Hardware
Mailbox mounting hardware is included with all new Architectural
Mailboxes posts and 4x4 wood-post adapters. If you are using an
existing post, not made by Architectural Mailboxes, please reference
the mounting hole diameter and pattern in Option 2 to determine
the hardware you will need for installation.
CUSTOMERS ARE REQUIRED TO CONTACT THE LOCAL
POST OFFICE BEFORE INSTALLING THE MAILBOX TO
ENSURE ITS CORRECT PLACEMENT AND HEIGHT AT
THE STREET. GENERALLY, MAILBOXES ARE INSTALLED
AT A HEIGHT OF 41–45 INCHES FROM THE ROAD
SURFACE TO EITHER THE INSIDE SURFACE OF THE
MAILBOX THAT THE MAIL IS PLACED ON BY THE
CARRIER OR TO THE LOWEST EDGE OF MAIL ENTRY
(FOR LOCKED MAIL SLOT DESIGNS) AND ARE SET

Option 1
For use with Architectural
Mailboxes Patriot mounting
plate or Patriot Mailbox Post
Kit (sold separately)...
Bolt the mounting bracket to the
sturdy post, snap the mailbox to the
bracket and push onto locking tabs
until engaged (no special tools
required).
Option 2
For use with non-Architectural Mailboxes posts...
Identify if your existing post or mounting surface has a matching
hole pattern with the mailbox. If there are no matching hole
patterns, you will need an adapter plate or piece of wood to drill
the mounting holes into. Architectural Mailboxes does not
recommend drilling new holes in the mailbox, as that will expose
untreated metal and void the product warranty. Use the drawings
below for suggested bolt sizes to use with your mailbox.
