Can you mount to a metal post with 4 bolts?

Depending on the post size and hole spacing you should be able to mount on a steel post. The top plate on the post should be a minimum 6" square.

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".

I didn't buy the metal post. I mounted this mailbox on an existing 4x4 wooden post for now.

yes it comes with 4 bolts for each plate but they are short and I didn't think they would withstand very much weight so I purchased 3.5 " bolts that I think would work better. The plates are very strong and of good quality metal.

Mine is mounted to a 4 X 4 inch post on our deck, the unit is mounted to the house. So, I don't any reason it cannot be attached to a post unless you have something unusual. It needs to be strong enough and the bracket should be bolted or lagged (a bolt type) to that post.

Do a search on amazon for arb lightbar bracket. It's a hundred bucks and mount well to the a post using existing bolts

Well, the description clearly states "Mounts easily to 4 x 4 post (not included)" so the answer would be "no".

Yes this mounting plate can be used on a 4x4 post. Vertical mounting plate and screw hole's from top to bottom are about 3 1/2" inche's apart.

It will not mount on a post un.ess you have some kind of hanging bracket that would screw o the post. It is designed with a metal hook on top that you hang from a tree or another hanger.

The posts have holes In them for 1/4 bolt usually supplied. You will need to crimp or solder a round connector for the wire.

yes I think so. maybe reverse the bolt when adding the 3rd piece. BTW it comes in 4 pieces.

Yes the post is included. You will need bolts or screws to secure it to what ever you are mounting it to.

It is in my son's Truck so I do not have access to it currently, it was a minimum of a 1/4 to 3/8 stud post.

No...cannot be used without post. Suggest 4x4 about 6 inches attach to railing. Mount to short post.

no. needs hang from the two bolts. You could drill back and add two more bolts.

It does not come with a mounting bracket. I built mine inside a stone pillar so I did not need one. It would be difficult to mount on a 4x4 post without the bracket.

I don't believe so. The bolts have a Torx head which requires a Torx driver, which is available at any tool or hardware store. You could also go to your local Ace Hardware and buy the 4 bolts. Hope that helps : )

Yes, but you will need longer screws. I have mine mounted on 4X4 fence post. I use stainless steel screws instead of the one that came with the pole. Good luck to you. YY

Yes you could as long as it has a bar like a pipe. It comes with 4 bolts and piece of metal plate with 4 holes.
