Stella 2 Upgrade: Rear Cover Now Included for All New Batches

The latest batch of our Stella 2 letterbox (SKUs 573S-xxx) now includes a refined rear cover designed to keep your setup looking tidy from every angle. Whether you’re installing on PVC, timber or brick, the rear cover neatly hides the fence cut-out and gives the back of the letterbox the same polished finish as the front.

This update comes directly from customer feedback — homeowners loved the clean look of Stella 2, but wanted a way to tidy the rear opening when mounting through a fence. So we redesigned the rear detail to match the standard our customers expect.

Why the rear cover matters

Most fence-mounted letterboxes require a rear cut-out so the parcel door and mail access can function. Without a cover, that opening can look unfinished — especially on lighter-coloured PVC or timber fencing.

The Stella 2 rear cover solves this by:

  • Concealing the fence cut-out for a cleaner finish
  • Creating a smooth, uniform rear panel that looks intentional
  • Improving the overall presentation of your fence line
  • Adding durability and protection around the opening

It’s a simple change that makes a noticeable difference to the final install.

What’s new in the latest batch

The new Stella 2 (SKU 573S-xxx) now comes with the rear cover included by default.
Previously, earlier versions (SKU 573-xxx) were supplied without the cover — these are still available in limited quantities.

Both versions function the same, but the covered rear offers a more seamless look for modern fences.

Before & after: a clear upgrade

In the images on this page, you’ll see real installation examples that show:

  • Before: the standard fence cut-out is visible
  • After: the rear cover sits flush and clean, completing the look

These images make it easy to see how much tidier a fence letterbox can look with the new rear panel.

How the rear cover works

The cover sits neatly over the rear access door and mounting bracket, hiding structural elements without affecting parcel capacity or daily use.

  • It doesn’t change the internal volume
  • No impact on parcel delivery or mail access
  • No extra steps required during installation
  • Compatible with the same fence-mount methods as the original design

Designed around real customer needs

This update is part of our ongoing focus on refining each model based on real homes, real installs, and real feedback. Stella 2 has always been one of our most practical fence letterboxes — the rear cover simply completes the picture.

Choosing between versions

  • 573S-xxx: new version, includes rear cover as standard
  • 573-xxx: original version, available while stock lasts

If you prefer the clean, fully finished look on your fence, the new 573s series is the way to go.
