What is Secured by Design?

Secured by Design (SBD) is an official police security initiative launched in 1989 to “design out crime” by promoting high-quality security solutions in the built environment. Through close collaboration with businesses, developers, and manufacturers, this initiative helps create safer buildings, environments, and communities by reducing opportunities for criminal activity.

Moreover, the scheme certifies products that undergo rigorous testing to meet stringent security standards. By doing so, it helps prevent crimes such as mail theft and vandalism. At The Safety Letterbox Company, securing SBD approval means we submit our products to extensive evaluation, ensuring they deliver superior protection against security threats.

2-Hour Fire-Rated Mail and Parcel Boxes

These boxes combine the best in security and fire protection, meeting both SBD Homes standards and offering exceptional resistance to fire risks. Perfect for both residential and commercial properties, they ensure peace of mind in any situation.

The 2 hour mailbox fire rating test is conducted by firstly removing the backs of our mailboxes, before placing them in a furnace at 1030°C for 136 minutes. Despite the intense heat, our mailboxes maintained their integrity, successfully achieving the 2 hour fire rating certification in accordance with BS EN 1363-1:2012. The tests covered freestanding units as well as those installed in both masonry and plasterboard walls.
