Installation instructions: Letterbox plates
All Peninsula House Numbers orders come with a print out of installation instructions, and your installation template. We've also detailed them below if you're wanting to get prepared - or if your instructions have gone missing.
01
Gather letterbox plate, template and rods. Not included: spirit level, tape, epoxy adhesive [Selleys Araldite] drill and 4mm bit. Brick or concrete may require a hammer drill and 4mm masonry bit.
02
Tape template at desired location. Use a spirit level to align. Drill holes through template at marked points using 4mm drill bit then remove template.
03
Gently hand screw rods into pre-drilled holes on back of the letterbox plate. Avoid cross threading by ensuring the rod is pointing directly in to the hole when screwing, and not at an angle.
04
Apply a small amount of epoxy adhesive to the end of the exposed rods and push plate into holes. Light tapping with a hammer may be required. Take care to not scratch the face of the letterbox plate.
