Particularly in highly residential areas, it can be prudent to number your house. This makes it easier for visitors and postmen to find you. In many areas, houses often look very similar, so in order to make it stand out, a house number is helpful.
House number signs can be attached directly to the house itself. Also known as façade signs, this number can be affixed near to the front door or even on the door itself so that visitors know that they have the correct house. On occasion though, if the house is set back from the road, it can be worth it to place a house number at the beginning of the driveway as well. In this instance, some people will add the street name underneath just to erase any potential confusion whatsoever.
House numbers in different materials
There are no strict rules when it comes to house numbers other than the number should be large enough to be read by someone driving or walking past. Colour, font style, sign shape and other general design features are entirely up to the homeowners themselves and are usually determined by the overall style of the house exterior and that of the neighbourhood as a whole. We offer house number signs in different materials.
House number signs
A sign marking the number of a building is probably the most common number sign. These are also sometimes called façade signs or house number plaques, as they are attached to the front of the building. House number signs are common in the UK. On our Design Page you can design your unique house number sign exactly as you want, with your choice of material, typeface and colour.
Acrylic house number signs
Acrylic signs are among our more exclusive range. The material consists of a solid plexiglass plate that can be ordered with a transparent, frosted or coloured background. It is common to attach an acrylic house number sign with a wall attachment so that the sign stands out slightly from the wall. That gives the sign a modern and stylish touch. It is equally possible to attach the sign with screws. On the Design Page you can design gorgeous modern acrylic house number signs entirely in your own style, with or without pictures.
