Ives 620B716 Magazine Mail Slot Solid Brass Aged Bronze

Product Description

The IVES 620B716 is a solid brass magazine mail slot designed for through-door mail delivery in residential and light commercial applications. The unit features a spring-loaded front flap that closes automatically after each delivery, keeping the opening sealed against drafts and debris. The back is open, allowing mail and small parcels to pass directly through to the interior. At 13.6 inches long and 4.1 inches wide, this slot accommodates standard letter-size and magazine-size mail. The Aged Bronze finish provides a period-appropriate aesthetic suited to traditional and transitional door styles. Installation is typically handled by a finish carpenter, door hardware installer, or experienced general contractor.

This mail slot is intended for exterior door applications where a flush-mounted, through-door mail delivery solution is required. The larger opening size makes it suitable for doors that receive magazine subscriptions, catalogs, or oversized envelopes in addition to standard letter mail. The Aged Bronze finish coordinates with other architectural hardware in that family. The unit ships as a single piece and is suited for both new construction and retrofit installations on doors with sufficient thickness to accommodate the slot depth.

Installation Notes

Installation requires cutting a rectangular opening in the door to match the slot dimensions — verify door thickness and core material before cutting. Power down any electronic access hardware associated with the door before beginning work. Fasten with appropriate fasteners for the door material and confirm the spring mechanism operates freely before final tightening. Work should comply with applicable local building codes governing exterior door hardware.
