Questions and Answers for Postal PRO Madison Mailbox and Post Kit, Black

A:  The opening of the Madison post sleeve is only large enough to slide over a 4x4 (3.5" x 3.5"). You would have to bury the entire steel drive-in post holder, so only wood is above ground, to make it work. Also, Keep in mind you need to have 18" of wood above ground.

A:  It would require some type of base to be mounted over in order to stand on its own. An "indoor" base could easily be constructed using a 2 ft x 2 ft piece of board attached to the bottom of a "4x4" wood post 26" or so in length (actual dimensions of "4x4" posts are 3 1/2"' x 3 1/2").

A:  It will not stand on its own. You would have to lean it or tie it to something for support.
