Postmaster Professional TS008 Slim Letterplate
Introducing the Postmaster Professional TS008 Slim Letterplate
The Postmaster Professional TS008 Slim Letterplate offers a perfect blend of security, durability, and sleek design. Engineered to meet the highest industry standards, this versatile solution is suitable for both residential applications. With robust features such as a concealed hinge mechanism, exceptional weather sealing, and corrosion-resistant materials, it ensures reliable, long-lasting performance.
Designed for easy installation and rigorously tested for endurance, it enhances the safety while providing peace of mind. This technical innovation is specifically developed to resist opportunist attacks making it ideal for all letterplate assemblies and slide-through boxes that allow mail to pass through doors.
Features and Benefits
- Barrier Protection: This system features dual side plate shields that automatically extend when the internal flap is opened, offering additional security by blocking external access to the thumb turn or key
- CombShield Defence: Technology obstructs the view through the letterplate preventing attackers from visually gauging the position of items inside the home. Furthermore, the cleverly designed CombShield technology works by incorporating comb-like teeth that act as barriers, reducing the ability for a fishing rod to move side-to-side and potentially preventing unauthorised retrieval of items like keys or small valuables adding an additional layer of security to your door.
- Final-Fixing Fastener: To facilitate easy installation of the letterplate, a specially designed final-fixing fastener has been developed. The screw pin can be easily inserted during the final steps of installation, making it straightforward to capture the side shield slots. A standard Allen hex key requires only a few turns to secure the assembly effectively. Additionally, the design of the pin ensures quiet operation and enhanced durability, thanks to its innovative design and stainless-steel material.
- Adjustable channel: The adjustable channel design allows for accommodating a range of door leaf thicknesses. For doors measuring 44mm to 54mm thick, the channel is set at a lower position, while for thicknesses of up to 63mm, the channel can be raised to a higher position. This method of adjustment ensures that the letterplate retains its sleek, slimline aesthetic while simultaneously meeting the stringent requirements of TS008 testing.
- Positive Stop Flap: The inner flap comes equipped with a positive stop feature to prevent tampering and 'fishing' attempts.
- Concealed Hinge Design: The internal design houses a unique concealed hinge mechanism for added security and durability.
- Stand-Alone Unit: Available as a self-contained, stand-alone unit that requires no additional attachments for installation.
