Madison Rock and Roll Mailbox Flag Instruction Manual

Madison Rock and Roll Mailbox Flag

MAILBOX FLAG INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

Thank you for your purchase of our unique and decorative mailbox flag. As mailboxes and mailbox flag fasteners vary from mailbox to mailbox, we cannot account for every flag configuration on the market. You may have to be creative in fastening your flag to your mailbox if it is different than the standard steel mailbox style clip.

• Our mailbox flags are designed for standard mailboxes with this type of mailbox flag fastening device. NOT INCLUDED!

• Take out peg from inside the mailbox

• Get rid of the cheap flimsy flag that comes with the mailbox and replace with one of our unique flags

• Replace flag in reverse order that you took the other flag out.

Now your ready to Rock and Roll!
If you have a different style check the next page out for an alternative way

As said before, we cannot account for the large variety of different style mailboxes on the market, But this could be an alternative for mailboxes with different style flag holders. This may not work with your mailbox, so before purchasing check to see it you can use one of these methods. We do not include or supply hardware for this alternative method, but we do give you part numbers that you can purchase at your local hardware store.

We have picked up these hardware pieces from our local Lowe’s in Madison

What you will need is:

1. 1pc ¼-20 x ¾” Pan Head Bolt (Hillman #35215)
2. 1pc ¼ -20 Nyloc locking nut (Hillman #883182)
3. 1pc ¼”ID ½”OD Nylon Washer (Hillman#881545)
4. 2pcs .343x.885x.062 Nylon washer (Hillman#884555)
5. ¼” drill bit – If there is not a hole already
6. 7/16” wrench
7. Phillips screw driver

Steps:

1. Drill a ¼” hole where you want the flag to be if there is not already a hole in the mailbox
2. Take the Pan head bolt and put one of the larger washers and then the smaller washer on the bolt. The small washer should fit inside the ½” hole in the flag so it doesn’t flop around.
3. Take the flag and place over the ½” plastic washer and then put the other large washer over the bolt (this washer helps keep the flag from rubbing on the mailbox
4. Put it all through the ¼” hole that you drilled and place the Nyloc nut on the bolt inside the mailbox and tighten with a 7/16 wrench and Phillips screw driver

If you want to put a mailbox flag stop on it you can get a larger Nylon spacer (Hillman#880444) and use another ¼ Pan Head Bolt along with the ¼” nyloc nut and place it right below the flag where you would like it to rest.

Drill a hole and then fasten it in place.
Note: If your good, you can place this so that it stops the flag when it is up and when it comes down. We don’t have that measurement, you will just have to try it in different places
