RECOMMENDATIONS


Interior Slot Plate:

• For horizontal mail slots only, not vertical.


• For ease of mail insertion, an interior plate or draught excluder without a flap is ideal.  If present, you may remove the flap, replace the plate, or not use a plate.


• Snail Sakk works well with hooded interior plates, but will bulge slightly in appearance.  The hood will also change the distance from which the adhesive, hook fastener strips are placed.  If this is undesirable, then please replace the hood for a flat plate or no plate.


Adhesive Strips:

• Placement: The adhesive, hook fastener strips are standardly placed 3.75" apart.  If needed, there's a leeway of a quarter inch in either direction.


• Surfaces: The adhesive, hook fastener strips that are included adhere well to wood, fiberglass and metal.  Be sure that the surface is clean, dry, and if painted, that it is not bubbling or peeling (In such case, sanding the area of loose particles is recommended.)


• Other Surfaces/High Temp:  For glass, vinyl, pvc or high temperature exposure (120 - 225 degrees farenheit), we recommend using acrylic adhesive hook fastener strips, sold separately under the "Accessories" tab above. 


• Drywall:  If using on a drywall surface, please secure the adhesive strips with drywall screws and plugs.  Accessing the mail from the sides rather than pulling down a top corner is also helpful to avoid tugging at the drywall's surface (a thin paper).

 

• Cleaners:  The adhesive strips should not be exposed to citrus based cleaners, otherwise it will likely reduce the bond.

 

• Relocating: If relocating your Snail Sakk® to a different door, you'll need an additional pair of adhesive, hook fastener strips.  Extra strips are sold under the "Accessories" tab above.


• Removal: If wishing to remove the adhesive, hook fastener strips from a door, simply apply a liberal amount of Goo Gone to the back of the strip as you pull it off, and it will easily come off without removing normal (non-bubbling/non-peeling) paint from your door.  Goo Gone Mess-Free Pens are sold under the "Accessories" tab above.


Ironing:

• After removing from packaging, you can iron the Snail Sakk® of any folding creases.  While in use, the sakk is very wrinkle resistant.


Drafts:

• A tight sealing flap on your exterior mail slot plate is helpful in reducing drafts.  New mail slot plates are available for purchase under the "Mail Slots & Draught Excluders" tab above.


• Installing either an interior draught excluder (without flap) or exterior one (with flap) will also help to block drafts.   


Pets:

• As an additional deterrent for particularly tenacious pets, you may wish to spray Bitter Apple (from a pet store) onto the sakk.
