Weatherproof

These oversized address numbers deliver exceptional visibility—even on façades set far back from the street or on modern homes with generous proportions. Their bold scale and natural shadow effect create a strong presence upon arrival. Made from ACP and designed for straightforward installation, they offer striking visual impact and clear readability from a distance.

Product Details

• Integrated threaded rods
Each number is fitted with 3" aluminum threaded rods, ensuring secure anchoring on most exterior surfaces. Their length is specifically adapted to oversized formats to provide stable, long-lasting support.

• Rear spacers
The spacers measure 0.25" in height and securely connect the rods to each number. By setting the spacer slightly away from the surface, the 3D effect can be enhanced. This added depth highlights the oversized format and creates a subtle shadow effect.

• Deep and stable anchoring
The anchoring system is designed to support the weight and size of large-format numbers. Once set into the surface, the rods provide a firm hold that withstands weather exposure, wind, and natural building movement.

Durable, weather-resistant material

• Architectural grade ACP
Our numbers are made from architectural-grade ACP (aluminum composite panel), composed of two robust aluminum sheets bonded to a polyethylene core. This multi-layer material is rigid, stable, and perfectly suited for outdoor environments. It does not rust and maintains its structural integrity over time.

• Resistance to the elements
ACP retains its shape even under constant exposure to the elements. It naturally resists UV exposure, freeze–thaw cycles, moisture, heat, and significant temperature fluctuations—without warping or cracking.

• Durable finish
The surface remains clean and uniform season after season. The material does not fade and requires minimal maintenance—simple cleaning with mild soap is enough to maintain its original appearance.

Installation options

• Standard installation
Standard installation uses 3" aluminum threaded rods mounted on the back of each number, providing a secure hold on most exterior surfaces. A complete installation kit is included: all-purpose drill bit, small tube of silicone, adhesive level, and mini marker. The positioning template allows for precise alignment, whether installed horizontally or vertically.

• Magnetic installation*
For steel surfaces, the numbers can be made with stronger bonded magnets to support their larger size. This option is custom-made and is therefore a final sale.

* No positioning template is required for the magnetic installation and the 3D effect is reduced, since the numbers are affixed directly to the coating.

Available characters

• Numbers only
Contemporary Large Format is available exclusively in individual digits, from 0 to 9.

Letters are not available in Large Format, but they are available in our regular sizes of 6'', 9'' and 12''.

Measures

• Total measurement
The total space required for your address is automatically displayed under the "Enter your address" field according to your choices using the built-in calculator.

• Number height
The height indicated (18'' or 24'') is approximate. Each number has a slightly different height in order to respect the typography. It is normal for some characters to appear higher or lower when compared individually: once the full address is installed, the rendering remains uniform and balanced.

• Line width
The width of the line is adapted to the oversized format to ensure maximum readability at long distances.
18'': Approx. 2 1/8''
24'': approx. 2 9/16''

FAQ

Does it rust over time?

No. The numbers are made from ACP, a material composed of two aluminum sheets bonded to a polyethylene core, which does not rust. Unlike wrought iron or steel, it requires no anti-rust treatment and does not degrade when exposed to the elements. ACP is designed to remain stable and durable, even in large formats.
Ideal if you are looking for a sustainable address that keeps its appearance throughout the seasons.

How do I maintain my door number?

ACP requires very little maintenance and retains its color over time without the need for repainting. Occasional cleaning with soapy water is sufficient to remove dust. For more stubborn marks, a soft cloth lightly dampened with rubbing alcohol works well. If your décor changes, the surface can also be repainted using spray paint.
A great choice if you want an address that does not require maintenance.

Can I put these numbers on a rock or a menhir?

Yes, it’s possible. Many customers have done this, and it looks especially elegant at the entrance of a long driveway. You’ll need to choose the standard installation method.

Drilling into rock requires a specialized masonry bit and a concrete or SDS-type drill. We also recommend allowing approximately 2 feet of clearance to account for snow accumulation.
Ideal if you want a solid address even on a rock.

My sidind is uneven, how to do it?

If your wall is highly irregular, you can add 4" threaded rods to achieve the required depth. Good to know: the rods included with your numbers already provide 3" of depth, which helps compensate for many common variations found in textured surfaces. This option helps you correct wall irregularities and ensure a straight, solid, and well-aligned installation.

A Practical Guide to Choosing the Right House Numbers

Choosing the right format
For large façades or homes set farther back from the street, the oversized numbers from the Contemporary collection provide clear visibility upon arrival. The 18" format can also work well on more standard surfaces for one- or two-digit addresses. The 24" format is ideal for very wide walls, recessed entries, architectural buildings seeking stronger visual impact, or commercial spaces.
Ideal if you want to highlight the architecture of your façade.
Choosing the right color
To maximize readability, choose a color that contrasts sharply with your sidind. Black works great on light or textured surfaces, while white or brushed aluminum stands out on dark faces. White can also be painted to perfectly match your décor or company branding .
Make the right choice of colour if you want a storefront that stands out.
Choosing the right type of installation
Magnetic installation is ideal for smooth steel surfaces, such as garage doors or metal panels. However, it is not suitable for ribbed or corrugated metal, which is commonly used on industrial buildings.

Standard installation works for the vast majority of residential exterior surfaces, including brick, wood, CanExel siding, vinyl, and fiber cement. Perfect if you are looking for an installation adapted to your façade, regardless of the material.
