What can I use for a front post that will adhere for more than a day?

Without any other information, the ZP should work well. There's a Youtube vid showing how to mix the ZP ... it helps you understand the mixing process better, especially for those without experience, which was my case.

3M says there is a unique Picture Hanging Strip that has a stronger adhesive. I have looked for them everywhere but haven't found them. The large refill strips will work just fine if the picture's weight doesn't exceed the listed weight of the strip.

Single sided adhesive. I would suggest going to your local department store and trying out the two-sided tape or museum putty/gel. This is a fairly large roll of neoprene. I bought it years ago and still have some left.

Clean both the suction cups and the area where you are going to attach it, then put a few drops of a soapy solution on the cups before you lock them down. They will stick for days and days.

Not the best adhesive for that. I would use Loctite Power Grab. Sold at Lowes & Home Depot. Apply the Loctite and tape the holder to the wall until dry

In 1982, I glued my porch posts together, made out of three pieces, full 2 x 6 x 36" popular and then doweled three sections with a 1 1/2" dowel to get a 9 foot porch post. Thirty three years ago and I still have some glue from then (sealed) used it recently and it was still good! What does that tell you? Wish I had bought more, was cheaper then. Clamped and let set for 24 hours. Looks as good today as it did then.

I think double sided tape would work, I bought some but haven't gotten around to applying it.

Not sure the adhesive would last on the wall too long, would need the spray adhesive to help out with the project.

I used 3M double sided sticky tape. The recent ones I have gotten gone with it. That allows you to stick it to any surface.

The post is made to attach a standard size mailbox. This pounds pretty standard so shd hold it. The problem would be screwing it into the braces to hold box in place if it's too wide to fit snugly against the braces.

How about heavy-duty twist ties? Glue wouldn't work, I don't believe. Or masonry nails? Does the high rise allow ribbons like that from a balcony?

Hi Janie, a wood post will do just fine as long as it in good condition and the post is set in the ground properly.

3M spray adhesive. You'll have to experiment to get the right amount. Too much will make it splotchy too little and it won't stick

It is up to you. I used a 4 X 4 wooden post that is working quite well. Best wishes.

Try SCHERING-PLOUGH NO POST CUSHION GRIP ADHESIVE 1 OZ $4.60 + $1.99 shipping sold by AmericanWholesale. It's better than ProSoft.

I'd probably go with a construction type adhesive such as liquid nails for something that heavy. This glue is great but it is VERY thin.

The post caps are just a tiny bit larger than 3.625" x 3.625". They are intended to be glued on the post with construction adhesive, "liquid Nails" or something similar.
