How large is the mail slot opening?

I didn't use the locking section of the mail box, not needed where I live. I ordered a black (gold letters) house number for the white mail box, looks great. The opening is 13" wide and 4" deep. The inside is 13 1/2" tall. Great for my car magazines and small mailers/packages.

The locking flap is an option. The locking flap slot opening is 12" x 1-3/8". If the locking flap is not used, then the opening is 13" x 4".

If you use the locking slot, the opening is 1 1/4 by 12 inches. Without the removable locking slot the opening is 5 by 13 inches.

Box not at hand. But there is no "slot"; entire top cover opens up on hinge. So opening size basically same as unit's top dimensions.

It is actually quite ample to allow catalogs & large envelopes to fit through easily. We are extremely pleased with our box, which we purchased about 6 months ago. We get a tremendous amount of mail including catalogs & no longer have any problem with overflow or having to retrieve mail from the bushes or the top step to our home. Hope this helps you.

I agree with Gail with this additional info for you. The portion of the flap that fills the opening, (not counting the piece for attachment) is 15-1/4" tall X 10-3/8" wide. With another 1/2" X 10-3/8" at the top for the attachment. It is VERY easy to replace.

i am away home at the moment so I cannot check the mailbox directly; my closest estimation is 2-1/2 - 3 inches; a box of checks should fit thru it. I am quite pleased with this item, excellent price and very solid.

There's a small slot for outgoing mail in the top when you pull down the front.

The mail opening is big enough for small packages, yet rest assured that no one can open the mail slot and put there hand inside.. due to the unique design of the mail slot door

The top of each slot opening is less than 10 inches long and 2 inches wide.

yes, it is. However, there is a ledge that keeps your hand from actually reaching your mail - therefore the slot works for bigger envelopes/packages, and not for letting people steal your mail if that helps.

There is a clip inside the door where the mailman's slot is. Outgoing mail goes there, but it doesn't hold alot. Yes, the mailman can easily see it.

how wide as in what thickness can fit through the slot? a couple of papers, single keys, small envelopes. It is not as long as a #10 standard office envelope. Once you drop an item inside it cannot be fished out without significant effort.

The slot is plenty wide, over ten inches. It is just under two inches high. Any bigger and a thief could get a hand in. Small parcels fit, but bigger ones have to be delivered to your door or picked up at the post office.

This is a nice bluebird box. I would say the opening is 1 1/2". Sorry, baby birds in the box so I won't bother them.

I have not measured, but that sounds right, it's very large when open. I love mine.

The slot it 10 inches long and opens to 2 1/2 inches wide. I love this toaster. When it comes to kitchen appliances it is the best investment I have made.
