We haven't installed it yet to know if its an easy install. I love the address plaque and the scrolling, but was taken back by the very large size of the mailbox. I didn't pay attention to the dimensions because from the picture it looked about normal mailbox size. It was quite expensive to not love it 100%, but I don't want to have to be bothered sending it back either since it took me so long to find what I wanted. I just wish the mailbox were smaller.
