Installation Instructions
Installing Mailbox on a Standard Mailbox Post
Thank you for selecting Salsbury’s standard mailbox post. We are
confident that the quality and construction of the post will prove to be
a good investment. This instruction sheet is for installing the
Salsbury 4850 mailbox on a Salsbury standard mailbox post.
When you install a curbside or rural mailbox, make sure that it is
easily accessible to the mail carrier. By regulation it should be 41” to
45” from the ground or street surface up to the inside floor of the
mailbox. The door should be set back 6” to 8” back from the front
face of the curb or the road edge. However, you should check with
your local postmaster to ensure that the mailbox is installed
according to local regulations.
The top plate of the standard rural mailbox post has four tapped
holes. There are four 5/16” hex washer head bolts provided with the
post to attach the mailbox to the post. Open the front door of the
mailbox and install the four hex washer head bolts through the four
holes in the inside floor of the mailbox and through the four tapped
holes on the top plate of the standard rural mailbox post.
