It wouldn't hurt to fill the hole with caulking before mounting the mailbox to the stucco to prevent any water ingress. This assumes a concrete type stucco and not an acrylic stucco which I haven't dealt with before. If you were using a hammer drill with a masonary bit that bit will likely stop when you hit wood.
If you've already drilled through the stucco then you can probably note at what depth the wood starts as the drill will behave differently as it goes through different material.

Opt for 1/2" + thickness of wall before shealthing plus depth required to mount mail box (if metal 1/8" is probably fine). You should choose some corrosion resistant fasteners - deck screws #8 would likely be good. The sheathing is going to be wood so really all you need is to pilot through the stucco until you reach the wood. Depending on your wall assembly details - year of construction / climate - the sheathing can be 1/2" away from the surface of your stucco or 1 3/4"+ away or anything in between. What you really want is to mount the mail box through the stucco to the sheathing that is behind the stucco. A lead anchor look similar and is typically used on brick siding but depending on depth of stucco it is possibly you could rely on a lead anchor in stucco. What's the best approach here and why is there so much contradictory information out there?ġ0-15 pounds seem heavy for a mailbox but even plastic drywall anchors are rated higher than that for so I don't think the weight is going to be a problem. Using the drywall (?) anchor above seemed to be very secure but it really chewed up the stucco as I was screwing it in (I drilled a hole first but just guessed at the size). I did experiment a bit in an inconspicuous location and using a cement screw didn't work well at all (I drilled a hole with the bit size the instructions said to use, and the screw was completely loose).

some say that the following photo is a stucco anchor, while some say it's a drywall anchor:.some things say to use a plastic anchor, some say never to.Unfortunately I am finding lots of contradictory information: The mailbox is a little heavier than you might expect (maybe 10-15 lbs).īefore doing any research I figured I would drill with a masonry bit and use some sort of anchor intended for stucco, and that would be it. I'm not sure what kind of stucco it is, but it is very smooth. Been searching around and I have more questions than answers.
