For Architects: Time Is Precious, Get to the Nuts & Bolts

Everything you need to specify a mailbox installation correctly the first time, the actual AS/NZS 4253 standard, what Australia Post requires by property type, size tables, and the compliance traps that catch out 70% of mailboxes sold off the shelf.

MM332 - W.A. Installation, Abstract

Get to the Nuts and Bolts

We know time is precious for architects, so here is the resource hub built to get you to the answer fast. Below you'll find the actual extract from AS/NZS 4253-1994 covering mailbox requirements, Australia Post's own published guidance by property type, and our size tables and model styles, everything needed to specify confidently the first time.

We've also included some plain-speaking on where the published guidance falls short in practice, based on real installations and real conversations with Australia Post delivery centres. If you'd rather skip the reading and just ask us directly, our team is one quick email away.
