YES I looked for the post I bought but could not find it. The "Solar Group AP00BZ01" is close to what I got. Mine is Bronze BUT looks BLACK. I made a plate out of plywood that fits into the botton of the box just to make mounting more secure. I WOULD cement in the pole. At first the box wiggled some. I went in and tighten all the screws again. That did the trick. It is Very solid. This cover is enjection molded in other words plastic. It looks as good as medal and I thinl it will last

The mailbox is exceptional quality with high quality steel and strength but the post does not begin to match the strength of the box. I would get a 4x4 post from a local welding shop while you get the custom bracket made. And have them powder coated to match the box

Yes it will attach to a regular box, but I would not recommend this fixture. It is actually very small. The picture looks bigger but the fixture is really small.

Yes if you have a post type it will work they have two types one square and the other post.

I believe it will. The length and height are no problem. My mail box width is 8 inches but the mounting platform that the mail box screws into is expandable widthwise.

Shouldn't be a problem. There are two wood screws, one at the top and one at the bottom. Easily installed this on my mailbox post.

Yes! This is the very reason I bought this. Older type of construction with metal flag and the upper and lower metal latch. Nothing cheap about this mailbox!

It will if the post is set in cement. If not I would recommend putting it in cement as the top is heavy. But it is a great save mailbox.

You can purchase a fence mount adapter here: Fence Mount Mailbox Mounting BracketIt adapts almost any wall mailbox so it will fit on a fence.

I installed the same mailbox last year. It will not fit the post you have. Your local lowes or home depot sales the kit that fix it perfect. Just pour a little concrete in the bottom of the hole once the post is in place.

A 4x4 would fit in the lower portion of the post but not the upper portion. Even if the upper portion was wide enough the bolts used to secure the mailbox protrude into the interior of the post and would block the 4x4. You will need to remove the post from your current mailbox.

Hi - My answer is probably not. I had a standard cheapo mailbox for several years and it seems that the Architectural mailbox is wider and longer. I'd have to look at the specs for both but the mailman can now stick small boxes and packages in the mailbox where before, he couldn't. If it's possible to tear down the existing brick enclosure and rebuild to this mailbox, I'd recommend doing so; this is an excellent mailbox.

This particular mailbox can only be mounted on a 4" x 4" wood post using the post adapter plate made for this mailbox. Amazon sells a universal adapter plate which can be used to attach the 4x4 post to the mailbox. Really easy to install using wood screws. Also, very sturdy.

Yes, that's how i mounted mine on. Too lazy to build a new one using the metal post. I just want to deter casual thieves from tealing my mail. Hope this helps

It does not have the openings for the posts. I am using it like that though it just creates a loop around the post. I suggest you look for the right model.

There is a small amout on the lower back that is not covered. My post is green and I think it looks fine but you could paint the exposed post to match. I can not imagine anyone wouldn't be happy with this mailbox. My husband installed the mailbox and must of been easy because he didn't complain.

Yes, you need to purchase a mounting bracket with this mailbox. I see that Amazon sells one but at the time I don;t recall seeing one and I purchased one from Sears Hardware. I imagine with super long screws you could secure it to a post but it would not be stable or hold up over time. I would imagine it would eventually fall off and that's only if you could secure it in the first place. Buy the mounting bracket.
