Lexy Not a good idea attaching this to your front gate and I shouldn't have to tell you why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMama Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 I have seen boxes that are very deep, and have the slot on the outside of the gate and the box on the inside with a door that opens to retrieve the mail from inside the gate. I would suggest finding that kind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 Any iron place can make whatever you want AND they will WELD it to your iron gate. I would suggest exactly the kind that MtnMama and Xena have described. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexy Posted August 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 Thanks, all. What has been described is what I have in mind. From what I see in my neighborhood, I thought that was the only kind. Just have have to find the right place. Lexy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 I have always had a regular mail box on the outside of my gate. It worked fine-no problems except some kids put a snake in it once. It was attached securely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
