Box dimensions Robin's nest?

I have a wooden nest box that I have done according to instructions obtained from a book by RSPB. I firmly secured to a post in our small garden, at a height of about 7 ". has been in place for over a year and although we have seen robins in our garden none of them has chosen to build a nest in the box. The entrance is almost square, 4.25 "wide and just under 4" deep. It is the latter that worries me. 4 "seems too? I know that robins nest in various places peculiar and I've seen, have very narrow entrances. For example, a small Royal Mail post office box with an opening of probably only about 2 ". Certainly 4" allows easier access for predators and lets in more wind and rain? I'm thinking of reducing the opening, but would welcome advice from anyone with knowledge and / or experience of the Robin's nest boxes. Thank you very much!

hmmm i dont know Ure wat say
