Questions & Answers

What would you use to insert inside the pole to mount in an environment that freezes? I do not see an inside diameter measurement on the pole.

Answer This Question

Thank you for your interest in our products. For a 3" outside diameter post,the approximate inside diameter is about 2.92 inches. When installing in areas that experience freezing temperatures, you can consider inserting a solid core insert like PVC inside the steel post for added stability. Additionally, to help prevent frost heave, it’s important to: Set the post in concrete below the frost line Ensure proper drainage at the base (such as adding gravel)

        My mailbox post was getting bent from our mail driver reaching out to grab the mailbox lid before even coming to a stop. I had to get a better mailbox post and wanted something heavy duty that wasnt going to bend again. The old post was a flat type post with two 1 inch square tube uprights with decorative metal swirls between them. I needed toughness, so a round post filled with concrete should so the trick! This mailbox post has a 3 inch round tube center. Again, perfect for filling with concrete and rebar. The post does come in 2 pieces and has to be screwed together. Holes for attaching the 2 pieces were a bit off, so I had to just barely start the sheet metal type screws until they were all in and then tighten them. Keeping the post halves laying flat on the ground while doing this is a must, since it can come out crooked if you dont. The top plate to which the box attaches to the post is held in with nuts and bolts. You must look carefully as the holes don't appear to line up at first, but if you rotate the top around the post, you will find a spot where they all align. Why they made them different heights I dont know. It is hard to get inside the post with an adjustable wrench that the instructions specify you can use. I had to switch to regular wrenches. The decorative covers are plastic, and the bottom wraps around the pole and secures with 4 screws while the top simply slides up and snaps into place. The snaps on mine weren't as secure as I would like but ill try to remedy that somehow, maybe with a small screw through the back into the post. The bottom was a snug fit, but can be slid up for weedeating so it doesn't get beaten up. I'll get it installed tomorrow and filled with cement and see how it holds up. If there are any issues later I'll update my review, but so far it looks like it will be just what I needed.

        The Elevado Mailbox Post by Architectural Mailboxes looks elegant. It all comes individually bagged and separated, the instructions are easy to understand and it does not take long to do so. It comes with all the hardware and the tools necessary are just a flat screwdriver, a Philips screw driver and two wrenches size 10mm. The post can hold up to 50 pounds so that is plenty and since it is galvanized it will not get rusted easy. The first 3 screws did take some strength to put into place; beside these the rest was easier. It is sturdy and nicely designed making the mailbox post more appealing and classy. Overall it is a nice upgrade for a classy curb appeal.

        This mailbox post comes totally disassembled but with all the hardware needed. The mailbox is not included. The round metal post is in two pieces that are assembled with three 10mm hex head screws. The screw holes are predrilled but did not align properly. The plate for the mailbox attaches with 4 small bolts. The paint finish looks good but seems to scratch easily. The decorative parts at the top and bottom are plastic. The bottom post cover slides up so you can trim around the post without tearing up the plastic. The top plastic cover is supposed to snap securely to the box mounting plate but the rear snaps refused to engage. The post is not as sturdy as I would like for a heavy mailbox due to the two piece design. This unit does not mount on a 4x4 post as most others. You need to sink the metal post in the ground about 18" and secure it with concrete. Overall quality is just average and security is compromised with the 2 piece post design.

        This product is not your standard mailbox post, it is a lovely decorative mailbox post with a classy elegance, which looks really sharp in the color black.  The post arrives in two pieces, each strong metal, galvanized steel, each 27" long; one fits into the other; the bottom of the lower section goes in the ground which allows you to determine height.  The decorative plastic cover that goes near the bottom of the post is made of heavy plastic, arrives into two pieces that interlock to add a nice touch to the bottom of the post; these are adjustable in height, not tied to the post itself, instead, they will rest on the ground.  The upper section that provides support for the platform that holds the mailbox is also made of plastic; the platform that sits above it/supports the mailbox , is heavy duty metal, nice and solid, black enamel finish, with a 3" hole going through it the size of the pole; this is where you secure screws to hold the pole in place.   It is easy to assemble, should be complete in 5 minutes or less.  I also don't think it could not be any easier to install. The pole supports up to 50 lbs. Hardware is included.  It has a 100% satisfaction guarantee, also a LIFETIME structural warranty.  The mailbox itself is not included.  I really love it's looks, also the black color, which again, looks really sharp.  My home has black shutters, as do a lot of homes, so it also matches my house, adds curb appeal, in my opinion.  I also expect it to last, probably a lot longer than a wooden post which will eventually rot.  I have no regrets, am very pleased with this product! I think it will be a great compliment to my home...

        Heavy metal (mostly) mailbox post. Post comes in 2pieces and went together easily I used my racket wrench instead of wrenches. The seat has a base of metal and a cover that is plastic which slides up and covers the base. The decorative column is 2 pieces of plastic that screw together. This post looks very nice and because of its neutral color, would go well with most colors. I like that the decorative column slides up to make trimming underneath a breeze.

        The Elevado Decorative in ground post in a rubbed oil rubbed bronze finish by Architectural Mailboxes. We chose this item because we wanted something more earth tone but not over the top in looks. It really was not that hard to assemble and get in the ground . We ended up buying a new mailbox to match the post and also a 50 lb. bag of Sakrete quickset concrete mix. It was as digging the hole about 20 inches into the ground where we wanted to place it. Then pour the quickset into the hole around the post and add water. Wait until the bottom part was dry or secure,then put together the rest of the pole. Add the mailbox and numbers,and it's a done deal. It looks really nice but again not to over the top. The pole itself is made of alloy that will not rust and will hold up to 50 Ibs. Only problem I had was with the small screws in the bottom part getting them to draw the two abs pieces together tight for a nice finished look....ended up using different screws.

        This mailbox post is nice but I did not think the outside decorative pieces would be made out of plastic. The inside posts are metal and the top plate is metal but the bottom outside is plastic. It seems easy enough to assemble. We will have to see if it is able to stay in ground without tipping over. But right now I have to wait to do that. Ground is too cold for concrete. I am going to put concrete in the hole for support. I love the rubbed bronze color and it has a nice design.

        Very nice design and easy to put together. You’ll need concrete before installation. The instructions are easy to follow. The pole and top plate where the mailbox sits on is metal but the plate holder and the design piece that looks like a skirt around it it’s made of plastic; very sturdy plastic. The entire mailbox is well made and looks like it will hold up well in extreme weather.

        Awesome quality, good-looking, and easy installation. My new Architectural Mailboxes Elevado Decorative In-Ground Post in Rubbed Bronze is the perfect post for my new mailbox (that I purchased separately.) I like the rubbed bronze because it’s a nice upgrade from my old wooden post. I dug a hole about twelve inches deep and used wet concrete to secure the post. I let it set-up for a couple of hours and went back and installed a mailbox. All hardware and instructions are included with this in-ground post. The plastic skirt at the bottom really finished the look of this classy mailbox post. I am very pleased with this purchase.

        Super sturdy and attractive mail box post! The package included a variety of hardware options for attaching your existing box to this post successfully. The metal post is very strong and easy to screw together (heads up: match up all three screw holes before you start connecting them so you won’t have to undo/redo work). The metal mounting plate for your mail box on has four screws to attach it to the post, so it’s very strong and stable - this should be great for long term use (my old post had only two screws attaching the plate and was always falling; that is part of why I was replacing it with this one). Before putting this in the ground I added some painters tape to mark where the height for USPS standards was. Then I added about 6 inches of gravel to the hole and used a mallet to get the post braced and level. Although I know pros would frame with wood, I worked with what I had and built a frame for the concrete by cutting up the sturdy cardboard box the post came in. Seemed sufficiently stable enough to hold the concrete while it dried for this project. :) Adding the artisanal plastic pieces was very simple to finish it off after waiting for the concrete to set. Nice upgrade from my one, and looks great on the curb.
