dimensions of 325mm x 78mm provide generous coverage to conceal existing holes and imperfections in your door panel.
• Engineering – GreenteQ's signature groove detailing on flaps and curved end profiles deliver that distinctive designer look that sets your entrance apart from standard letterboxes.

*Please measure your existing letterbox aperture carefully before ordering. The door mid-rail can be easily trimmed if required using a hacksaw to achieve the perfect fit.

Pro Tips:

Pro Tip: When measuring for replacement, remove your old letterbox completely and measure the actual aperture (hole) in your door panel – not the external frame dimensions. If your new Omega letterbox is slightly smaller than the existing hole, don't worry; the 325mm external surround will easily cover any gaps. For mid-rail thickness, measure from the inside face to the outside face of your door panel where the letterbox sits. If in doubt between 40/80mm sizes, choose the larger capacity model for easier installation with adjustment room.

Package Contents:

Frequently Asked Questions:

Will this letterbox fit my existing door aperture?
The Omega requires a minimum aperture of 256mm wide × 45mm high in your door panel. If your existing letterbox hole is this size or larger, the Omega will fit perfectly – the 325mm external surround will cover any gaps. Most standard UK letterboxes use similar sizing, making replacement straightforward. The 40-80mm thickness range accommodates virtually all modern uPVC and composite door mid-rails.

How do I stop draughts coming through my letterbox?
The Omega features GreenteQ's advanced triple-seal technology specifically designed to eliminate draughts. Internal soft nylon brushes block airflow from inside, whilst the external thermoplastic rubber and polyethylene seals create a weatherproof barrier against wind and rain. The cushioned closing mechanism ensures both flaps seal tightly without gaps, delivering superior draught protection compared to standard letterboxes that often whistle or rattle in windy conditions.

Can I install this letterbox myself, or do I need a professional?
The Omega is designed for straightforward DIY installation by homeowners with basic tools. You have two installation options: through-fixing (using the supplied M6 screws that penetrate completely through your door for maximum security) or surface-mounting (using appropriate length screws for your door type). Simply remove your old letterbox, check the aperture dimensions, and follow the fixing hole centres at 275mm apart. Most installations take 15-30 minutes with a drill and screwdriver.
