A mounting device that provides a stable platform and an enclosed junction box for securing an electrical fixture or any standard wall-mounted electrical device to an outdoor structure. The mounting device includes a base member and a post member. The base member is secured to the outdoor structure and the post member secured to the base to create a weatherproof housing. The junction box includes an access port that allows pulling of cable and space for completing wiring connections within the box. Any standard wall-mounted electrical device may be installed in the junction box. After installing the electrical device, the standard faceplate for the installed device is used to close the access port and thereby seal the electrical device from rain and moisture. The post member will also accept a standard electrical fixture such as a light.
