Do these come ready to mount on the post, or do I need to buy a mounting kit as well. The vinyl post is 5" x 5"?

They are ready to mount on 5" x 5" posts, two screws are provided. We have gotten lots of positive comments from neighbors about our lights on our vinyl fence. Two of our neighbors have already purchased some for their fences. The sun discolors (slightly yellow) the plastic after while but they still look great. We love them.

These lights fit over my 4x4 posts perfectly. There is a 1/16" hole on each side for mounting with screws supplied. Myself I used two small nails but be careful when hammering as to not hit the light or crack it. Best to use the screws if not good at hammering. No drilling necessary.

Well, the description clearly states "Mounts easily to 4 x 4 post (not included)" so the answer would be "no".

If you have balusters or a post you will need a mount kit. It would help for a wall too, to give you a flat area to attach to.

Hi, No, it does not come with a mounting bracket for a post. However, this is exactly what I had -- a 4x4 post. All I really did was place a mounting board on the post (cut to fit the bottom of the mailbox), and then screwed box onto the mounting bracket. If done with good wood, you will have a very solid mount. I really like this mailbox and it has been up a number of months and is working great.Hope this helps,Dick

You will have to purchase a post separately. In my case it was used for decorative purposes only.

If your question is mounting screws for the post is sort of a yes and no answer. Yes there are three short screws that will mount it on an existing post but the screws are very short so if you have a small post the screws will be too short. If you are asking if the screws would be long enough to screw into a post that will not happen again screws too short for that. I am sure you could find at store longer screws if you need them.

The post is not included. The kit is a sleeve that you will need to put over a post that you install. We used our existing post.

I installed my mount from the ceiling and that worked very well. The kit comes with several height posts and should work ok for your application.

If you mount to a round post you need an adapter. Square or rectangle mount is included.

It is up to you. I used a 4 X 4 wooden post that is working quite well. Best wishes.

I comes with wall mounting brackets. This makes for an easy installation but will require two persons for final fit up.

No, I used the ones that came with it because I was mounting into 5/8" thick wood paneling. You may need longer screws depending on your application.

Ours did not come with a mounting kit.We were replacing an old broken backboard to fiit our pole .it was recommend ed that I buy the mounting kit. If you are replacing a broken backboard I suggest you call the manufacturer first. They told me exactly what to buy and it worked out great.

No sir, they fit 5 inches only, if you use them on a 4" post they will fall off

The bottom of each post has a plate with 2 holes they are 180 degree's apart, you can use any kind of lag screw or wood screw or even cement screws
