GB DIY Store uPVC Letterbox Hinge Pin Spring Replacement Hex Pair

Great item takes less than a minute to put in place

Went outside one day to find my letterbox hanging off and hunted all over for a replacement part - this is one of the only places I could find to get these.I was a little baffled at first because mine was a single piece where as this is two pieces, but I soon realized it’s fine to pop one in each side. Once you push them in you have to turn them and you’ll know when you’ve done it correctly as they’ll little sticking out parts on one end slot into two very specific little holes which then opens and closes the letterbox.These were pretty cheap to be honest and function exactly as I needed them too, my letterbox is actually tighter now than it was before too

Postie broke the old ones so picked up these. Fantastic small springs but fiddly to fit without the recommended tool

Easy to replace only took couple of minutes to repair my letter box

Awkward to fit due to 1 being slightly larger, had to file it down 👎 very expensive for 2 little slivers of plastic!?

Helped me fix the letter box easy to use

Didn't fit my letter box at all, these plastic pins are really short, about half the length of the ones they were meant to be replacing and they have a hex head whereas the originals had a square head. Ridiculous price for about 2 grammes of plastic too. These were the only replacement letterbox springs I could find on Amazon of this type so be really sure they'll fit. It seems I'll have to buy a whole new letter box instead just because the existing springs have gone.

Good
