Letterbox Cowl Visor Guard
A slim, unobtrusive white visor that attaches inside your door. It prevents criminals from “fishing” keys or valuables through the letter slot, a trending method of forced entry. Ideal for uPVC doors—mounting screws included.
Fire‑Retardant Letterbox Bag (Internal Security Cover)
Crafted from patented self-extinguishing fabric, this elegant bag safely contains outgoing mail—blocking drafts and visibility, deterring theft, and even containing small fires. Locks securely and installs in minutes on nearly any door.
Boosted Security:
Visor guard protects against intrusion attempts via the letter slot.
Security bag hides mail from view, deters burglars, and secures deliveries—even during your absence.
Fire Safety:
The retardant bag minimizes the risk of arson through the mail slot by containing flames, offering peace of mind for high-risk properties.
Sleek & Functional Design:
The visor guard is discreet and simple to install with minimal tools.
The bag fits most doors quickly and can be locked or removed effortlessly.
Protects Mail Integrity:
Prevents bulky items from getting torn or bent and ensures secure retention inside the door.
Two ways: 'fishing' — hooking car keys or house keys off hall tables through the flap — and reaching through to operate thumb turns, handles or snib latches. Both take seconds on an unprotected letterbox and leave almost no trace.
A hooded cowl or cage fitted over the letterbox opening inside the door. Mail drops through normally, but hands and fishing rods can't reach the lock or nearby keys. It fits uPVC, composite and timber doors in minutes and is the single best letterbox defence.
A fire-resistant fabric bag mounted inside the door that catches everything posted through — including ignited material — containing it safely. They're specified for properties at arson risk and increasingly fitted by landlords and housing associations as standard.
Keep keys well away from the door and out of sight, choose a key-both-sides cylinder rather than a thumb turn near the letterbox, and fit an internal cowl. The hardware costs a few pounds; the habit costs nothing.
Internal covers and fire bags fit uPVC, composite and timber doors — they mount around the aperture inside, independent of the external flap. Check the aperture dimensions against the product's stated range before ordering.
