Actually Robins will nest in boxes but they won't use boxes designed for the Tit family. Use a template for an open fronted nest box & place it somewhere under cover & away from prying eyes (including yours). Robins will abandon their nest if they are disturbed. You need to also make sure that it's also inaccessible to predators such as Jays, Magpies, Cats etc. A regular supply of live mealy worms will also help. Templates for both types of box are here: http://www.bto.org/nnbw/make.htm American robins are not cavity nesters, but the EUROPEAN ONES MAY.
