Gibraltar Mailboxes Patriot Large Capacity Rust-Proof Plastic Black, Post-Mount Mailbox, GMB515B01

Easy to install. Can now see if we have mail from our house. Durable. Love it!

2 YEAR UPDATE: The mailbox has held up beautifully! The neon yellow sticker for the delivery market fell off a while ago, but other than that, it has held up flawlessly. The extra space inside has also been wonderful, as larger packages can be left there and not on the porch, exposed. Still five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ —— My neighborhood has matching iron mailbox posts with the street number hanging above the box. When someone came through the neighborhood bashing mailboxes, ours would no longer close, soaking our mail on rainy days. I needed a replacement that was not any taller than our existing boxes (so it wouldn’t interfere with the number marker). This box fit the bill with the added benefit of being wider to allow for wider packages. Installation was easy, though I did need to drill two holes 1/2” off from the original mounting holes. Overall, I’m very pleased.

A pleasure to get such an easy to install product. The sturdy and BEAUTIFUL cedar post mounts easily onto a steel stake that you drive into the ground. Took less than 15 minutes with a Makita portable drill to drive (supplied) deck-screws into the post platform and secure the mailbox to the platform. Instructions were among the most clearly written and easily followed I've ever encountered. The mailbox itself is LARGER than most similar items: allows mail route person to just drop items inside rather than having to walk to my front porch. Also, it is composed of durable, water-tight /weatherproof plastic. I highly recommend the box itself. It's also reasonably priced. That is a bonus, but I would not have complained if it cost 2X what I paid.

I like this mailbox overall - the large size of this box and the "mail has been delivered flag" are nice features. One thing I found mildly annoying is the fact that you have to buy a separate mounting kit if you want to mount it properly to a standard 4" x 4" post as there is only one drilled hole on each side of the base that would fit on a 4" x 4" post - it would have been easy to add another hole 1 1/2 inches apart so that you could mount it directly to a 4 x 4 without the need for an adapter - that is in fact what I did - I drilled my own additional holes - one on each side so that the box now has two screws on each side into the 4 x 4 which anchors it solidly and prevents any back to front rocking which happens with only one screw on each side. Other than this issue the box seems to be very decent for the price.

Nice mailbox

Upgraded the posts and mailboxes at our condo association. These mailboxes are large enough for a magazine to lay flat, for many sizes of packages to fit without having to jam them in, and still have room. And the little yellow flag on the side pops up when the mailperson opens the box to put mail inside so you don’t have to guess whether your mail has been delivered yet. Made from thick plastic for strength, color will not fade. Easy to attach to post of your choice.

This box is the same as the old Rubbermaid mailbox. This one was to replace an older one clobbered by a snowplow. These are the most durable mailboxes I have found. Mine is mounted on a Minnesota DOT style mailbox swing away stand (look it up). They usually last me 10+ years of Minnesota climate and assault by overwide farm implements, snowplows, 40 below temperatures in the winter, and 90+ temperatures in the summer. These are way better than any other box I've tried, metal or plastic. They are also wide enough for a magazine or large envelope to lay flat. They have a nice little paddle on the side that goes up and stays up when the door is opened, handy to know the mailman has gone by. There is no provision to lock the box, but I don't need that here. The box will sun fade after a few years. It doesn't affect how it works but could be cleaned up with some paint. Number stickers will stick to it if you clean off the sides with alcohol first.

Now she doesn’t have to get out of the truck to deliver my packages as often! My mailbox arrived in good condition. Installation was relatively easy other than it not fitting the stand that I already have. I drilled a couple holes to match the old stand’s holes, and that worked out great. Being a relatively non-brittle plastic, drilling was easy. The instructions say to put the delivery indicator flag on the one side of the mailbox, but I discovered I can’t see it from the house on that side and wanted to swap it to the other. To do that I had to remove the hinges themselves and switch them because I couldn’t get the hinge caps off again. A little more extra work, but it went fine. The only negative with the product itself so far is the yellow color on the delivery notification flag’s stickers is peeling off. The stickers are still stuck, but there are areas without color on them, now. It doesn’t affect their ability to work, just looks bad. A flag molded in different colored plastic would have been better, maybe.

Parfait, tout en plastique, ne craint donc vraiment pas la rouille. Seul problème, le support adapté n'est pas dispo en France.

Lieferung hat ca 1,5 Wochen gedauert und ist in Deutschland problemlos und ohne Zwischenfall durch den Zoll gegangen. Paket kam super bei mir an und ich habe es direkt ausgepackt 🙈 Ich war anfangs sehr erschrocken wie groß er wirklich ist. Dies hat sich aber bereits nach kurzem Einsatz als sehr praktisch erwiesen. Nun muss der Postbote nicht mehr für jedes kleine Päckchen ca 250 m zu unserem Haus laufen, sondern kann es direkt in den Kasten schmeißen. Ausserdem ist er absolut wasserdicht und die Post bleibt garantiert auch trocken. Ausserdem ist er extrem stabil. Eine Montageplatte habe ich mir selber aus Siebdruckplatten gebaut und dann auf einem 6,5 x 6,5 cm Pfahl geschraubt. Dann eine stabile Einschlaghülse mit Schnellbeton in den Boden gesetzt und anschließend den Briefkasten montiert. (Bilder folgen noch) Wer einen einzigartigen Briefkasten sucht ist hier auf jeden Fall richtig. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

es lo que esta descrito

I like the size of this mailbox, will be able to fit a small package. Very easy to install and appears to be withstanding our weather. Only complaint is that the door has to be pushed closed, or it can pop open

Producto excelente y de alta calidad lo recomiendo ampliamente ya que supera las expectativas de todos es de un tamaño excelente.
