Consider these Points Before Installing:
A) Follow any USPS setback requirements.
B) The front and side edges of the post will end up at 9" back from the finished
front and sides of the mailbox enclosure when installed. Allow for a 24" x
24" overall footprint being sure that the ground is clear and level.
Do not install in grass areas or lawn.
Damage caused by lawn or garden equipment is not covered
under the warranty.
Step 1 - Prepare the Post
A) The mailbox enclosure is designed to fit over a standard 4" x 4" pressure
treated post. Make sure the front post is EXACTLY parallel to the direction
you want the mailbox to face. If the post is off the mailbox will not face the
desired direction.
B) Make sure the post is plumb in both directions. If the post is not plumb, the
mailbox may appear crooked or skewed once the installation is finished.
C) If possible leave the post long until the exact height has been measured.
Set into the concrete approximately 18" with an above ground height of at
least 36".
Step 2 - Attach the Bottom Bracket
Slide the bottom bracket (#1)over the post keeping the lip on the bottom
side. Level the bracket at the desired base height and attach to the post with 1
- 2 " screw per side. Secure through the inner ring of the bracket into the side of the
post.
Step 3 Attach the 2nd bracket. Measure up 24 1/2” from the top of Bracket
#1.Mark a line. Slide the 2nd ring down and secure with the top of the bracket on this line, us-
ing the same procedure as described in Step 2. Make sure the front of the ring is pointing to the
front of the post.
Step 4 - Measure and Cut Post
Measure 35" up from the top of the attached bracket #1. Use a speed square to mark all 4
