Cluster mount mailboxes are a reliable solution for communities, apartment complexes, and HOAs in The Woodlands, Texas that need secure, organized, and efficient mail delivery. These units, often called CBUs (Cluster Box Units), combine multiple locked compartments in one structure—making mail distribution easier for postal carriers and safer for residents. At Mailbox Lock The Woodlands, we specialize in cluster mount mailbox installation and repair service, offering professional support to property managers, HOA boards, and local developers. Whether you're installing new units, replacing outdated boxes, or repairing locks and doors, our experienced team is ready to help.

Cluster mount mailboxes are the preferred choice for multi-unit properties and neighborhoods that require centralized mail access. They're designed to be tamper-resistant, weatherproof, and efficient for both residents and mail carriers. Instead of individual curbside boxes, a cluster unit consolidates deliveries into one secure location.
In The Woodlands, CBUs are popular in planned communities and residential developments. They’re also required in many new constructions to meet USPS centralized delivery standards. If you need individual installation services, we also provide post mount and wall mount solutions.
Installing a cluster mount mailbox requires precision and sturdy anchoring. Tools include concrete drills, level, torque wrench, anchors, and mounting bolts. For ground-mounted units, a pre-poured concrete pad is required. Our team provides everything, including USPS-approved CBUs and lock kits.
We also bring diagnostic tools to check existing cluster unit conditions for needed repairs or upgrades. If lock issues are a concern, see our lock replacement services for secure access restoration.
For private homes with fewer boxes, explore our wall-mounted box services.
Over time, CBUs can experience lock jams, bent doors, missing keys, or base instability. We frequently service vandalism damage, tenant lockouts, and door hinge failures. Weather-related wear can also affect paint and seal quality.
Outdated or discontinued models can be hard to service without professional support. We keep parts for common units and offer full replacement if needed. Check out our section on mail security threats for more on the risks of neglected boxes.
We handle repairs for all USPS-approved cluster boxes, including:
Our technicians respond quickly and carry replacement locks, hinges, and key blanks on-site. Need replacement keys? We offer key duplication services as well.
If your CBU has significant rust, missing doors, or structural instability, it’s usually time to replace. Multiple broken compartments or discontinued models can make repair cost-ineffective. We’ll evaluate the condition, offer both options, and help you make the right call.
We work with HOAs and landlords to minimize disruption and handle all tenant communication if needed.
All CBUs installed by our team comply with USPS 4C and 1172 regulations, including height, location, and accessibility standards. We’re also familiar with HOA design and placement restrictions throughout The Woodlands.
We'll ensure your cluster mailbox installation is approved by both the postmaster and your local development board, so you don’t face delays or violations.
Cluster mount mailboxes now come in a variety of powder-coated finishes including sandstone, bronze, white, and black. We help you choose styles that complement your neighborhood or property aesthetic.
You can also add custom numbering, tenant labels, parcel lockers, and security upgrades. Ask us about ADA-compliant configurations for accessible communities or enhanced security doors for areas with higher mail theft concerns. Learn more about secure setup options on our mail protection page.
