Every post office has different regulations regarding installation of your mailbox. You should contact your local post office to find out what the specifications are for your neighborhood. The height and distance regulations may vary from town to town. Mail carriers can refuse delivery if the mailbox opening is too short, tall, or too far away. Some areas may not approve of added locking inserts if the mail slot cannot accommodate enough incoming mail.
A ground mount post is a longer post that is installed by partially burying it in the ground. A stand post is shorter and has a flat base so that it can be bolted to a cement surface.
Mailboxes are for postal delivery and most often have a space for your outgoing mail. Drop boxes are for incoming items only and are not marked “U.S. MAIL”. Drop boxes are perfect for use as a secure payment drop box, book drop, or a night drop box. Shop through our drop boxes and collection boxes to find the perfect solution for you.
We carry replacement parts for the items we carry. You will need to call to place your order as we do not offer parts on our website.
The first thing to determine is who is distributing mail to your mailboxes. Will the post office be distributing the mail directly to the boxes or will someone within the building be in charge of distributing the mail? Second, are you looking for mailboxes that will be installed into a wall or do you need mailboxes with a pedestal? Finally, how many total tenant doors do you need? By answering these three questions you can save yourself hours of searching through items that don’t fit your needs. As always our mailbox specialists are available to assist you and answer any additional questions you may have.
Understanding mailboxes and making sure you haven’t overlooked anything is hard. Let our mailbox specialists help you out. We can help you determine the mailboxes that will best suit your needs and will be happy to provide a full price quote and dimensions.
Postal: Mailboxes or collection boxes that are for postal use are prepped for the Postal Master Lock. This lock is only available to Post Office and allows your mail carrier to collect or distribute mail. Multi-tenant mailboxes that require a USPS Postal Master Lock have a master door that allows your mail carrier to open one main door of the mailbox and distribute the mail to all your tenants at one time. Collection boxes that use a USPS Postal Master lock have a slot for you to drop off your outgoing mail for your mail carrier to pick up later.
Private: Mailboxes that have a private lock can only be accessed by the owner of the box. Multi-tenant mailboxes for private distribution are most often used in offices or universities when the post office is not going to be accessing the mailboxes directly.
In October 2006 USPS standard mailbox regulations for multi-tenant mailboxes were changed and must meet the security and configuration requirements of USPS STD-4C regulations. Some mailboxes that are 4B+ compliant may be considered USPS approved if they are replacing existing mailboxes in an existing wall opening that will not be disturbed or changed during renovations. We recommend getting postal approval for any 4B+ compliant mailboxes before placing your order.
When products are for USPS access, contact your local post office regarding local approval and installation requirements before purchasing any mailbox product. Mailboxes such as the USPS 4CSTD Horizontal Mailboxes and the CBU Pedestal Mailboxes meet current postal specifications regarding security and configurations. Other mailboxes that are 4B+ compliant may be used for postal distribution pending approval from your local post office.
The Postal Master Lock is only available to the post office. You will need to contact your local post office regarding installation of the master lock in your new mailbox.
We do carry replacement parts for the items we carry. You will need to call to place your order as we do not offer parts on our website.
