Whitehall Mailbox Guide: Balmoral vs. Capitol

Choosing a personalized mailbox starts with three questions: Do you need a post or a wall mount? What wording should appear on it? And which pieces come with the package? Here is how the Whitehall mailbox options at Westmoor House compare.

Choose your package by the details that matter

Deluxe Capitol: decorative post and a two-line address

The Deluxe Capitol Mailbox & Post Package includes an aluminum mailbox, post, brackets, finial, personalized side plaques, hardware and instructions. Its decorative post makes it a good starting point if you prefer traditional details.

The configuration offered here has space for a house number and street name. The mailbox measures 9.625 inches wide, 13 inches high and 20.375 inches deep. The post measures 4 by 4 by 54 inches. These are separate component dimensions, not an installed height.

Balmoral: a wider mailbox with personalized side plaques

The Balmoral Mailbox & Post Package includes an aluminum mailbox, post, bracket, side plaques, hardware and instructions. It has a two-line address configuration and does not include a front monogram.

The mailbox measures 13.7 inches wide, 13 inches high and 21.25 inches deep. The post measures 4.5 by 4.5 by 56 inches. Compared with the Capitol's listed exterior dimensions, the Balmoral is wider and slightly deeper. Exterior measurements do not tell you the size of the opening or guarantee that a particular parcel will fit.

Modern Balmoral: large address numbers and a monogram

The Modern Balmoral Monogram Mailbox & Post Package includes the mailbox, coordinated post, mounting bracket, two personalized side plaques and one monogram. Choose this configuration if you want up to five 4-inch address numbers and a single initial instead of a street-name line.

The assembled package measures approximately 13.7 inches wide, 23 inches deep and 58.25 inches high. This is an assembled measurement, so it should not be compared directly with the separate post measurements above. Assembly is required.

Check the personalization before ordering

Start with the wording you need, then choose a configuration that accommodates it. Use the fields on the individual product page for the available lettering and character limits. Include punctuation exactly as you want it to appear.

Product photographs show sample lettering and may show a different address layout. They do not update to display your entered text. For the Capitol and standard Balmoral packages listed here, the ordering configuration uses two address lines even where a photograph shows one. Read our personalization and care guidance before submitting your order.

Allow time for personalization and shipping

The catalog production estimate is two weeks for the Capitol and standard Balmoral packages, and approximately 10 business days before shipment for the Modern Balmoral package. These are production estimates, not delivery promises. Shipping transit is additional.

These three mailbox and post packages include free standard shipping to the 48 contiguous states and Washington, DC. Other items in the same order may carry shipping charges. For destinations outside that area, contact us before ordering.

Need a wall-mounted mailbox?

A post package is not the only choice. The Personalized Wall Mailbox and Colonial Wall Mailbox with Plaque & Monogram are wall-mounted alternatives. Compare their dimensions with the space beside your entrance before choosing.

The free shipping offer for the three post packages does not apply to these wall-mounted alternatives.
