Big on Security. Built for Everything.

The Senator is a powerhouse mailbox: 148 pounds of ¼” steel, recessed doors, and reinforced protection for both mail and packages. It combines the proven design of our Fortress Mailbox with a separate lockable package compartment below. From checks and prescriptions to online orders, everything stays secure in one rugged unit. Yes, it’s hefty—but still ships via Ground.

Inspired by a Great Idea — From a Real Senator

One of our customers, a former Senator, asked if we could tweak the Fortress design to include a package section. We loved the idea—and the Senator Mailbox was born. Today, it’s a favorite among folks who want no-compromise security for every kind of delivery.

Meets all USPS Requirements

Description

This is How It Works!

The Senator has three sections.

  1. The upper section has an unlocked door, for the mail carrier to pull down on the handle and insert your mail into the mail slot. Right below the incoming mail slot is an outgoing mail shelf, (completely enclosed and separate from the incoming area). Your outgoing mail cannot be locked by postal standards, but it’s out of sight, behind a door. Please see the cutaway diagram below. The Senator comes with a Flag.
  2. The middle section has a locked door. It’s where you’ll retrieve your incoming mail. It will always be safe, protected, and waiting for you. You are the only one with a key!
  3. The lower section comes with a Slam Lock to accommodate bigger packages. Just leave the lower door slightly ajar each day after removing your packages, and the mail carrier will insert new packages and shut the door, which automatically locks it. This lower section will hold a large shoe box sized package.

The Senator is pre-drilled on the bottom. 4 holes, 6 ¾” apart, and designed to fit our Large Posts. It can also be mounted to existing surfaces.

It comes with our amazing, thick powder-coating finish to combat all the elements.

  1. Paul S.

    Thank you again for manufacturing such a wonderful product. This mailbox can only be described as, “Extreme Quality.”

  2. Brant B.

    We love our new Senator mailbox. I wanted to attach (4) pictures showing our installation method. I built a frame so (4) people could pick it up together and set it on the pole. It worked great. No hurt backs. Thanks for building a great product

  3. John

    Somebody tried to steal my mailbox last week. They started by ramming into it with a pickup truck & managed only a small dent in the stand, but a big dent in their truck. Next, they used a cargo strap to wrap around it to pull it out of the ground, & the cement finally gave way. The beauty of this incident is that, by that time, my dogs started barking & it chased them away. We kept the nearly new cargo strap!

    The mailbox looks a little worse for wear & I have to get new numbers, but I’m glad I still have a mailbox!

    Thanks for best built mailbox ever!

  4. Ron

    The mailbox came last week and I was able to install it today. The hole pattern worked out perfectly. Thank you for such a superior product

  5. John K.

    I am a customer of your’s and I would like to thank you for building such a great product.
    I have enclosed some photos of a miss hap that happened yesterday, The car was totally obliterated and the mailbox
    hardly had a scratch, the car was on top of the mailbox and never it never collapsed.

    5 years later and I still turn to look at it.

  7. Mark W.

    I purchased one of your mailboxes 3 years ago. Each of my neighbors have spent at least as much money on “fortifying” off the shelf boxes. Each of my neighbors also continuously have their boxes broken into. There are crowbar marks on my box but not even the slightest dentin the door. This box is built like “Fort Knox” indeed. Now I need to purchase another larger box for packages. I’m going to purchase the XL Vault.
    Thank you for providing piece of mind for my remote mail delivery. You folks are the best!
