What Customers Are Saying
The product has a modern, sleek design that many customers find appealing. However, the quality of the included mounting hardware is a major concern, as it is reported to be delicate and prone to breaking during installation. Some suggest using alternative mounting methods like silicone caulk or industrial glue to secure the numbers, as the provided hardware is unreliable. Despite the hardware issues, most customers are satisfied with the overall appearance of the numbers, especially when used with exterior lighting. Careful installation, such as using a smaller drill bit, is recommended to avoid the hardware breaking.

Easy exterior update
Would RecommendUpdated appearance with easy to read house letters. Fedex no longer has an excuse to deliver to the wrong house!
Bolts are brittle and break easily.
Would Not RecommendThe numbers look nice and installation is easy, but the bolts are extremely brittle. With little force, they can easily break when you are inserting them into the wood.
Worst home number product available
Would Not RecommendHow these are still in production and available to the consumer is mind boggling. The pot metal screws snapped off in my hand before even going in the holes. How hard is it to have actual metal? Get rid of this garbage from your store! Do not buy!
Beautiful finish
Would RecommendI love the finish on these house letters. The letter format is crisp and sharp, perhaps a little small, depends on how far away they will be viewed. I also like the offset option, should look 3D. I haven't installed them yet but attachment looks easy, I will probably use a little epoxy to secure them. I like the clean look and the finish matches my other finishes. Some people may think it looks commercial but that is the look i like. I've been looking for new letters for quite awhile, thanks ...
Low quality fasteners...
Would Not RecommendI thought I could figure out a way to install without the fasteners breaking. I was wrong. I drilled the holes in the wood mounting bracket using a drill press to make sure the were all in the same plane and vertical. Did not help. The manufacturing process of the numbers is imperfect so the fasteners are not 90 degrees to the numbers and as they are being inserted into the drilled holes the pressure will break off at least one of the fasteners if not more. Not pleased.

Looks great
Would RecommendThe install template they provide is necessary and a huge help. I taped the templates of numbers of my address together making the install clean. Several suggestions: 1 - It would be nice if they provided the caulk/glue with the number to complete the install. 2 - Do not put too much of the caulking into the drilled holes because overfilling will cause expansion during drying to push the address numbers out of their holes. 3 - Hand tighten the pins into the back of the number. Using a wrench ...
I've install these on 10 houses
Would RecommendI've installed about 100 of these numbers and never had a problem. I screwed the studs in by hand and didn't over tighten and used the template that came with the numbers before installing them. Looks great!
Love them!
Would RecommendUpgraded old dated numbers for more modern ones. Love the size and font!
