16 Door Cluster Mail Box Unit, Residential Mailboxes, Mail Box, Apartment Mailboxes Factory DirectOffice mail centers and apartment mailboxes are very different than those used for residential mail delivery.  Homes normally have a box on a post, or they have a box near the front door.  In commercial arenas and apartment complexes, however, boxes that are used for sending and receiving mail were designed according to the specific needs of these industries.

The need for different box types was recognized very early in the twentieth century. Commercial buildings that housed hundreds of offices had limited wall space.  Apartment complexes that were built also had limited wall space due to the need to use most of the building itself for housing units. 

 

Vertical-4-Door-Front-Loading-MailboxesNew types of boxes had to be designed for maximum wall space efficiency.  In a building with only part of a wall dedicated to servicing all the companies on that floor, mail delivery units had to be arranged in columns and rows that would fit the available space at hand.  In apartment complexes, the nature and the arrangement of boxes had to vary more than those used in buildings, because the size, number, and positioning of boxes was relative to the size of the complex. 

 

Both office mail centers and apartment mailboxes had to also be more secure than those used in houses.  Locks were developed to allow each user to access his or her mail privately.  Also, the need to separate massive amounts of ingoing, outgoing mail, and package led to the evolution of mail delivery unit configurations that dedicate certain units to outgoing mail and parcel delivery and pickup.

 

2-Door-Outdoor-Parcel-Storage-LockerWe can see then why today’s choices in office mail centers and apartment mailboxes can, at face value, appear overwhelming.  People are often shocked by the sheer numbers of unit box sizes, dimensions, mounting options, and configurations.  Determining the number of ingoing, outgoing, and parcel units is even further complicated by USPS regulations that require certain numbers of units per numbers of users in residential housing.

 

We can simplify a great deal of this complexity for our clients simply by looking at practical need and then referencing key features of the many model options we can provide in office mail centers and for apartment mailboxes. 

 

Vertical-6-Door-Front-Loading-MailboxesThere are certain basic characteristics of all models that can be matched to practical need with the help of our team.  Materials such as aluminum or fine brass are used to make boxes durable and enduringly attractive.  Options in vertical and horizontal configurations allow the exact number of necessary units to be efficiently mounted on whatever available wall space there is.  Recessed units are available for new constructions.  Surface mounts make it easier to add office mail centers and apartment mailboxes to facilities that are undergoing a remodel. 

 

12-Door-Cluster-Mail-Box-Unit-with-Parcel-LockerThere are also two different options in loading.  Front loading units are easier for mail carriers to access and require no mail room or corridor behind the wall.  Rear loading units are smaller, and therefore better for very large numbers of users.  They can be installed anywhere where there is a mail access corridor or room that carriers can use to load and unload boxes from behind the wall.
