If flower boxes are supposed to be drilled into siding, wouldn't about 4 of these hold a flower box? [hypothetically]

I would say the flower box, dirt, water along with the plants would be too heavy for the hooks.

In my opinion, no. I think they would weigh too much once you put the dirt in them.

I personally would not use these to hang a flower box, as I don't think it would be sturdy enough. I would mount a shelf to set the flower box on.

If you use both hooks that come in the package, you maybe OK provided the mailbox is not very heavy. There is also the issue of your siding holding up to the weight as well. I'd think that both hooks can probably easily support 10 lbs.

That is an interesting thought. There is no "back" to the rack so they will fall through and the top rack will not hold your boxes. You might be better off buying an organization system that is meant to be vertical.

The shelf is pretty and if the holes were right it would hold a plant. If you are handy and can fix it(I am not) you could fix it. Istill use it but i have to balance the things I put on a shelf.

probably, but you need to space them closer together than with the rubber mulch border, to hold everything in place

From my experince of putting one in, I would say yes, but they would have to be installed in a way that each pulls out seperatly.. You could not pull them out together.

I'm not sure but if you get them in correctly I don't see why it wouldn't hold a mailbox. I assume you will be using two for a mailbox so I don't think you should have any problem at all. They are actually heavier than I needed to hold up a star! Just be sure you have them in securely before attaching the mailbox. If it doesn't work you wouldn't have lost to much.

They are strong enough to stack, but it would not be very stable without bolting them together. There are probably some less expensive options as well.

I needed a bracket as the mailbox has widely spaced holes. You may be able to drill your own holes to go into a 4x4 post but I'm not sure how sturdy that would be. This mailbox is very well built and kinda heavy, so I think a bracket would make it easier and sturdier.

Probably not as they are more for hanging pictures, signs, etc. that lay tight/flat against the siding.

Depends on the shape of "something" if it is rectangular, it may not as this box has 2 big indentations that could get in the way.

Well, if you think about it, the force against your siding would be the same as it would without using the attachment. The attachment only would distribute the same force horizontally (further apart, less concentrated).

I believe these are intended for hanging flower pots and baskets. Off hand I say they'll hold any flower container you are able to lift up to hang on them.

Ummm, i guess it would depend on the weight of the box. I wouldnt put anything up there because its not reinforced in the middle.

They would hold the plywood. I don't know how you could anchor the plywood down so that it wouldn't move if you bump it.

The brackets were screwed into the house under the window sill where we had decided to hang it. The flower box then sits down on the brackets. Brackets stay attached. Later the box can be lifted up and out to add new dirt or in my case, brought down to my level, for new flowers. Lifted back up and placed on the brackets. Hope that helps.
