PLEASE NOTE: from June 2010 the treatment colour will now be Rustic Brown (quite dark - not yet pictured on this page)

MilkSafe is a convenient store for milk bottles, when they are either full or empty.

MilkSafe will protect your milk from cats, birds and the heat of the summer sun.

Constructed in 9mm, long lasting birch plywood (grade B or S, often specified for boats). Roofing felt (using stainless steel staples) covers the lid which is fixed with 2 brass hinges.

This has excellent weather resistance and can take a lot of abuse.

The weight of the lid is enough to protect the milk bottles from prying birds and animals.

The treated version is generously, but carefully hand painted with 2 coats of Cuprinol "TimberCare" (TM).

The lockable option means you do not require a padlock. The milkman can lock it without a key. Then a key is required to reopen it.

The wall mounted model stands proud of the wall to allow the lid to open. Please note: a special screwdriver is sent to you with this item - you can buy these anywhere - but we send one to you on loan, and we ask you to post this back after installation (this is not pre-paid).

The milkman friendly model (shown in the lowest picture) is always wall mounted. This MilkSafe has a separate, back-tilted shelf to hold the empties. This allows the Milkman to deliver the milk in one smooth operation. With the other models he has to put the full bottles he is delivering on to the ground, take out the empties and put these down, then pick up the full bottles again to lift them into the box.

The thermal jacket is recommended if you already suffer well cooked milk i.e. it stays out towards midday.


SG from Scotland comments:
The safe is great, I lined it with foil as you suggested and it works a treat. The local cats can't get at the milk and my postman sometimes uses it for small parcels - how versatile is that hahaha?
