Metal house number signs are visible from a further distance when properly placed. The first key to visibility is selecting the right size metal numbers for your house. Walk out to the middle of the street or path in front of your house. The spot you choose needs to be where guests or passersby might first glance at your house to find the address.
Measure the distance from your doorstep to this point. For distances up to 100 ft., house numbers should be at least 3”-4” high. For every 50 ft. further away, you need to add another inch in height. The stroke width of the numbers should be a minimum of ½”. The thicker the stroke width, the higher the visibility from a distance.
However, to ensure the most visibility from a further distance, choose the highest contrasting color to adhere your metal house numbers to so they will stand out even more. For example, metal or metallic-finished numbers will pop out from a white backdrop of a porch wall.
To increase their visibility on overcast days or nighttime, add lighting just above the numbers. Another option is to back-light the numbers, or you can spotlight the sign with a solar outdoor light placed in the ground or mounted on a porch post.
When hanging up your house number, a common concern is how to evenly space the individual numbers on the outside of your home. You can solve this problem by measuring an equal distance between numbers and using a level to ensure they are straight. However, a more straightforward solution is hanging metal house number signs instead.
Metal number signs eliminate the need to space individual numbers because they are made of one solid piece of metal. Your house number is cut out of the metal, leaving you with one sign to hang. Metal number signs come in various shapes, sizes, and metals, and hanging them is as easy as hanging a painting or framed photograph. Simple and stylish, a metal house number sign adds a modern touch to your home’s exterior.
Yes, you can add accent lighting to metal house number signs. You can either opt to backlight your numbers with a flat LED panel, or install coordinating, aesthetic, and more noticeable light just above or below your metal numbers—though we’d still recommend LEDs for ease of use.
If you have space available, you can train a spotlight from above or below to fall upon your house letters for an interesting visual effect.
