Distinctions 844712 Upgraded 5 Black 5 Floating House Number 2

Love these numbers. They are large, easy to read and give a nice contemporary feel to the house. I float mounted them so light can shine behind them. You can also flush mount them.

We got our house painted and needed some updated house numbers. These took a little time to put up but wasn’t unreasonably difficult. Love how they look!

The peg to make the number “floating” when mounted broke off in the number 4. Very annoying.

Love these! Very affordable and easy to install. I drilled into a wooden pole and I don’t think the caulk is necessary.

Great quality and love the design!

I really like these. They look so nice on our recently painted home.

Read a bunch of reviews on these numbers before installing. They’re a little complicated but so affordable and look really nice. The first thing I did was screw the bolts into the back of the numbers, BY HAND. I screwed them in till just tight. I didn’t want to overtighten and have the bolt break. Then, I laid the numbers over top of the number templates, and marked new holes. They don’t line up perfectly because the screws aren’t straight. Next, tape the numbers together so they’re spaced perfectly. Tape to spot where you want the numbers to go. Poke holes in each marked spot on the templates. Drill 1/8 drill bit hole NOT the 1/4” they recommend. Gently push the numbers into their respective drilled holes. The 1/4 hole will be too large, 1/8, makes it perfectly snug so we didn’t need glue/caulk. Numbers went in with gentle force and none of the screws broke for me. Good Luck!

Look nice, installation is easy enough but make sure you line the numbers up yourself. The bolts are always a little crooked which can make the alignment off. So mark those on the template before you space them out on the wall or surface you’re going to install them on. Clearly there were quality issues early on but these newer ones are solidly made and the bolts are strong and the numbers themselves are solidly made. Do not overtightrn the bolts when you put them in...tighten only by hand, they do not need to be very tight. They will stay put. Add a touch of adhesive to it if you’re concerned about how well they are connected but don’t tighten the bolt into the number with anything except your hand.

Stylish and modern. Made to last. My neighbors all want me to build their mailbox now!

I liked the shape of the numbers, so ordered a set. Unfortunately, in order to mount it, one must drill 3 holes per number in the side of the surface...and the holes show behind the number. Not pretty. Too late to undo it, as the holes are there! I think it would show worse if one chose the floating method, rather than flush. Oh, and dont tighten the screws into the numbers more than hand tight...theyll snap off. No way to pull the bit out of the number. I just added more silicone to that area, and hope that the other 2 screws keep it snug. All of that aside, the numbers are very simple yet stylish and easy to read.
