Distinctions 843145 Black Flush-Mount 4-Inch House Number 5

It’s very simple and just what I wanted. However I’m not sure how it will hold up in weather but it’s fine for it’s price. Installation can be hell if you don’t have a drill and you put it in a tough spot like a column or brick like I did.

The overall quality is decent. They are about 1/4-inch-deep (not measured with a ruler, just eyeballing it). I purchased to replace some cheap vinyl numbers installed by the builder that were starting to disintegrate due to lots of direct sunlight. See photos.So far the numbers have been installed for six months. The numbers were kind of pricy so here is my plan for longevity…Toss the screws that came with the numbers. They are just painted and will begin to rust. A screwdriver will chip off the paint on the screws by just screwing the numbers in place. I replaced the original screws with brass screws (no rust). Thee brass screws are not black, but this is my trade off.If you plan to use brass screws or the original screws drill pilot holes first. Brass is softer than steel and the supplied steel screws are not the best quality screws.How long will the paint on the numbers last? Good question. If and when the paint begins to fade or oxidize, the numbers can be easily removed and painted since they are screwed in place. A can of quality spray paint and clear coat if properly applied may just last longer the original paint. If you are really picky about corosion paint both sides of the numbers

We like this design much better than the "scroll" type letters. The letters themselves are good quality with smooth edges. The included screws are very soft and the heads strip out very easily, I'd recommend picking up some better quality screws. I'm happy with the letters and would buy again.

I ordered 2 numerals to place over my back door. I am constantly having deliveries to my back sliders and this should help to quickly identify my home! This came with the screws and was super easy to put up. And the price was right.

I bought three of my four numbers elsewhere and this matched my other numbers. Perfect size. Comes with screws for attaching to wood. Easy install.

These numbers work well for me and stand out quite nicely against the lighter paint color of the installation area. Would have been 5 stars but one of the 4 numbers I bought was missing a screw.

Good and easy to install. The black paint does come off the screws when you install, which I wish wasn't the case, but it does its job.

Nice metal construction. The packaging works great as a multi digit template for spacing.- Align your numbers while still in the package. You may have to make a slight adjustment if the number is not packaged perfectly level. I adjusted two of mine (1 and 7) and secured in the new position with tape over the the package plastic - not taping to the metal number itself.- Once in place, securely tape each package together on both sides with clear packaging tape.- Level and temporarily secure the numbers to your mounting surface. I used a couple of wood screws (barely screwed in) to my woodgrain resin board and filled the shallow holes with white silicone. Step away and satisfy yourself with the placement.- Drill the pilot holes (I used a 1/16 bit) directly through the packages.- Mounting was a breeze. I am not a great spacing "eye baller" and I'm happy with the results using this method.
