Does the existing hardware work to afix this box to a typical black iron fence or gate?

Not really. We mounted it on top of a 4"x4" post. The hidden mounting (to keep thieves from stealing the whole box) is on the bottom, which is flat.

Sorry, not sure I know the answer to your question. I purchased the mail box and matching post made by the same company. It has been too long since I installed everything to recall had the base mounted to the post.

Only if the fence already has a feature meant to mount mail boxes of this type. Otherwise you will have to get creative.

Probably not. It needs a very solid post underneath and the hardware that comes with it is for that exact purpose. We have ours mounted to a 4 x 4 inch piece of wood installed in cement. We really like it for lots of reasons, but you would have to buy different hardware to attach it to a gate or fence, and you might not be equally happy with the result

With proper installation, absolutely not. The fence is very tight when everything is latched together.

I ended up using a gate I bought from home depot. I just used some screws to install it and was cheap and easy.

Nope. Get a hole saw and bore it out to standard deadbolt size. Most deadbolts soldhave a template included with instructions.

Yes you can hard wire the key pad to your gate control board. This link will take you to the Mighty Mule web site. look for accessories, Key pad, install instructions. Hope this helps. http://www.mightymule.com/gate-opener-accessories/

In my case I have digged it. Could not tell you if it is the same to attach it to an existing fence. Good luck.

My Vega Fence came with all hardware. I stripped all of my existing fence off and installed the Vega. It was a dramatic improvement on my existing Craftsman saw fence.

It's a pretty generic setup. It should work with any type of gate that you screw into the wall. The product is basically a piece of wood you screw into the plastic clamps, then you screw your gate into the wood.

No, I do not think it will work. Ours is on a very very slight angle because we did not use a level when installing and it has some slack in the gate mesh making it not as tight across. Still works but it is frustrating when trying to latch and unlatch.

Get 2 black rubber bungy cords and attach them to the gate and a side rail or hole to keep from breaking the gate pins and stabilize the gate.

I would not see why not, if you measure correctly. Just decide if your going to go by the black box or the metal.

Not that I know of nor can see how it could be done...see how long the gate will expand from the manufacturer description. There is a range of expansion.

With the exception of the actual tools, the box contains everything needed to "build" the size gate needed and hang it. The gate does NOT come put together...since it is adjustable the consumer needs to build the gate according to their width requirements.

As designed, yes. But I used a pair of (about) 6"x30" x 3/4" boards, put the screw eyes in them, hooked one to each end and made the gate stand-alone. Wider boards would add stability. This approach won't work as a strong barrier, but does discourage my min schnauzers from entering restricted rooms :)

Yes, we had everything we needed to install it. Works well as an outside doggy gate at the top of our deck steps. Have to be very careful opening or the bottom pin pops out if the bracket on hinge side. The pin should have been longer. It works but we don't open it often.

My husband said he'd omit the pin and replace it with a nut and bolt. We have not had anyone do this to our gate, yet! Good luck!
