How to Choose the Right House Sign for Your Home
Picking the perfect house sign can feel a little overwhelming — especially with so many sizes, styles and materials to choose from. But don’t stress — we’re breaking it down to help you choose a sign that suits your home, layout, and personal style.
Whether you’re after a subtle upgrade or a bold front entrance moment, we’ve got you covered.
1. Consider Your Space
Before anything else, take a look at the spot where your house number will go. Is it a rendered wall? A fence panel? A letterbox?
If you're working with a narrow space like a gate post or letterbox, a slim house number strip sign (200x55mm) is a sleek and practical option. If you’ve got a larger wall or you’re further back from the street, something like our extra-large acrylic house number sign (600x300mm) might be a better fit.
2. Statement or Subtle?
Do you want to make a bold first impression? Or would you prefer something minimal and understated?
- For clean, modern homes, a round acrylic house number plaque is a perfect blend of form and function.
- If you want something unique or beachy, our ocean theme house sign adds personality without going overboard.
- And if you need something totally outside the box, we can create a custom house sign just for you.
3. Choose Your Colours & Fonts
All our acrylic house number signs are made with two layers — a top plate and a backing plate. This gives you contrast and customisation. Whether you’re into monochrome, bold brights, or soft neutrals, there’s a combo for every style.
We also offer nine different font styles, from modern minimal to bold and character-filled. Pair that with left, centred, or right alignment and you’ve got a fully personalised look.
4. Think About Visibility
If your home is set back from the road, or you get a lot of deliveries, visibility matters. A larger size like 400x200mm or 600x300mm ensures your number is easy to read at a glance.
Need something small and tidy? Our 300x200mm two-line house number signs are popular for townhouses, villas, and compact facades.
5. Mounting & Installation
We don’t supply mounting hardware — and honestly, it’s better that way. Most of our customers opt for high-quality outdoor mounting tape, which keeps the sign flush to your wall or fence without visible fixings. For something more permanent, clear silicone adhesive also does the trick.
All signs come with a protective film, and installation is as easy as peel, stick, and press.
