Mailbox hanger mount

thingiverse

I designed this special over-engineered spacer-hanger for our mailbox to be able to mount it onto our forged front gate. It solves an individual problem, but I uploaded it in case anyone can make a use of it. I needed a special hanger which follows the radius of the gate (as seen on the picture) - that is the reason for L and R version in the files - and also serves as a spacer, since the parts of the gate are connected by a protruding rivets right where the mailbox sits (as seen on the picture of the gate model). Since these hangers push the mailbox away from the gate there is also some support needed at the bottom which compensate for the gap between them. Two BottomSpacerLocks solve this problem, by also ticking the box of anti-theft thanks to locking on to the gate from the back - the mailbox can't be pulled away even if someone lifts it off from its place. The parts were designed for M4 screws with hex nuts. SolidWorks files included.
