Installing Mailbox on a Classic Mailbox Post
Thank you for selecting Salsbury’s 4890 classic 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 assembling the 4890 mailbox post and
installing the mailbox on a Salsbury 4890 classic mailbox post. Other
installation instructions are available for installing the mailbox on a 1-
sided (4891) or 2-sided (4892) classic post and mounting the post in
a concrete footing or into the ground.
When you install a curbside or roadside 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.
