          Q:None of the holes in the post adapter that is sold with this mailbox match the separation of the holes in the mailbox. Has anybody actually figured out how to install this thing? Has anyone just made their own adapter out of wood?

          A:  Hello, our Mailboxes are made to be installed on a Salsbury post. If you are installing this mailbox on a Salsbury post for a 4850 mailbox you will not need an adapter. I hope this information was helpful. Thank you.

            Q:I already have a similar mailbox. Will this fit standard adapter, or must I also get the adapter? When I installed my old mailbox, the holes were a match to the ones in the existing post.

            A:  This item has (4) pre-drilled holes at the bottom so it will fit on many different types of posts, but you may have to retro fit your post or attach a plate/bracket of some sort to accommodate this mailbox. We hope this information is helpful. Thank you!

                Answer This Question

                A:  Yes, you could mount this to a wood post.

                by|May 5, 2017

                A:  Yes, but the mailbox does not come with mounting screws and bolts. You will have to furnish your own.

                by|Dec 22, 2018

                A:  Yes. I mounted a flat piece of wood to the post arm and attached the mailbox to it. Only because there is an indentation in the bottom of the mailbox and now it sits level on the post arm.
