Tools and Hardware Reviews of MailGuard 580M Security Mailbox, GreenCustomer Review: Good Design Summary: 5 StarsI had this installed on a 6"x6" P.T. post by a professional handyman. It is unusual-looking, but I am more interested in performance than looks. I live in a rural area where mailbox-bashing is a favorite sport, and I am hoping that since to take a swing at this mailbox would mean connecting with the post at nearly the same time, it won't be as much of a target. The mailbox holds a substantial amount of mail in the lower compartment, and will easily hold a few days' worth of my mail. I am happy to have the lock, although it could be forced open if someone were determined, it will deter a quick, casual mail thief. I had the handyman run a line of beige-colored caulk along the top and sides where the box meets the post, to prevent rainwater from running between. Since I used a 6"x6" post, I didn't need to have new holes drilled in the box, and would highly recommend this size. It also looks better than a 4"x6" would look. One thing that should be mentioned is that outgoing mail must be placed between the swing-down top door and the mail slot for incoming mail; this area will hold several business-size envelopes, and there might be a problem on a windy day. This doesn't bother me, since I can drop mail off at work, but might be a problem for some people. So far I am very pleased; I will update this information after a longer period of use. I appreciated the installation information that previous reviewers furnished--it was very helpful.
