Gibraltar Black Metal Post-Mount Mailbox – Standard Outdoor Curbside Mailbox, Elite Series

Gibraltar Elite Black Mailbox — Standard Post Mount Residential Mailbox

The Gibraltar Elite Metal Standard Mailbox is a reliable curbside mailbox designed for residential post-mount installation. Part of Gibraltar's Elite series, this black mailbox suits homeowners seeking a clean, contemporary look at an accessible price point. With a standard capacity of 800 cu. in. (rated 401–999 cu. in.), it handles daily letter and flat mail delivery without issue. It is sold as a mailbox only and requires a separate base and post for installation.

Metal Mailbox Construction and Steel-Painted Finish

This Gibraltar mailbox is constructed from metal with a steel-painted finish in a solid black color. The single-wall build keeps the overall weight at just 4.6 lbs, making it easy to handle during installation. The contemporary style pairs well with a wide range of home exteriors, from modern farmhouse to traditional suburban designs. The painted black finish provides a uniform appearance suited to both wood and metal mailbox posts.

Outgoing Mail Flag and Door Access Features

The Gibraltar Elite mailbox includes a red outgoing mail flag visible on the exterior, allowing carriers to identify when outgoing mail is present — a standard feature on rural and curbside post-mount mailboxes. The unit has a single front door for mail access and does not include front and rear doors, a newspaper slot, or a lock. Assembly is not required and no address numbers are included. This straightforward design keeps the mailbox easy to use right out of the box.

Installing a Post Mount Mailbox — Dimensions and Base Compatibility

The Gibraltar Elite Standard Mailbox is designed exclusively for post-mount installation and requires a base, which is not included. Mounting hardware is also not included, so appropriate fasteners should be sourced separately. The mailbox measures 20.1 inches deep, 6.9 inches wide, and 8.9 inches tall, making it compatible with standard 4x4 mailbox posts and most universal mailbox mounting bases. No assembly is required once a compatible base and post are in place, simplifying the overall installation process.
