Mail Chests – 4350
Newspaper Holder on Pedestal Installation Instructions
U.S.P.S. APPROVED
Thank you for selecting Salsbury’s 4350 mail chest mailbox. This instruction sheet is for installing the 4350 mail chest along with a 4315 newspaper holder on a
pedestal. Other installation instructions are available for installing the mail chest on a pedestal, or on a deluxe post, installing the mail chest on spreaders, and
installing the pedestal in a concrete footing.
When you install a curbside or roadside mailbox, make sure that it is easily accessible to the mail carrier. By regulation a locked mailbox should be 41” to 45” from
the ground or street surface up to the point of mail entry. The door should be set back 6” to 8” back from the front face of the curb or the road edge. However, you
should check with your local postmaster to ensure that the mailbox is installed according to local regulations. It is important to note that it is not the responsibility of
mail carriers to open mailboxes that are locked, accept keys for this purpose, or lock mailboxes after delivery of the mail.
Newspaper Holder to Pedestal Installation
Install four (4) 5/16”-18 x 2” long pan head bolts provided with the pedestal
through the four (4) square holes shown in the inside floor of the newspaper
holder and through the four (4) tapped holes on the top plate of the pedestal.
Insert a Phillips head screw driver through each square hole directly above,
and in the top of the newspaper holder, to tighten the pan head bolts.
Mail Chest Installation on a Newspaper Holder and Pedestal
All hardware to attach the mail chest to the newspaper holder is included with

(4) 5/16”-18 X 3/4” long carriage bolts into (4) square holes in the floor of the

Cover the hex nuts with cap plugs. Installation is complete. Additional
hardware provided is not needed and may be discarded.
