Large Metallic House Sign (Portrait)

The warmth of brushed gold, copper or stainless in a tall format with real presence, cut and finished in our own studio. A modern address sign for a pillar or an entry wall where the number should be read from the street, not hunted for.

This large portrait format (250 × 375 mm) stacks your street name over two lines beneath the number, at a size that holds its own against a wide façade.

A brushed metallic face

The face is a UV-stable, exterior-grade acrylic with a genuine brushed metallic surface. The texture runs through the material, so it catches the light the way brushed metal does instead of sitting flat like a printed or vinyl sign. Your numbers and street name are cut from that face on our own laser — not printed on it, not stuck to it. The result is real depth and a crisp, high-contrast read at any hour.

Choose your finish

• Brushed Silver — stainless look, suits cool greys, white render and black trim
• Brushed Gold — warm antique gold, made for brick, timber and dark charcoal
• Brushed Copper — the one people ask for by name
• Black Matte — a matte black plate with your address in brushed silver, gold or copper. The quietest of the four, and the sharpest contrast
• No Base — the cut characters only, applied straight to your surface for a floating look, in any of the three brushed finishes

How each finish is built

The cut follows the finish — you don't choose it separately, and the live preview shows you exactly what you're getting.

• Silver, gold and copper — in-depth. Your address is cut clean through the brushed face to the black plate behind it, so the characters read dark against the metal and the sign has real depth
• Black Matte — raised. The characters are cut from the brushed sheet and sit proud of a matte black plate, in silver, gold or copper. The sharpest contrast in the range
• No Base — single layer. The cut characters on their own, no plate. They arrive on a stencil layout so you can place them accurately, then peel it away

Eight fonts to choose from

Set your address in our signature New Classic, the typeface used across the letterbox range, or pick from seven others: Montserrat, Bebas Neue, Josefin Sans, Typo Round, Typewriter, Limelight and Dancing Script. Anything from squared-off and architectural to a soft script. Try them in the live preview and see your own address in each one.

Divider line

Add an optional line between your number and street name at no extra cost, and see it on your sign before you order.

Live preview

Type your street number and your two address lines and watch them appear on the sign as you go. Try finishes, fonts, corners and the divider line before you commit. Every layout is then checked and adjusted by hand before it goes on the laser — the preview is your guide, our eyes are the final word.

Best suited for

250 × 375 mm sits well on these Dagood letterboxes:

• Apex Fence/Brick Parcel Letterbox
• Plaza II Freestanding Parcel Letterbox
• Flint Wall Mount Parcel Letterbox

It is just as much at home on a rendered pillar, a gate post or a tall panel beside the door. Measure your flat area first and leave a small border for the cleanest proportions.

Mounting

• VHB double-sided tape, included — the structural-grade acrylic foam tape used to bond building panels, not craft tape. Mounts the sign flush to the surface
• Floating standoffs — stainless standoffs that hold the sign off the wall for a shadow line, in black, silver or white
• Invisible standoffs — the same raised mount with the hardware hidden behind the sign
• Suits most flat surfaces: rendered walls, fences, brick, pillars and letterboxes

FAQs

Is this real metal?

No — it's an acrylic with a brushed metallic finish. You get the look of brushed metal in a material that's lighter, easier to mount and made to order in any layout you like. If you want genuine metal, our 316 stainless range is laser etched from real marine-grade steel.

Which portrait size should I choose?

This one is for a pillar or an entry wall read from the street. For a letterbox or a narrower panel, the medium portrait at 200 × 300 mm is the usual choice.

Will the colour look the same in real life?

Brushed finishes pick up their surroundings, so no screen quite captures them. Use the preview for layout and spacing rather than as an exact colour match.

Can I order without a backing plate?

Yes — choose No Base and you'll get the cut characters only, with a stencil to place them.

Do you check the design before cutting?

Every one. Balance, spacing and accuracy are reviewed by hand.
