4 Smart Upgrades for Your Post-Mount Mailbox
Your mailbox might be small, but it says a lot about your home. It’s the first thing visitors see when they pull up – a detail that can either blend into the background or instantly boost your curb appeal. If your current setup feels a little lackluster, it might be time for an upgrade (or five).
At Post & Porch, we believe every home deserves curb appeal that feels modern, intentional, built to last, and high-end. Here are four simple but impactful ways to give your post-mount mailbox a full-scale glow-up – featuring our most-loved, 5-star rated curb appeal accessories:
1. Start with a Sturdy Mailbox Post

Let’s be honest – even the most beautiful post-mount mailbox loses its overall charm if the post is wobbly, weathered, warped, or leaning to one side. A sturdy mailbox post sets the foundation for everything else, keeping your post box setup both functional and refined.
Our modern mailbox posts are handcrafted with precision, designed to pair with The Malone Post-Mount Mailbox perfectly. Built from durable, powder-coated steel, each mailbox post resists rust, fading, bowing, and corrosion, ensuring your curb appeal looks fresh 24/7.
Available in multiple finishes to complement your home’s exterior, the Post & Porch Mailbox Post transforms your normal post box into a cohesive design moment – not just a necessity.

2. Add Personality with a Magnetic Mailbox Flag

Think of your mailbox flag as a small detail that makes a big impression.
Whether you prefer something bold or understated, the right mailbox flag adds personality while serving its daily function. Our magnetic mailbox flags make upgrading easy; no screws, no fuss. Each one attaches effortlessly with a strong magnet and stays secure in all weather types.
They’re available in red but can be painted, allowing you to customize your mailbox flag to match your style or coordinate with your house numbers and planter pots for a seamless look. It’s a simple touch that instantly elevates your curb appeal because even small details matter.

3. Frame Your Post-Mount Mailbox with Planter Pots

Nothing softens a modern post-mounted mailbox setup quite like greenery can. Pairing your Malone Mailbox with modern planter pots easily creates balance, color, vibrancy, and life – transforming a simple mailbox post into a beautifully styled curb appeal feature.
Post & Porch’s Planter Pots are built from durable, lightweight ficonstone that stands up to outdoor elements without cracking, warping, or fading. Choose from our Milard, Heritage, Holbrook, Serene, or Millcreek designs – each one handcrafted in Utah for lasting curb appeal.
Whether you prefer tall planters for front porch symmetry or a matching planter pot set flanking your mailbox, this upgrade makes your space feel curated and complete. Fill them with seasonal blooms, textured greens, or even fake succulents for a touch of year-round style.

4. Upgrade to Magnetic Mailbox Numbers for Some Edge

Mailbox numbers are the jewelry of your curb appeal. They’re small yet unmissable.
But when done right, they make your entire entryway feel intentional.
Our magnetic mailbox numbers give your post-mount mailbox setup that modern, clean look without permanent mounting or any visible screws. Each magnetic mailbox number adheres easily to your Post & Porch Malone Mailbox and stays firmly in place, even in harsh weather.
Choose from unique font styles (see a font reference sheet here) and finishes to complement your curb appeal palette. Whether you’re aiming for sleek black-on-white contrast or a warm metallic accent, these mailbox numbers add the finishing touch your mailbox deserves.
