All Imperial products are constructed of high-quality aluminum and assembled using stainless steel hardware. Aluminum is a strong, lightweight metal that is resistant to rust, making it a great choice for outdoor products. Sand-casting helps to maintain a high level of quality control.
Each piece is then coated using an industrial strength enamel paint to provide an appealing finish with professional durability for years of service. Products are offered in a variety of colors, so be sure to browse our color options.
Stainless steel hardware and locking mechanisms round out the tough construction of the Imperial product line. Stainless steel offers the same rust and corrosion resistance similar to aluminum while contributing added strength where it is needed most. This yields a finished product that is durable, secure and built to last.
Configuration Options
When describing Imperial Mailbox Systems, one word comes to mind: variety. There are many options available from Imperial to consider for every aspect of your order. From finishes, number plaques, and support brackets all the way to the finials or optional light fixtures made to adorn the top of your post, Imperial allows for a variety of elegant mailbox configurations.
Every number or letter in the package SKU signifies the part included with your Imperial Mailbox package. You may opt to choose each piece individually or choose from one of our attractive pre-designed packages. Either way, we are here to help you find the perfect design for your project.
Selecting each individual part may require a little preparation, so please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the options. If you do choose to individually select each item in your package, here are a few helpful guidelines to consider when planning your design.
Selecting a Post
Let's begin with the various posts to consider. The post system contains a post and decorative bracket, with your choice of stylish base and finial. Every Imperial post is engineered using extruded aluminum for durability and offers a sturdy foundation for your new mailbox. The base and finial are engineered using the same cast-aluminum as the entire Imperial line.
Address Plate
As with other aspects of your design, you can choose from several variations on the Imperial address plate. Address plates come in box mount or post mount configurations. However, it should be noted that some top mount number plates are only available for use on certain mailboxes. For example, a #8 plate will only mount to the #8 mailbox due to the flat bottom of the plate and flat top design of the mailbox. Likewise, the #4 post mount plate can only be attached to certain posts.
Two-inch and Three-inch brass numbers are available for specific plates. Numbers are attached using an adhesive. If purchased with a mailbox and number plate, the numbers are adhered to the plate before shipping from the factory. The number heights vary depending on which plate you purchase.
Pick Your Mailbox
Imperial mailboxes are engineered to last for years. The Imperial design is offered in the standard USPS size, as well as the larger Estate Size mailbox for rural areas. The Estate box is 45% larger than a standard box. Not all post options are available when opting for the larger Estate size.
You can choose from a variety of door and side adornment options with the Imperial mailbox. Also, make sure the address plate you choose is compatible with your chosen box. You may want to spend a minute looking over the selection. Please refer to the options before finalizing your mailbox design.
Once you have selected your mailbox, you can choose between a brass knob or brass ring for the door of your box.
