Stand colors
Rust
The corroded version, commonly known as „rust“, offers a nice contrast to the plain chrome steel surface of the mailbox. In order to achieve the desired rust effect on receipt, the surface is treated and only then does nature complete the individual rust pattern. The corrosion itself is harmless for the mounting. It cannot harm the massive strength of the steel. No corroded surface is the same. A unique piece made by nature.
Anthracite
The default color for the stands is anthracite (RAL 7016). This dark warm grey is a matching choice to the stainless steel of the box. In this version the stand is first sand blasted, then cleaned and finally powder coated in anthracite. After baking the paint, the steel is immune to any environmental influences. The corrosion not desired here, has no chance.
Pearl mouse grey
The second default color for the stands is pearl mouse grey (RAL 7048). For all those for whom the anthracite is too dark, the pearl mouse grey is an excellent alternative. Also with this color the stand is first sandblasted, cleaned and then powder coated in pearl mouse grey. Here the same, the color is baked into the steel and becomes resistant to corrosion.
Individual
Of course you can get the stand in any color you wish. The entire range of the RAL spectrum is at your disposal. Suitable for your house, your garage or your garden design. Just give us the RAL code and we will have the stand coated according to your wishes. Due to the neutral appearance of the postbox, it will match any color.

Labeling
Name tag
When labeling the letter box, two lines are available. The inscription is carried out according to postal standards and is applied directly to the surface.

The inscription is an including service in the price of the complete product.

Mounting instructions for freestanding solution
In order to mount the freestanding boxes of x-level.ch reliably on the ground, a foundation is preferably created. This should have the dimensions of 50x50cm and a depth of 30-60 cm. The concrete layer for the freestanding mailbox should be at least 25 cm and underneath there can be a rough gravel of about 10 cm. Ideally, you should place the mailbox on the foundation first and align it. When the placement of the stand fits, mark the drill holes. The drill diameter must be 12 mm for the supplied dowels. Screws and dowels are supplied with the letter box.
If necessary, consult a specialist for professional fitting of the design mailbox.
General information
The designer pulp box protects the mail from rain. Please make sure that in case of free standing boxes the insertion side is ideally turned away from the weather side. In this way, water is prevented from entering the letter box.
Maintenance
Please maintain your mailbox, especially when it is dirty or exposed to harsh environmental influences (e.g. road salt in winter). This will guarantee a sustainable durability. The powder coated surfaces as well as all other surfaces are to be cleaned with warm water with the addition of household cleaners. Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned and maintained with the stainless steel cleaners from your kitchen. Please do not use any mechanically acting or oxide dissolving care products. These attack the anodized layers and destroy the surfaces. Door hinges and locks should be treated with lubricants twice a year.
Long life and a flawless appearance are the reward for your efforts.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
In the table below you will find questions that we are frequently asked. Possibly your question is also included below. If not, simply contact us via the contact form..
In what colours are the designer mailbox stands available?
Are the mailbox stands painted?
- Mechanically resilient: The tough powder coating remains dynamic and less likely to crack.
- Resistant to weathering: The thermo elastic powder only hardens completely after many years, and therefore becomes brittle late and can withstand the weather for a long time.
- Environmentally friendly: powder coatings are processed without solvents. The overspray (non adhesive powder) is very little and is collected and recovered by modern filter systems.

Location
The property owner is responsible for ensuring that a freely accessible mailbox with a letterbox and storage compartment is set up for each delivery address.
- One family and two family houses, terraced houses, groups of houses: Place the letterbox at the boundary of the property when accessing the house or group of houses. Select the location closest to the street used by the delivery service.
- Apartment buildings: apartment buildings are houses with more than two households. Here, the mailboxes can be placed near the house entrances. They must be freely accessible (not behind a locked entrance door) and easily accessible from the street. Choose a place that is bright, if possible next to the bell device. If there are several mailboxes for the same house, a single location should be chosen.
- Ferien- und Wochenendhäuser: Holiday and weekend homes: The post office can designate a central mailbox location as the delivery point on the driveway or in groups of houses.
