Here's an easy way to install a mailbox anchor for a 4x4 post. This no dig ground screw just threads into the ground with no tools and works with decorative mailbox posts/sleeves that slide over a 4x4. I've used these a few times and recommend them. They aren't as solid as a concrete of course but plenty study for a mailbox and easy to reposition if needed.

Glad you enjoyed it!

@mssatire14 Год назад

I was thinking to do this or to pour concrete, let it set and put a post holder on it with concrete screws and to post. The wood eventually gets bad, so I totally like this idea way better

You make great videos man. You also slightly remind me of Lieutenant Dan.

@NaterTater 2 года назад

Thanks Scott! Lt Dan is my doppelganger

@cheefadareafer 2 года назад

I new I'd seen you before lieutenant Dan You got new legs!!!

@hermanmunster714 Месяц назад

looks loose, flimsy and wobbly without quickcrete

@HeronCoyote1234 Год назад

I’m a complete novice when it comes to this. Couple of questions. What would happen if the post is not 100% level? I’m not talking about wonky, but just ever so slightly not level. Also, because the screw in bracket (the piece you put in the ground) only has two sides and is not a box, how does the wood post stand up by itself before you screw it into the metal part?

@markhoelting7095 Год назад

Nate, I did not see a link at the end of this video with the manufacturer of the anchor. Would you mind sharing it?

@NaterTater Год назад

Hi Mark, it's in the video description below the video in RU-vid. You likely have to click "more" to see it.

@frogstomp11 Год назад

I imagine you'll have to drill pilot holes for the lag bolts?

@NaterTater Год назад

Yes you could/should if your wood is dense. My 4x4 is probably 20yrs old and was able to accommodate the extra "squish" without a pilot hole or any cracking.

@frogstomp11 Год назад

@@NaterTater Thanks, that's what I figured. It's a brand new 4x4 and quite dense. I have a large selection of bits. Just waiting until Thursday when it arrives. Thanks again for the video and recommendation.

@douglasflores1462 11 месяцев назад

Do you think it will work with a post 7 feet tall for a solar lamp post?

@NaterTater 11 месяцев назад

i think they make longer ones that might work better for that. like 3ft long

@kickliquid 2 года назад

My questions is how sturdy is it? do you feel a lot of give when you wiggle it around? will it stay true level over the years? It's about time to replace mine and I was looking at the various methods on how to doing it. Thanks in advanced

@NaterTater 2 года назад

I find it as stable as direct bury of a 4x4 post. A concreted post beats it out. It partially depends on your soil type, sand doesnt hold well and if its super soft (water saturated) clay then it can get lose. "Regular" dirt works well from my experience.

@skee6706 Месяц назад

can this be used to anchor a lean-to ?

@NaterTater Месяц назад

Depends on size/use and your local code.

@lapeur Год назад

How sturdy is it?

@NaterTater Год назад

Will depend somewhat on the soil but i'd say atleast as good as digging the same depth hole and sticking the 4x4 post in the ground. Less sturdy then a larger hole and concrete anchored post. Mine is still standing straight today without me messing with it.

@da8675 Год назад

Do you think these ankors will be strong enough for 7 foot 4×4's and provide tension for a sunshade? Perhaps 7 foot posts would add too much leverage for it to work.
