Wall Mounted Mailboxes
A wall mounted mailbox is the cleanest way to receive mail without adding a post to your yard. Vsons Design wall mounted mailboxes are engineered and manufactured in North America using rust-proof aluminum and stainless steel — the same materials used in architectural hardware and marine applications. Every model is designed to mount directly to your home's exterior wall, porch, or entryway, keeping your mail secure and your curb appeal intentional. Compare wall-mounted vs post-mounted mailboxes.
Our wall mount mailbox collection includes 15+ models across three material grades: powder-coated aluminum (100% rust-proof), 304 stainless steel, and 316L marine-grade stainless steel for coastal homes. Prices start at $125 USD. Every mailbox ships within 3–5 business days with free shipping on orders over $100.
Why Homeowners Choose Wall Mounted Mailboxes
Wall mounted mailboxes are the preferred choice for modern homes, renovations, and any property where mail is delivered to the door. Unlike post-mounted mailboxes installed at the curb, a wall mount mailbox attaches directly to your home — beside the front door, on a porch column, or near the entryway — putting your mail within arm's reach.
Wall mounted mailboxes work best when:
- Your mail carrier delivers to the door (common in suburbs, townhomes, and urban areas)
- You want a clean, contemporary look without a post in the yard
- Your property doesn't have curb access or a clear post location
- You prefer a secure, lockable mailbox close to your entryway
- You're replacing an outdated builder-grade mailbox during a renovation
A well-chosen wall mounted mailbox does more than hold mail. It's one of the first things visitors see — and one of the easiest upgrades to elevate your home's exterior from builder-grade to architect-grade.

Wall Mount Mailbox Materials: Aluminum vs Stainless Steel
Choosing the right material for your wall mounted mailbox depends on your climate, aesthetic preference, and budget. Vsons uses three material grades — each selected for permanent outdoor durability, not seasonal replacement.
Powder-Coated Aluminum
Our aluminum wall mounted mailboxes are built from 14-gauge aluminum with an industrial powder-coat finish. Aluminum is 100% rust-proof — it does not corrode, even in humid or rainy climates. The powder coat adds UV resistance and scratch protection, so the finish holds for decades without fading, peeling, or chalking. Available in matte black, white, and dark bronze. This is the most popular choice for homeowners who want a modern black wall mounted mailbox that stays black.
304 Stainless Steel
304 stainless steel is the standard for architectural hardware and kitchen appliances. It resists rust in most residential environments and develops a distinctive brushed finish that complements contemporary and mid-century architecture. Vsons stainless steel mailboxes use American-sourced 304 stainless with a brushed or powder-coated finish. Ideal for most homes outside of direct coastal exposure.
316L Marine-Grade Stainless Steel
For homes within 1 mile of saltwater, 316L marine-grade stainless steel is the only material that guarantees zero corrosion. It contains molybdenum, which provides superior resistance to salt spray, chlorides, and acidic environments. Vsons marine-grade mailboxes are built for Florida, the Carolinas, California coast, Pacific Northwest, and Gulf states. If you can smell the ocean from your porch, this is the material to choose.
How to Choose the Right Wall Mounted Mailbox
The right wall mount mailbox depends on three factors: the volume of mail you receive, the finish that matches your home, and whether you need a lock.
For standard daily mail (letters, small envelopes)
The Louis and City models offer a clean, compact profile that handles everyday mail without dominating your entryway. The Louis is our most popular model — it's the one you'll see in most Vsons customer photos.
For heavy mail, magazines, and small packages
The Mitch and Andrew models provide large-format capacity. The Mitch fits oversized envelopes, catalogs, and rolled magazines. The Andrew is our largest wall mount model — ideal for households that receive frequent deliveries.
For a unique architectural statement
The Ely, Matt, and Martin Square models use angular geometry and unconventional proportions. If your home has clean modern lines and you want a mailbox that looks like it was designed by an architect (because it was), these are the models to explore.
For coastal and humid climates
Any model in our 316L marine-grade stainless steel lineup. Or choose aluminum — it's inherently rust-proof regardless of climate. Both options are covered in our best mailbox for coastal homes guide.
Modern Lockable Wall Mounted Mailboxes
Mail theft is a growing concern across North America. A modern lockable mailbox protects sensitive documents, checks, credit cards, and packages from unauthorized access.
Vsons locking wall mounted mailboxes use a mail slot design: your carrier slides mail through the top slot, but the mailbox can only be opened with a key from the front. The mail slot on the Louis and Mitch models measures 12" × ¾" — wide enough for standard and legal-size envelopes. The locking mechanism is integrated into the design, not bolted on as an afterthought.
Models with locking options: Louis (all materials), Mitch (all materials).
A lockable wall mount mailbox is especially recommended for:
- Properties visible from the street
- Multi-family homes and duplexes
- Vacation homes or seasonal residences
- Any homeowner who receives sensitive financial mail
Finishes and Personalization
Every Vsons wall mounted mailbox is available in multiple finishes to match your home's exterior palette:
- Matte Black — The most requested finish. Works with every architectural style from modern to farmhouse.
- White — Clean and bright. Pairs well with light siding, stucco, or coastal aesthetics.
- Dark Bronze — Rich, warm tone for traditional, craftsman, and transitional homes.
- Brushed Stainless Steel — Raw metal aesthetic for mid-century and contemporary homes.
Custom house numbers can be added at checkout. Aluminum models use precision-cut vinyl lettering in your choice of color. Stainless steel models use laser engraving — the laser removes the powder coat to reveal the brushed steel underneath, creating a permanent, weather-proof personalization that will never peel or fade.
Wall Mounted Mailbox Installation
Every Vsons wall mount mailbox installs with standard mounting hardware (not included — use hardware appropriate for your wall type: masonry anchors for brick/stone, lag screws for wood, toggle bolts for stucco). Installation requires a drill, level, and 15–20 minutes.
Important installation notes:
- All Vsons wall mounted mailboxes are designed for protected wall mounting — beside a door, under an overhang, or on a covered porch.
- We do not recommend mounting on an exposed fence, gate, or freestanding post without our fence bracket accessory, as the rear-panel mounting holes are not designed for full weather exposure.
- A sealing kit is available at checkout for maximum weather protection in exposed installations.
Shipping
All Vsons wall mounted mailboxes ship within 3 business days via UPS. Free standard shipping (3–7 business days) on orders over $100. UPS 3-day express shipping available at checkout.
We ship across the United States and Canada. Each mailbox arrives individually wrapped in a protective canvas bag inside a custom shipping box.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a wall mounted mailbox?
A wall mounted mailbox is a mail receptacle that attaches directly to an exterior wall, porch column, or entryway surface rather than standing on a post at the curb. It is designed for homes where the mail carrier delivers mail to the door. Wall mounted mailboxes are common in suburbs, townhomes, urban homes, and any property without curb-side delivery requirements.
What is the best material for a wall mounted mailbox?
The best material depends on your climate. Powder-coated aluminum is 100% rust-proof and the most durable option for most North American climates. 304 stainless steel offers a premium brushed finish for dry to moderate environments. 316L marine-grade stainless steel is required for homes within 1 mile of saltwater. Avoid low-grade steel or plastic mailboxes — they corrode, fade, or crack within 2–5 years.
Are Vsons mailboxes made in North America?
Yes. Vsons Design mailboxes are engineered in and manufactured in North America. We use American-sourced aluminum and stainless steel. Vsons is not an importer — every mailbox is designed and produced by our team using SolidWorks engineering and precision manufacturing.
Can I lock a wall mounted mailbox?
Yes. Vsons offers locking options on the Louis and Mitch models across all material grades. The locking mechanism uses a mail slot on top (12" × ¾") for carrier delivery and a keyed front opening for the homeowner. This protects against mail theft without affecting your carrier's delivery routine.
How do I choose between wall mounted and post mounted mailboxes?
Choose a wall mounted mailbox if your mail carrier delivers to the door. Choose a post mounted mailbox if your carrier delivers to the curb (common in rural areas and neighborhoods with centralized delivery points). If you're unsure, check with your local post office or see our wall-mounted vs post-mounted comparison guide.
What sizes of wall mounted mailboxes does Vsons offer?
Vsons wall mount mailboxes range from compact (7" × 14" × 3.5" on the City model) to large-format (12" × 16" × 4" on the Andrew model). The most popular size is the Louis at 14" × 7" × 4", which fits standard letters and envelopes. The Mitch at 14" × 11" × 4" accommodates magazines, catalogs, and oversized mail.
Do wall mounted mailboxes work with USPS?
Yes. All Vsons wall mounted mailboxes are compatible with USPS door delivery. The mail slot and opening dimensions accept standard letter mail, legal-size envelopes, and flat-rate envelopes. For package delivery, USPS carriers typically leave larger items at the door regardless of mailbox type.
How long do Vsons mailboxes last?
Vsons mailboxes are built for 20+ year outdoor performance. Aluminum models are inherently rust-proof and will not corrode. Stainless steel models maintain their appearance for decades with minimal maintenance (occasional cleaning with mild soap and water). The powder-coat finishes are UV-resistant, scratch-resistant, and tested for North American weather extremes.
How much does a good wall mounted mailbox cost?
Vsons wall mounted mailboxes range from $115 to $250 USD depending on model, material, and finish. This places them between mass-produced builder-grade mailboxes ($30–$60) and custom-fabricated architectural mailboxes ($800–$1,500+). Vsons mailboxes deliver architect-grade design and materials at a fraction of custom fabrication pricing.
What is the most popular Vsons wall mounted mailbox?
The Louis Aluminum in matte black is the best-selling Vsons wall mounted mailbox. It combines a clean, modern profile with 100% rust-proof aluminum construction, optional locking, and custom house number engraving. It's the model most photographed in customer installations and the one we recommend as a starting point for most homes.
