This large mailbox is perfect for households or businesses that receive frequent deliveries and need a secure and convenient way to receive them. Crafted from durable materials, this mailbox features a sleek and contemporary design that will enhance the curb appeal of your property. What really sets this mailbox apart is its innovative package delivery system. The bottom compartment of the mailbox is specifically designed to hold packages, with a secure locking mechanism on the back that keeps your deliveries safe and protected from the elements. Upgrade your home or business with our modern curbside mailbox, and make package deliveries a stress-free experience! We build and deliver this mailbox in clean raw dark gray hot rolled steel. Much like the grain in wood, this dark steel finish comes with a variety of heat marks from the raw steel cooling in the steel mill. Most people let this mailbox develop a handsome RUST patina over time. The final photo shows it at the tail end of this process when it has cured to an orange/brown patina. OPTIONS: Available in Steel + Brazilian Ipe or All-Steel (no wood). If you would like us to leave the Brazilian Ipe off so you can install your own wood, please contact us for more details and a custom quote. LOCKING: The Stratford has an option for a locking mailbox front door behind the main front door with a slot at the top for depositing mail. We also offer a non-locking option for this upper mail compartment. The lower compartment in the back where you retrieve packages will include a locking door & keys. If you choose non-locking, keys will be included for only the lower back compartment where you retrieve your packages. CUSTOM HOUSE NUMBERS: Please include your custom address numbers in the "Add your personalization" box. The numbers will be laser-cut into both sides (5 characters max). If you would like something more custom, feel free to shoot us a message. INSTALL: The Stratford mailbox will weigh between 245-375 lbs depending on your options and it will need to be anchored to concrete or a stone pad. Holes are provided in the bottom plate of the mailbox for anchoring. SHIPPING: Due to its weight and size, this item ships by freight carrier with residential delivery and lift gate service, which is included in the pricing. PLEASE BE AWARE that the freight carrier only offers curbside delivery and will not drive their truck onto your driveway or move the shipment to its desired location. If you require commercial delivery, please contact us prior to ordering. We also now offer a new RED flag option!
