What type of mounting bracket is needed? I have a round pole which uses a 2-piece bracket (4 screws) to the underside of a rural plastic box.

I had to use the adaptor plate to attach it to a wooden post. So my guess is that it is made for a standard metal post. I'd take a pic, but everything is hidden, now. Great mailbox though. Had it two years of hard PA weather and it looks brand new. Roomy, secure, and dry. We got it for the rear access at our fence line, but it just happens to be drop dead gorgeous.

This is a heavy mailbox, you better check the weight. I would recommend the square pole to hold up the mailbox which comes with the plate to support the mailbox. Installation was very easy with the ones that are made for this mailbox.

This mailbox is only mountable on a 4" x 4" wooden post with an adaptor plate attached to the wooden post which is sold separately on Amazon.

If you are purchasing a new unit, a mounting bracket is included, and it really is simple to install. If you want to see I can email you a picture of the included bracket as shown in the manual. Mt email is lleparski@gmail.com

You will need a stand. Mine is installed through a hole in a round patio table and the pole sits in a stand on the floor.Hope this helps.

you will need a factory rack or bracket. Then mount the bracket that comes with the box to the factory mount.

There is no provision made for this, no brackets or holes, etc. However, I did mount mine on hooks, just sort of hung it up on them on the tubular part of the base. The hooks are those screw-in types used for hanging up garden tools, etc. If you wanted to get fancy you could make a swiveling base, attach that to the wall and then the reel to the base.

I mounted mine to an octagon box. Anyone at Home Depot could help you out with this.

I made a modification when in installing the one I purchased. Got a round wooden pole from Home depot , and placed it in front of the spindles worked out fine.

This is not for a 4x4 post...either square or round........its for a metal pole or a wood pole like you would use in your closet. Either square or round will work as long as the pole is under about 2 "It really keeps the nest safe. ..from everything

I used a standard clamp with the v end for pole mounting and mounted the clamp vertical. shoot me an e-mail address and I can send you a picture of the clamps mounting the lights,zeke daguv808@gmail.com

We mounted ours on the old satellite mount, which is a little bit bigger than a rake handle. The bolts and screws that you use to mount it are also adjustable so you could likely get away with a bigger or smaller pole, no problem.

Just checked my mount and it should hold a 2 inch diameter pole but not bigger than 2 inches. Remember that the diameter is the width. I have not sean a pole that is more than 2 inches in diameter.

The mounting bracket is 4" tall and 2" wide, flat, and mounts with two wood screws. I have mine on a 4x4 post, centered, and it is solid. If you mount on metal I'd suggest drilling through-holes and bolting the bracket on with #12 or #10 screws and appropriate nuts and washers.

The only hardware included should be for the fixture to the small mounting pole that is in the box. The rest is all you. I had extra lags for pole to pole mounting but, did not need. Check your bolting pack for extra lags or bolts, that will be what is used for a pole or building mount. If you find nothing extra you can use,,you will have to get that from the hardware store.

Mounting bracket is adjustable, however, I used a regular cyclone fence post to mount mine and bought post from Home Depot.

I used standard aluminum cyclone fence pipe that I bought at Lowes, however, bracket is adjustable so1 and 1/2 - 2 " pipe will suffice.

If you are inventive then I think you can make it work but its default is to mount over a 4x4 post. One person already suggested drilling through the pipe and bolting it in and I think that would work. Personally, I don't know your specifics, but I might try to strap a 2x4 to your pole and mount the mailbox to it or something along those lines.
