Upon realizing the standard mail slot was due for modernizing, the BOTA mail slot insulator was born as a versatile upgrade and solution to the issues that accompany traditional mail slots. Our insulator effectively eliminates drafts. At BOTA, we’ve thoughtfully engineered an update for a classic; built with highest-quality materials, BOTA is easy to install where no tools are required, and will upgrade your snail mail game in minutes. Just two hands are required to click the insulator apart horizontally and vertically against insulating foam. BOTA's dual-sided protection safeguards your home from weather and increase the safety of mail carriers, at the same time. The insulator is patented, and has a steel-bar design that employs neodymium magnets to ensure closure security, and provides more protection to a mail carrier’s hands from domestic pets. Our insulating flap is a custom blend that ensures flexibility and longevity, combining the efficacy of medical space use and the durability of truck beds. It is water resistant and is able to conform, and take on the new shape of the vertically and horizontally adjusted to mail slot insulator opening within a time span of couple hours up to about one day. The mail carrier is able to deliver without forming accordion bends in the mail pieces or forcing mail through the slot. Lastly, the aesthetic appeal of the front door is able to be maintained, since the insulator is installed within the door mail slot cutout. Historic homes are able to keep a century old mail slot, and newer homes are able to feature a more modern mail slot where both styles are now able to have an insulated mail slot opening.
