I would say yes . We have 2 holding a granite countertop forming the bar in our kitchen. Very sturdy

They are very strong so it would probably work but I would suggest using two!

They are very sturdy, We used them to hold up a granite counter at a Hotel.

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

I find it very sturdy. I think it will work and work well. But I don't think it was made to support all the weight.

It's probably sturdy enough, but it is kind of bulky. Check the dimensions before you make your decision.

Yes, you will need a standard mail box post to properly mount this box. I suggest Lowes or a similiar big box store (I found them to be the least expensive for standard type things like this.) Mounts easily with a few screws and has been working fine for us. I expect to get many years of good service from it.

It's very sturdy. It should work on any support that a normal box spring will work on.

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

There is a pole on the bottom that you would screw onto a post. I don't think it would last if you hung it from the top -- it's not very sturdy.

Yes it is fairly sturdy but I wouldn't put too much weight on it. You may damage the connecting door hinges to the unit.

I suppose you could with the right fasteners. The hangers on the back wall of the mailbox are just teardrop shaped slo for screw to go through and hold to wall.

Yes it should be sturdy enough. Pound the first pole piece into the ground as far as you can to increase stability. My birdhouse probably weighs the same as yours.

Yes - it mounts easily to the Mail Boss brand metal post with pre-drilled holes, but if using another post, use the provided plastic floor liner/installation template to see if the holes line up. If they don't line up you would just use an intermediary piece of wood approximately 4"-6" x 9"-12".

Yes, absolutely - otherwise it will be wobbly.It put mine up years ago and the post is still sturdy. The slow plow has taken out the cross arm and mailbox, but the post remains secure. I bought a second kit to get a new cross arm. The new post cover part is still in the box in my garage rafters, just in case.

I'm not sure but if you get them in correctly I don't see why it wouldn't hold a mailbox. I assume you will be using two for a mailbox so I don't think you should have any problem at all. They are actually heavier than I needed to hold up a star! Just be sure you have them in securely before attaching the mailbox. If it doesn't work you wouldn't have lost to much.

It is a bench, so it should hold weight, I am on the heavy side, so I wouldn't chance it, but then I didn't buy it for that, it is a storage for my crafts.

Hi Janie, a wood post will do just fine as long as it in good condition and the post is set in the ground properly.

If you have an electric drill, you could adapt it. I had to make some adjustments on my mail box, but once installed, it works fine. Saves me a lot of useless trips to the mailbox.
