Nightscaping Mailbox Series Assembly instructions
Locate the area where the Mailbox will be placed.
If the Bollard is not being mounted to existing concrete
or a permanent surface then a footer is needed.
Dig a hole for the footer. Refer to the Table A below for
suggested footing size.
BOLLARD SIZE RECOMMENDED FOOTER
Estate Series - 6x6x42”
Table A
Place the 1/2” electrical conduit (shown in Figure B) into the
footer. The top of the electrical conduit should be sitting at least
1” above the top of the footer hole/ground level. The base of
the electrical conduit should exit into the ground. If using J-Bolts
flip to Page 2 now.
Pour concrete around the 1/2” electrical conduit, filling the
footer. DO NOT FILL THE ELECTRICAL CONDUIT WITH CONCRETE.
Ensure that the concrete footer is level by using a Torpedo level.
Allow the concrete to cure for the recommended time
specified by the manufacturer.
Once the concrete has cured, position the Universal Mounting
Plate (UMP) onto the concrete footer in the desired position.
Mark your pilot holes for the wedge anchor bolts (provided). If
using J-bolts please see J-bolt installation instructions (Page 2).

Using a carbide tipped 3/8” drill bit (sold seperately), drill pilot
holes in the marked locations. After the pilot holes have been
drilled, insert the wedge anchor bolts (use hammer to secure).
7.
Place the UMP over the anchor bolts. Once it is located in the
desired position tighten the nuts until the UMP is securely
fastened to the footer. Make sure to raise the Bollard about
1/2” above the ground level using the provided nuts and bolts.
Not following these instructions will void all warranties.
8.
Run the lead wire from the luminaire through the 1/2” electrical
conduit and connect it to the power supply line using lithium
grease filled wire nuts.
9.
Place the Base Cover Plate over the Bollard then slide the
Bollard over the UMP (shown in Figure D). Check to make sure
that the Bollard is level and securely fasten the Bollard to the

Nut & Washer Assembly
Once you have secured the bollard tube to the UMP
(Shown in Figure K); now it is time to attach your
Mailbox Topper and optional Address Plate.
Remove the Mailbox Topper (and Address Plate) from
the protective packaging.
Place the Mailbox Topper on top of the 6x6x42”
bollard tube - Shown below in Figure I. Securely fasten
the Mailbox Topper with the four stainless steel screws
(provided) to the top of the bollard tube.
If attaching an Address Plate to the Bollard, attach the two
stainless steel screws (provided) to the top part of the Mailbox
Topper’s mounting plates. The two screws fasten directly to the
Mailbox Topper’s mounting plates. Mounting Plate shown in
Figure I.
After securely fastening the two top screws on the Address
Plate to the Mailbox Topper’s mounting plate use a drill to
attach the base of the Address Plate to the Bollard Tube using
the stainless steel self-tapping screw provided - Shown in
Figure J. Drill a small pilot hole before inserting the self-
tapping screw (This step is recommended - but not required).
After securely fastening the Address Plate to the Bollard Tube
your installation process is complete!
