Can I get a replacement letterbox assembly for uPVC panel?

The letterbox in my porch is in a uPVC panel (not in the door). The hinge mounting for the flap on the outside broke, so I swapped the inside and outside units (they are plastic units where the tubes which form the penetration through the panel (which is 2-3 inches thick and filled with polystrene insulation) telescope together). Now the outside hinge mount has broken, so I need two new letterbox units which slot together and fit the cutout in my panel. Where would I get them from?

Try "safensoundltd.com" we have a good selction with different colours available. The letterboxes come as a complete unit (inside and outside) including the plastic sleeves that go inside the frame. The aperture depth size range needs to be 40-80 mm to fit in a midrail/frame and 20-40 mm to fit in a pvcu pannel. If you aren't sure which size range to buy then go for one with the larger aperture depth as you can always cut the plastic sleeves down using a hack saw. We stock all types of hardware at "safe n sound ltd" to enable upvc windows and doors to keep working. You can also contact us on 01422 378558 for any assistance.
