Distinctions 843255 House Adhesive Plaque Number 1, 4", Aged Bronze

These are nice thick numbers with a brushed bronze finish and no unsightly mounting holes. However, when I flipped them over I was surprised by the tiny pieces of mounting tape on the 3-4 raised areas. They didn't use even the limited real estate available, but I thought, well, maybe it's some new super-holding tape. I pressed them firmly onto the matching new placard and installed it in place.One of the numbers fell off that night, which I found it in the bushes. I was going to take them all off and use my go-to clear silicone, but since I had already thrown out the spacing template, I just remounted the one for now.Bottom line: Nice looking metal numbers, but may require additional sticky stuff to hold. Hang on to templates for a while.

These have a pretty nice finish and match the stained bronze look that matches the same finish of most door handles and locks. They look good but the adhesive is not nearly strong enough to hold. After I pulled them out I used a strong adhesive glue around the edges but some of it got pressed out as there aren’t a lot of holding points on the back (it’s hollowed out). I don’t really mind as my door is in rough shape as you can see, but I would be careful with the adhesive if you are looking for a cleaner look. Maybe fill in the back with some kind of filler or foam, then apply the adhesive.

The adhesive for these left something to be desired. Numbers kept falling off (followed the directions to the T) & even kept it indoors laying flat for a couple weeks to ensure that the heat of the summer had no ill effects on the adhesive curing. Had to use epoxy to finally get the numbers to stay put. It IS classier looking than what we previously had, looks sharp on the house. Wish the adhesive that came with the product was more useful and I didn't have to purchase something else to "make it work".

I have to say it doesn't look like aged bronze. It looks more like nickel-plated it states aged bronze in the purchasing info but on the actual package it comes in and says bronze not aged like the purchasing info. like I said it doesn't even look Bronze it looks like it's nickel plated.

I ended up buying these because I didn't want to go through the hassle of drilling through my steel siding and then have holes there if I ever wanted to move/remove the numbers. They were ridiculously easy to apply and they've stayed up for months through high heat, rain, and high winds/tornadoes. I put them up in the spring so I'm not sure how the adhesive will do in the winter, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. The have a nice look to them and are easily visible from the street. Even though they are light-weight, they look very high quality. I would absolutely buy these again or recommend them to a friend.

These numbers stick well enough; after a month of wide ranging weather conditions (i.e. temps from low 30's to mid 80's, rain, wind, etc.) they are still sticking to my painted wood 6x6. My only complaint is that the finish fades pretty quick: I have four numbers, and the top two get shaded by my roof extension, but the bottom two get a few hours of full sun; so now, my bottom two almost look like they were antique nickel/pewter, while my top two still look like oil rubbed bronze. However, for a 1/4 of the cost I would have spent on other options, these work great for me.
