Architectural Mailboxes Metropolis Wall Mailbox, Stainless Steel..
Architectural Mailboxes Metropolis Wall Mailbox, Stainless Steel Satin FinishI purchased the Metropolis Wall Mount mailbox to mount on our front gate (no roof overhead). I thought the hinged lid over the slot would help to keep rain out of the box, but I was wrong, water seems to blow right into the box from around the front door hatch causing my mail to be soaking wet when I open it up. I will look to weatherproof the door to reduce this occurance but be aware that if you install this out in the weather, your mail will get wet.

| Author: A. Dewolfe (Huntington B.. | The mailbox looked great in the photograph, just what I was looking for. However when it arrived I was disappointed in the poor quality of the stainless steel (very thin). And the door was not aligned at the top. The item was made in China and the workmanship did not reflect the price of the item. | 9 | |
