PRODUCT DETAILS
Production: Each personalised house sign is made to order, printed on HD aluminium using dye sublimation. As the image is locked into the surface of the aluminium, then sealed to make it UV resistant, your sign is highly weatherproof, unlikely to fade, and the numbers/letters won't peel off.
We give a five-year guarantee for our signs, but they should last many years more.
Shape: Our rectangular signs are either landscape or portrait as guided by the design and have rounded corners for safe handling. We also offer small squares and our popular circular designs.

We can do many larger sizes in either rectangular or round shape - please send us a message and we'll give you a quote.
Personalisation: We can include your house numbers, house names, number and street name, or any other combination. Use CAPITALS or Upper Lower case exactly as you want any letters to appear on the sign. Alternative wording, such as ‘Welcome to the Smiths’, ‘Please ring’, ‘Love’ or virtually any other text can be included, but the more wording you want, the smaller it will appear. We will not reproduce any wording or images that could be considered offensive.
Fonts: Each design has a specified font that complements the image, but we can use alternatives if you tell us what you would like.
Special bespoke signs or wall plaques: if you don’t see exactly what you want in our product listings, then please contact us and we’ll do a design especially for you. You might find inspiration on our Totally Bespoke page, but don't restrict your imagination to what's been done before. We’ve done circular signs as big as 50 cm diameter and lots of different sizes. We can also reproduce your own designs and photographs, and can do commercial business signs too.
Mounting: No DIY skills are required to put up your sign, nor ugly screws that spoil the design. We supply Velcro pads* that will stick to most flat or slightly bumpy surfaces, such as wood and brick. For less even surfaces, such as pebbledash or fencing, then a mounting board should be attached first.
* For orders from outside the UK, we regret we do not supply pads unless requested. Shipping charges are reduced to allow for this. Recommendations on suitable fixings will be supplied.
Please note that the velcro pads we supply are not recommended for use on uPVC (vinyl) doors and panels, but we believe there are alternative adhesives and pads available, Drilling holes in the sign has been done succesfully by some customers although it may result in chips in the surface.
Care of your sign: Please only use a dry lint-free cloth to dust your sign and rub off fingermarks, with cold water for more stubborn stains. Avoid furniture polish, glass cleaners or other abrasive cleaners that might damage the smooth surface.
Firmer grip: Should you want added security and are confident you won’t replace the sign for a long time, then attach your sign using stronger adhesive pads or strips available from DIY outlets.
Wall plaques for inside walls: we recommend you use Command strips or similar rather than Velcro pads, which may damage plaster work. We currently do not supply these with your order.
Replacing your sign: Want a temporary Christmas or party sign? Moving house? Or a new style? Simple – just pull the existing sign away, and replace, using complementary hook or loop pads.
Recycling: At the end of its life, your sign can be placed in the metals waste stream for recycling,as it is 99% aluminium. But please remove the sticky pads first.
