Metal art mailbox toppers are a great way to add a touch of nature and personality to your mailbox. These beautiful pieces of metal art are available in a variety of designs, including wildlife scenes such as wolves, moose, horses, elk, deer, and bears. Each design is made from 18-gauge steel and powder-coated in your choice of five colors, ensuring that your mailbox topper will withstand the elements for years to come.
Installation Instructions
To install your metal art mailbox topper, you will need a few tools and materials:
- Drill
- Small bolts or rivets
- Wrench
- Pliers
- Measuring tape
- Marker
Step 1: Bend the Mounting Tab
To mount your mailbox topper, you will need to bend the mounting tab at a 90-degree angle. Use pliers to carefully bend the tab so that it is perpendicular to the back of the topper. This will allow you to attach the topper to your mailbox.
Step 2: Measure and Mark the Mounting Holes
Using a measuring tape, measure the distance between the mounting holes on the topper. Then, using a marker, mark the locations on your mailbox where you will need to drill holes. Double-check your measurements to ensure that the holes are evenly spaced.
Step 3: Drill Holes in the Mailbox
Using a drill bit that is the same size as the mounting hardware you will be using, drill holes in the locations that you marked on your mailbox.
Step 4: Attach the Mailbox Topper
Using the bolts or rivets, attach the mailbox topper to the mailbox. Use a wrench to tighten the bolts or pliers to secure the rivets. Double-check that the topper is straight and centered on your mailbox.

While these instructions are fairly straightforward, if you are uncomfortable drilling holes in your mailbox or attaching the topper, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a professional. This will ensure that your mailbox topper is securely mounted and looks great.
