Irish Green Heritage American Style Mailbox | Large Outdoor Post Box and Parcel Box
This masterfully crafted piece blends the classic high capacity American silhouette with iconic Irish heritage, finished in a deep, vibrant emerald green that commands attention.
The face of the mailbox is cast in solid aluminum, featuring traditional raised 'POST BOX' lettering and a beautifully detailed golden Celtic Harp motif. These raised elements provide a tactile, premium feel that sets this box apart from standard sheet-metal alternatives.
We’ve engineered the letter slot to double as a discreet handle. Simply pull the slot to hinge the entire face down, revealing a generous 15" x 10" (38 cm x 25 cm) aperture.
This oversized opening is specifically designed to handle modern delivery needs, easily accommodating small parcels and thick envelopes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is This Post Box Weatherproof?
Absolutely, all of our boxes are carefully primed before being powder coated. This technique of priming and then powder coating offers excellent long term adhesion. This means our post boxes can withstand a range of weather conditions, from rain and snow to intense sunlight.
Why is Aluminium Ideal for Postboxes?
We have selected aluminium for this design because it offers the perfect balance of heritage style and modern durability. Unlike traditional iron, aluminium provides several key benefits for your home:
- Rust-Proof Performance: Aluminium naturally resists corrosion, meaning it will never rust, even in the wettest British weather or coastal environments.
- Lightweight & Sturdy: It is much lighter than cast iron, making it easy to install on garden fences, gates, or posts without causing them to sag.
- Long-Lasting Finish: Aluminium holds our "Post Office Red" powder coating exceptionally well, preventing the paint from bubbling or flaking over time.
- Low Maintenance: Because the metal is so stable, it requires nothing more than an occasional wipe with a damp cloth to keep the ER insignia looking sharp.
How Do I Care and Maintain My Post Box?
Caring for your post box is simple and straightforward.
We recommend regularly wiping down the post box with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. If you live in a coastal area, more frequent cleaning may be required to protect against the salty air.
For cast iron and steel post boxes, it’s important to touch up any scratches or chips in the paintwork promptly to prevent rust. If rust does appear, gently sand the affected area and apply a matching metal paint to cover it.
Ensure you do not use corrosive cleaners, as these can damage the material and paint finish.
Does The Flag Move?
Yes, the signal flag is fully functional. In the traditional style, you can raise it to signal to the household (or a visiting courier) that there is mail waiting inside. It is attached with a sturdy pivot to ensure it stays in place whether up or down.
Is The Mailbox Safe and Secure?
This model is a traditional "non-locking" pull-down design, prioritising ease of access for both the postman and the homeowner. It is ideal for secure driveways, porches, or wall-mounted positions within your property boundary.
Is The Paint Finish Durable?
Our post boxes are finished with a very durable powder coated paint, which is designed to resist weathering, chipping, and fading.
This type of finish not only enhances the post box’s appearance but also contributes to its longevity by providing an additional layer of protection against rust and corrosion.
Can I Customise the Colour?
We are working to offer this service in the future, however we are not currently offering custom colours or bespoke changes to the post box designs.
