Your New Aluminum Number Sign Is Designed To Resist:

Water will roll right off your sign not causing any damage. Even many years after installation your sign will look new!

Cold, Ice & Snow

Our signs are made and tested in Ontario, Canada and they can hold up to harsh Canadian winters.

High Winds

We use premium quality fasteners which ensure that your number sign will remain firmly held in place without issue.

Rust & Corrosion

Your sign is made of clear coated aluminum plate with stainless steel fasteners for incredible corrosion resistance.

Mold & Mildew

With basic maintenance (wipe with a cloth and soapy warm water) formation of mold or mildew is very unlikely.

Dirt, Dust & Grime

The industrial clear coat we use helps reject dirt and grime and makes cleaning as easy as a quick pass with a cloth.

Impact Damage

When the clear coat is fully cured its designed to protect against dents, scuffs and small to moderate impacts.

Browse And Pick The Options You Like Best:​

Ottawa house signs offers premium stainless steel thumb screws and aluminum stand-offs that not only look great but ensure your sign stays securely in place years to come. Many of our clients prefer a minimalist style without visible fasteners, we have a range of options for everyone!

Check out our most-popular options to speed up your checkout:

Fastener delete, no extra stand-offs, magnetic cleat hardware, numbers with street name, horizontal positioning with no LED backlighting.

Thumb Screw Delete

Deleting fasteners on your number sign can have a significant impact on how it looks. If you’d prefer not to have visible fasteners we will use hidden threaded rods and stand offs to keep everything firmly in place.

Clients love the look of our high-end thumb screws, but many prefer to shift the design focus and have less visible elements.

Aluminum Stand-Offs

Stand-offs can be added between your sign and the wall to create a sleek, contemporary floating appearance. This can add a different dimension and level of depth to your sign and change the aesthetic.

In some cases stand-offs improve the look but in most cases the sign looks better mounted flush. It depends on a home-by-home basis.

Installation Hardware

Magnetic French Cleats: This innovative installation system has several advantages. Most importantly, it’s easy to install and the sign can be mounted and dismounted for cleaning thanks to powerful magnets.

Threaded Rod Pins: This system requires much more accuracy and precision than cleats. We don’t recommend using pins to mount your sign unless you need stand-offs to space the sign away from the wall.

Different Text Option Styles

Numbers Only: Perfect for those who want their house numbers to stand out boldly on the sign. This choice enhances visibility and elegance without extra text, offering an uncluttered, yet sophisticated design.

Numbers With Street Name: Make it easier for guests and deliveries to locate your home accurately combining function and style. Including your street name will enhance the signs functional impact.

Horizontal Or Vertical Placement

Horizontal Address Signs: This classic option is ideal for most homes because it simply looks more better in the majority of spaces. These types of designs can also use longer addresses more comfortably.

Vertical Address Signs: These signs are ideal for homes with limited horizontal space. This layout gives your address an eye catching presence especially in narrow entryways or on wall pillars.

Explore Custom Mounting Options

Your new address numbers don’t have to be wall mounted by the front door. Sometimes you need a second sign mounted closer to the street. If you’d like to discuss custom mounting send us a message.

Our custom mounting options include: armor stone mounting, post mounting, hang mounting using chains and integrated mounting (attaching your sign to a mailbox or fence panel).

Sign LED Backlighting

A backlit house number sign is an elegant upgrade that can make your sign more attractive and gives it a high-end luster .

It’s a great way to add a modern touch, increase night time curb appeal and make sure your new address sign stands out.

The soft glow creates an inviting atmosphere and highlights the design of your sign making it a beautiful focal point you will enjoy.

BENEFITS OF A BACKLIT HOUSE NUMBER SIGN
A backlit sign is a welcoming beacon, guiding visitors to your door while creating a memorable and stunning first impression.
  • Enhanced visibility
  • Make your new sign more attractive
  • Makes your home address easier to identify
  • Sign backlighting can flow stylistically and compliment your exterior home lighting
  • Creates a high-end aesthetic for your sign
With powerful compact LEDs and a quality light diffuser a backlit sign can bring next level style to your home.
BACKLIGHTING VS OVERHEAD LIGHTING WHICH IS BEST?
If you want to get the most from your new house number sign then lighting is key. We can help you understand different lighting styles and discover which will work best to enhance the look of your sign. Backlighting: This lighting effect is designed to create a diffused ring of light from behind your sign which radiates outwards softly. It’s excellent at drawing attention to your sign, it acts as a focal point that immediately draws eyes and attention. Backlighting has moderate ability to light up the front of the sign, its primary purpose is to create a soft, attractive ring of light around the back of the sign. Overhead Lighting: This is a great option for homeowners who want radiant light beaming down onto the face of the sign, highlighting its brushed finish and augmenting the visibility of the address text. The whole purpose of overhead lighting is to light up the face of the sign and it works wonders to make the sign “POP!”. Both Are Fantastic Options: In fact, the ideal scenario in many cases is to have BOTH lighting styles as long as you match the light color. The overhead lighting brings out maximum visibility by illuminating the face of the sign. The Backlighting creates a circular lit up aura that beams out from behind the surface drawing in extra attention. If you have overhead lighting you don’t necessarily need backlighting, however they can both work very well in harmony and elevate the style of sign to the next level.
WARM OR COOL LEDS
We offer two distinct LED color options: Cold White at 6000K and Warm White at 3500K. Select the hue that best suits your home. You may want to consider the color of your current exterior lighting. Cold White LED Backlighting: This option is perfect for clients who want a high-contrast, professional look with maximum visibility. It offers a sharp, vivid, contemporary style. This option really highlights the stunning brushed aluminum finish of your sign. Warm White LED Backlighting: These LEDs add a soft, classic, yellow tinted glow to your address sign, creating a cozy, inviting ambiance. Your address sign will radiate a warmer, softer tone that’s comforting to your eyes.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
  • LED Strip: 4x8mm strip, silicone diffuser, IP67 waterproof, 24VDC, 120 LEDs/m SMD2835, 10W/m, 120 degree beam angle.
  • LED Driver: IP67 waterproof, input 110V-240V AC, output 24V DC, quality aluminum case, rated for -40 degree cold, multiple safety features (over-voltage, over-current, short-circuit, temperature protection), certified by CE, FCC, RoHS.
  • 2-Pin Quick Snap Connector: IP65 waterproof, copper pins, 5A / 24V DC capacity
  • Split Wire Loom Protector: Black PE conduit, braided sleeve, wear resistant, weather resistant
APPROPRIATE BACKLIT SIGN LOCATIONS
Did you know that backlighting your sign may limit where you can install it? Your sign must be installed in a location where you can tap into a nearby power source if you want to keep down costs. The most common locations to install your sign:
  • Right or left side of the garage door
  • Above the garage door
  • By the front door
  • On a pillar which has lighting installed (must have access hatch)
If you want to install a backlit sign in a custom location without a power source nearby please be aware an electrician might have to do substantial work. This is often worth it and can create a stunning result, but it’s important to budget and plan beforehand.
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
Please note that for safety and compliance with homeowners insurance policies, you’re required to get a licensed electrician to make the final connection from the LED driver to an existing circuit. This will cost approximately $125 in most cases if the preparation is done beforehand and all the wiring is already fed close to the power source. If you’re doing the installation yourself we will provide detailed step-by-step instructions to guide you along. If you opt for our installation service we set everything up so the electrician will have a fast and easy job!

Professional Ottawa Address Sign Installation Service​

Our team offers a professional number sign installation service designed to make the process quick and easy for you.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Place your order and check your email
  2. You must sign the installation paperwork we send to you, then we can arrange for an installation date.
  3. On the evening before the installation you will get a friendly email or text message reminder.
  4. Upon arrival we will let you know we’re on site. We start by carefully removing your old sign. If the holes from your old sign will be visible we will do our best to color match and patch the holes. Please be aware it’s not possible to get a flawless match but we can get very close! If the holes will be covered by the new sign we fill them with clear silicone caulking unless you request otherwise.
  5. The next step is to use a scanner that checks for wires or pipes around the installation location.
  6. Using a drill we will precisely make holes into your wall. Dust will be blown away from the location and the holes will be cleaned.
  7. From there we install your new custom address sign fastening it securely to the wall using specially designed magnetic cleats or our peg system. At the end of the work we do a thorough cleanup and will ask you to check out your new sign.
  8. Stand back and enjoy the results!

If this applies to you we need to know details about the mounting surface. If the surface isn’t flat you’ll potentially need stand-offs or other hardware we can ship with your sign. A good example of this is board and baton or uneven brick.

Absolutely not. Even the tax is included.

The only exceptions are:

  • If a custom mounting solution is required (generally this won’t cost extra, except in very rare cases).

    Our custom mounting options include: armor stone mounting, post mounting, hang mounting using chains and integrated mounting (attaching your sign to a mailbox or fence panel)

    If you require a custom mounting solution please contact us in advance before ordering.

  • If you have a LED backlit sign then you’ll be required to pay to have an electrician tap into your existing circuits.

When opting for our professional LED sign installation service, this is how the process looks:

  • We mount the sign as per usual
  • We run LED wiring through the wall
  • We waterproof the hole around the wiring
  • We then secure the LED power driver to the inside wall with screws and  apply clean cable management techniques to make sure the setup looks professional!

Once this prep work is complete, a licensed electrician will need to connect the LED driver to an existing electrical circuit, such as a garage light or outlet, which typically takes around 1 hour and is very straight forward.

This step is the client’s responsibility to arrange and pay for. You may contact your own electrician, or we can arrange for one to reach out to you if you’d prefer. Expect the cost to be around $125, in most cases its a very quick job because we have everything prepared for them.

For safety and compliance with Ontario homeowners insurance policies, you’re required to get a qualified electrician complete the final electrical connection. This ensures the installation meets all standards, maximizing both performance and safety.

A Brushed Aluminum Finish Is Classy, Attractive & Ultra-Modern

A brushed aluminum finish is a crowd favorite because it enhances the aesthetic of any home, whether it’s vintage, built in the 1980s, or a newly constructed ultra-modern house. A brushed finish is so popular, versatile and impressive we decided to use it exclusively!

1/4" 6061 Aluminum Plate

While other sign manufacturers use vinyl letters, thin aluminum sheet, or even worse: ACM panel (a combination of plastic and micro-thin aluminum) we opted to give our clients what they want: QUALITY.

Our aluminum plate is 1/4″ thick, you can see and feel the luxurious properties of our signs compared to other signs on the market. We truly spared no expense when designing our house number signs.

It takes longer to manufacture a sign but our clients love the result!

Manufactured By Professionals With Precision And Care

When enhancing the curb appeal of your home every minor detail matters. Our standards dictate that each sign be crafted carefully with precision and care. This ensures a stunning result, every time!

Industrial Grade Paints: Vivid Appearance, Exceptional Durability

High quality paint is critical to making a high quality number sign that won’t fade or peel. We spared no expense picking the best paints that will keep your sign in excellent condition for many years to come.

Our paint and color recommendations for your sign:

  • Matte black (95% of our clients prefer matte black)
  • Satin clear coat (very low gloss)
  • If you want a color besides black please contact us. Black paint offers the best contrast and visibility and a timeless look.

We’re open to making signs using custom colors but we should discuss the project first to ensure you’ll be thrilled with the end result.

Matte paints have no gloss and don’t reflect light, they absorb light, which creates a soft, elegant and modern finish.

On the majority of homes we mount horizontal number signs. Our small signs are designed mostly for townhouses where the front of the home is very close to the street. If your residence can fit a large sign it will generally look better and offer superior visibility. 95% of our clients put up horizontal signs, however if your home needs to mount a sign onto a thin column or post, then a vertical sign will work perfectly.

Absolutely! The signs can be mounted on just about any exterior surface (hardy board, aluminum siding, brick, stucco, vinyl, etc).

No, we do not offer any kind of acrylic or plastic house number signs. Acrylic house numbers have several drawbacks.

They can fade after just 4-5 years, which is inconsistent with our promise of a lifetime warranty.

Additionally,  manufacturing those large acrylic letters by cutting them out from a sheet generates nearly 50% material waste, making it a less eco-friendly option.

We take pride in producing the most durable, high-end house number signs on the market. Our signs are crafted from aluminum and luxurious strains of wood, ensuring longevity, stunning visual appeal, and minimal environmental impact. 

Tools you’ll need depend on the surface you’re mounting to. On a typical installation these tools are required:

  • Hammer drill
  • Masonry drill bits
  • Painters tape
  • Silicone caulking

However requirements can change on a case-by-case basis.

We provide all necessary hardware (mounting system, screws, anchors, etc)

Depending on the surface, we will use different compounds. We may apply colored silicone, concrete repair compounds, wood filler, etc.

Finally we can apply paint or granules to attempt to color match the surface.

Keep in mind no color match will ever be 100% perfect and seamless, but our professional team is trained to get as close as possible.

All our signs are designed to look great universally, so it ultimately comes down to personal preference. The only exception is “Optical Aesthetics” which was designed to look best on new contemporary homes.

Our most popular signs are modernity blackout and luxury woodcraft.

If you’re having trouble visualizing which sign would complement your home best, feel free to reach out to our customer support team.

Simply send us a clear, high-resolution front-facing image of your home along with a description of the signs you’re most interested in. Our signage consultants will be happy to provide you with mockups showing how the signs will look on your home!

You can schedule your installation time after your purchase. We will reach out to you to work out an installation date. If you require high-priority manufacturing and installation, please contact our customer support team, and we will do our best to accommodate your request!
