Heavy Built
Mailboxes that are Rugged and Stylish
Stop Having to
Regularly Replace your Mailbox due to Vandals with a Heavy Built Mailbox

If your mailbox has the propensity to
get hit by errant objects such as baseball bats and
snowplow blades and even waves of snow you may want to
consider installing a heavy built mailbox. Yes there are
rugged yet stylish mailbox alternatives that can hold up
better to vandals than your standard $10 metal mailbox.
So why live with either a beat up mailbox or having to
go out every few months and install a new one. Heavy
built mailboxes are specifically designed of strong
materials and of high quality to be resilient to vandals
and extreme weather conditions. |
They also typically come with warranties not found with
standard mailboxes. Moreover, they are also designed so that
they are aesthetically attractive and meet the approval of
the United States Postal Service.
A heavy built mailbox is different than a vandal resistant
mailbox. A vandal resistant mailbox is specifically designed
to prevent damage and theft from vandals. Consequently they
are very expensive, and to be honest neither look that
attractive or actually offer any greater protection, if a
vandal is absolutely intent on destroying your mailbox.

A heavy constructed mailbox, on the other hand is simply a sturdier built
mailbox that is designed to hold up better to the one-off incident where
someone drives by and gives it a swing with a baseball bat. Consequently a
heavy built mailbox is less expensive than a vandal resistant mailbox and
typically looks more common in appearance. They are often designed with
attractive finishes and decorative looks, unlike a vandal resistant one.
So if you don’t want to spend your weekends installing or repairing
mailboxes due to vandals constantly damaging your mailbox by throwing bricks
at it, hitting it with a baseball bat or exploding M80 firecrackers in it, I
suggest installing a heavy built mailbox. |
These types of mailboxes are extremely
durable, have a multi-step paint job, and often come with lifetime warranties.
They’re also reasonably priced and overall the best solution for dealing with
the vandals and weather elements. You can buy heavy duty built mailboxes on line
or at home improvement stores and they come in a variety of styles and colors to
satisfy even the most discriminating customer.
