Do you have a picture of how it opens?

The hinge is on the bottom and standard mailbox clasp at the top. I am not sure I would do it the same way again. The hatch is very heavy and held closed by the clasp, friction with the boot and six counter sunk Neodymium magnets. I won’t be surprised if I have to go out and fix it periodically.

What happens if the mailman has a DIN regulator? You may want to provide a convertible valve. USPS regulations demand that. Also, is that yellow color within code?

I'd need doubles , one for mail, and one for the newspaper.
