Installing Mailbox on a Decorative Mailbox Post

Thank you for selecting Salsbury’s decorative mailbox post.
This instruction sheet is for installing the 4850 series mailbox on a

decorative mailbox post. Other installation instructions are available
for installing the mailboxes on a standard mailbox post or on a deluxe
mailbox post, installing the mailbox on spreaders, mounting a
newspaper holder, and mounting the post in a concrete footing.

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.

All hardware to install the mailbox is provided with the post. To
install the mailbox, set the mailbox on the decorative mailbox post
mounting plate, open the front door of the mailbox and install six (6)
5/16”-18 X 3/4” long carriage bolts into the six (6) square holes in the
floor of the mailbox and through the six (6) square holes on the
decorative mailbox post mounting plate. Install 5/16” flat washers
and 5/16”-18 hex nuts on the ends of the six (6) bolts protruding
below the bottom of the decorative mailbox post mounting plate.
Cover the hex nuts with cap plugs.

Additional hardware provided is not needed and may be discarded.
