Mounting Your Mailbox
We recommend that you order a matching post (option is below) so you have a post that can support the mailbox and a mounting kit to go with it (mounting kit is included with post). There are pre-drilled holes on the steel posts that makes for easy installation.
If you choose not to order the matching post with mounting kit, the best way to mount a Fort Knox mailbox is to use either carriage bolts or lag screws, and place them through the existing holes in the mailbox and then screw to a 4" x 4" or 6" x 6" wood or steel post or strong horizontal board.
