Make your address unforgettable with precision-cut metal house numbers.
Custom metal house number signs from Metal Marvel start at $99 AUD. Laser-cut from your choice of mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminium in a range of fonts and sizes up to 600×1200 mm.
Choose a font that complements your home's architecture. Modern homes suit geometric sans-serifs. Heritage properties look stunning with classic serifs. For maximum legibility from the kerb, avoid overly thin weights or highly decorative scripts.
Numbers should be at least 100 mm tall for standard suburban blocks. For corner blocks or properties set back from the road, 150–200 mm tall numbers ensure drivers and delivery services can read your address at a glance.
The most effective placements are beside the front door, on a gate pillar, or on a fence facing the street. Stand-off mounts add depth and shadow, making the sign pop against render, brick, or timber. Ensure the sign is well lit for nighttime visibility.
High contrast is key. Dark signs on light walls (or vice versa) are easiest to read. Avoid placing signs behind dense foliage. If your home is on a busy road, consider a larger size or adding your street name for extra clarity.
