Optimized Universal Mailbox Indicator Review

Our mailbox is embedded in a brick pillar and had no indication for the postman that there was outgoing mail. I really like this flag I put on the approach side of the pillar. As instructed, I pre-drilled the mounting holes in the mortar joints with the recommended 5/32" masonry bit. One of the included blue concrete screws broke while I was driving it in. Getting the broken part out was a real pain, so I didn't have to drill new holes and die Moving the flag I would recommend not using the…
