DOUBLE MOUNT POST POSITION GUIDELINES
Post Installation:
Customers are required to contact the local post office before installing the mailbox to ensure the correct
placement and height. The post hole should usually be located to adhere to the following guidelines
(please see diagram). The mailbox floor generally should be 40-44 inches from the road surface and front
face of the mailbox is generally 6-8 inches from front face of curb or road edge.
A. Double Post – In this configuration the hole will generally be 16”-18” from face of post to street.
Once the desired post spot is determined, dig a 12” diameter hole to the depth needed. The depth
of the hole will depend on your desired height of mailbox. Place the post into the hole with
threaded holes on the post facing the sides you intend to mount the mailboxes on. The top of the
post is the end that the holes on the post are closest to. Use a spirit level to set post to true vertical
position in the post hole. Be sure to align the face of the post with the driveway, sidewalk,
walkway, roadway, etc. Pour concrete completely around the post, taking care to maintain the
level of the post. Cover concrete with top soil if desired. If you are installing a Decorative Cuff
(accessory sold separately) please follow the instructions with the Cuff at this point. Once
completed, please continue with these instructions.

Attach one each of the Arm Clips to each side of the post (two screws per clip) using the two lower
centered holes on post sides. The slot on the Arm Clip should be on the bottom. DO NOT over
tighten. Now attach each Post Arm by sliding it over the Arm Clip, with the long side of the Post
Arm against the post. Push down firmly until the Post Arm is flush with the post. (Note: If the
Post Arm will not start over the top of the clip, you can use a pair of pliers to slightly bend the top
of the clip away from the post until the Post Arm fits over the Arm Clip in a snug manner.)
Now take a Mounting Plate and set it on top of one of the Post Arms, lining up the slots on the
bottom of the plate (center) with the holes on the Post Arm, and lining up the slots on the short
angle side with the two holes in the post. Take two of the Phillips screws and put them through
the Screw Cover Retainers and start them loosely into the post. Take two more Phillips screws
with fender washers and start them loosely into the Post Arm. Tighten all four screws securely
(DO NOT over-tighten). Put Screw Covers over the Screw Cover Retainers on the post. Repeat
this procedure for the other side.
Now attach the Finial to the top of the post. The square base of the Finial will press fit into the
open square top of the post. If desired, apply clear exterior silicone adhesive (available at your
local hardware store) to the inside walls of the post before inserting the Finial.
At this point, please follow the instructions included with your Janzer Mailboxes to attach the
mailboxes to the post.
