The first mail service in Australia commenced in 1809 and since then homes and businesses have been using receptacles of some sort to receive items of mail as it is delivered, and if like most of the population you have rarely given your letterbox much consideration it is likely that you are not familiar with the Kain Lucas designed range of unusual and unique letter boxes for sale from Arko.

For 15 years Arko have been producing a range of designer mailboxes, available across Australia, featuring wall mounted post boxes and post mounted letterboxes all designed and manufactured in their home city of Melbourne. Amongst the variety of refined and sophisticated letter box designs in the Arko range, there are some constants that apply to each and every designer letterbox, most notably the precise quality of workmanship applied to the manufacturing process which is undertaken by local craftsmen within close proximity to the city. Ensuring the excellence of each contemporary stainless steel letterbox that is produced goes hand in hand with a commitment to sustainability, and the local production of goods made with recyclable steel bears testament to efforts to reduce the impact upon the natural environment.

The styling of the Arko letter boxes is carefully considered and draws inspiration from many sources; the Apex post mounted letterbox is reminiscent of a mid-century letterbox, but with the durability and functionality that you would expect today. As the primary function of any modern letter box is to store your mail, safely and securely all Arko post boxes provide secure lockable but readily accessible mail housing compartments and a couple within the range also provide independent housing for periodicals and newspapers; in particular the Cove, a stylish post mounted letterbox includes an acrylic tube which is presented in contrasting colours adding a touch of vibrancy and effervescence to its surroundings.
