Townhouse Wall Mount

I am extremely pleased with my new Mail Boss 7172 Townhouse Locking Security Wall Mount Mailbox! It's an awesome mailbox, built with durability in mind, featuring a sturdy construction and a remarkably high mail capacity. The mailbox fit perfectly on the wall of our front porch, and the installation process was incredibly easy, thanks to the included bracket. The metal is impressively thick, which gives me confidence in its long-term reliability. I am already anticipating many years of reliable service from this Mail Boss mailbox and would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a secure and well-made mailbox solution.

We were looking for three things out of a mailbox: a large area for outgoing mail, very good capacity for incoming items, and at least the appearance of being difficult to get open. I was concerned about the outgoing mail area's size, so I called the MailBoss. They said it could hold ten or so letters, but this can hold at least double that. Not only that, but the outgoing mail is fully enclosed so we do not have to worry about it getting rained on or blown away. The red flag indicator is just attached to the side with double sided tape, but it appears to be durable tape and the mechanism works well. I am a landlord and receive rent at the house. We have a great through the door lockbox http://www.amazon.com/Protex-Through-The-Door-Locking-Drop-WSS-159/dp/B003E1ZUP2/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1397656453&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=through+the+door+lock+box that works like a book depository. You open it up put your rent in and then close it which causes the rent to drop into the lockbox. For whatever reason, my tenants cannot figure it out, so we needed to be able to receive rent in our mailbox. Our old mailbox's first fail point was size. It could easily fill up, pushing any collected rent up by the opening and where it could be easily stolen. Also, we wanted something that would work if we were gone for a few days. The Townhouse provides plenty of inbound capacity. There is room for several days of mail, including magazines and rent checks without worry about it hitting the top. We have never had an issue with anyone stealing our mail or rent, but I did not want something that looked like an easy target. Also, even many locking mailboxes are mounted on the wall by just sitting down on two nails. You could just lift the mailbox off and carry it away without any effort at all. That is not the case with the Mail Boss Townhouse. You securely screw it to the wall - its mounting hardware is heavy duty stuff. The mailbox itself is heavy duty steel and will not give your mail up without a real battle. This Mail Boss Townhouse met all of our needs while being decent looking. It is so much better made than any mailbox in the same price range. I am very happy with the value I received and I paid about 15% more than its current price.

This is a great mailbox. It's very sturdy and was easy enough to attach to the brick exterior if my office. The lock is very secure and the box has substantial capacity for a large volume of mail as well as larger envelopes. It comes with three keys and more are able to be obtained by providing the specific number on the keys. It also looks very nice and unobtrusive and comes with a generous amount of adhesive stickers for adding an address number. This is not for everyone, but we have perhaps had more fun than would be typical in my woman-owned business referring to this mailbox as "the only mail (male) boss that will ever work here."

It was safely packed in a Prime box, and its own box, cradled in styrofoam. And because of that, I trust that even if it were accidentally dropped by the mail person, it wont get all dented. It is made sturdy as heck. The bronze is good looking. It is hefty though. I wouldn't lie if it took mighty muscles to tackle the installation. Yes, instructions were clear and easy to follow. And no, installing the box wasn't a breeze. If you're hesitant, just have a handy person do it for you. There are holes below which is an option for those who prefer to put the mailbox on top of a metal post. Also sold by the seller. To each his or her own preference. Since it was hooked on the wood siding and not the brick wall where the old mailbox was, when mail is dropped in, the lid makes this loud clunky sound, loud enough to be heard while indoors. But that's okay since that's the whole purpose. I want to know when mail has been delivered. I'm not saying that in a negative way. The size can accommodate 2, maybe up to 2 & 1/2 weeks of regular sized letters, postcards, including an estimate of 5 catalogs or magazines, tops. So, this mailbox size is perfect for the wanderlust at heart. Just have a family member or trusted friend to retrieve your mail once a week while you're gone.

It has been my pleasure to use this sturdy mail compartment for approximately two months. It will conceal outgoing mail keeping it dry, and alert postman with plastic adhesive red flag. Was easy for my son to install. It’s large enough that I don’t have to get mail daily, wait a week or more. It holds ballots, advertisements, small packages as well as letters. Three keys Included with smooth operation of opening. It would be very difficult for anyone to retrieve mail from the slot angle if they wanted to steal it yet easy for the post to deliver. Well-made should last for years. I am very impressed. Thank you for this sturdy mail box.

This thing is heavy duty. The lock is smooth to operate. It will hold a ton of mail if you're away for a bit. I'd guess a least a week of mail. Three keys included. The white is very nice.

Great looking. Sturdy.

Very high quality mail box it is well worth the money, I would recommend this mail box if you need security and large capacity.

Seit ein paar Wochen hängt der Briefkasten an unserer Hauswand und macht einen robusten Eindruck. Das Gehäuse ist aus schwerem Stahl, die Oberfläche sauber pulverbeschichtet und unempfindlich gegen Fingerabdrücke. Die Tür sitzt gerade, schließt satt und das Schloss läuft leichtgängig - drei Schlüssel waren dabei. Der Einwurf ist groß genug für große Umschläge, Zeitungen und Magazine, innen bleibt alles trocken und nichts klemmt. Ich habe mich ganz bewusst für dieses Modell entschieden, weil viele Briefkästen in Deutschland optisch sehr ähnlich sind. Dieser hier fällt durch seine Form ein bisschen mehr auf, bleibt dabei aber angenehm schlicht. Das matte Schwarz passt gut an die Fassade, keine überflüssigen Schnörkel - genau die Mischung aus unauffällig und trotzdem besonders, die ich gesucht habe. Die kleine Flagge für abzuholende Post ist eher ein US-Ding und spielt hier keine Rolle. Die Anbringung ist optional, ich habe sie weggelassen. Ein Punkt, der mir aufgefallen ist: Das kleine Dach oben hatte sich bei mir leicht gelöst. Dabei war zu sehen, dass es mit doppelseitigem Klebeband befestigt ist. Einmal kräftig wieder angedrückt und seitdem keine Probleme. Wer auf Nummer sicher gehen will, gibt einen winzigen Tropfen Alleskleber dazu und hat Ruhe.

Recomendable producto, entrega rápida, buenos materiales, buen terminado, cumple con todo lo esperado (diseño, calidad, amplitud tanto en ranura como el depósito mismo), trae lo necesario y lo instalé en pared. Sólo que se le cayó prácticamente sola la lámina que adorna la parte superior, la fijé nuevamente sin mayor problema.

We purchased this mailbox a few months ago because we rebuilt our porch and couldn’t find a mail slot to go through a steel door. Even though we live in a very safe neighbourhood, some of the neighbours told us their mail was being stolen so we wanted a locking mailbox. This “townhouse” mailbox is very solid and seems to be better made than the lighter weight ones we found in the big box stores. It is large enough for a magazine. The lock seems good quality as well. We left off the silly plastic flag and house numbers that came with it. Our house is a 150 year old Victorian and the style of this fits nicely! We’ll see how it holds up to our Canadian winters or hot summers but so far it still looks and works great! It was a little tricky for our contractor to install and we put in extra supports in the wooden wall because it is heavy. But the end result is beautiful.

GREAT SOLID MAIL BOX It is heavy and sturdy so I used more fasteners to secure it to the wall, my mail and documents will be under lock & key now. I recommend this product !

This mailbox is roomy and very sturdy. The instructions were very clear which made it easy to install. The lock feature and covered slot provide great security. Hoping this product will last for years to come.
