Hy-KoPRODUCTS CO FM-6/2 FLOATING MOUNT HOUSE NUMBER 6" BLACK # 2

I liked the design and reviews helped me make a decision.I would like to add though that if you're installing the numbers horizontally, it may require additional prep time, as in how far you want the numbers from each other especially when you have different thickness numbers like mine. Also, some numbers are taller then others and it's important that you first align all numbers the way you want it with screws attached. Take pictures to confirm the placement. Then after they are placed the right way, poke the guides in the right places and leave the guide papers on the screws. Then tape all the guides together and use the complete template guide to level it on the wall. Then after it's leveled, tape it to the wall and drill. This will ensure that all the numbers are leveled and properly aligned among each other.If your wall has texture, your bit may slip a little, something to keep in mind.The installation itself is super easy. Measuring and alignment took 5 times longer.

I love them! Great quality!

I purchased four numbers for our house. My husband installed them with ease. The numbers are sturdy, have weight, and are a quality product. I highly recommend. Most importantly, they are attractive and elevate the curb appeal of our home.

Such a small change for such a great improvement. Matches the Spanish style of our house. Changed out our lights too. The area that we had to attach them to is made of foam and the threads on the mounting screws really gripped the numbers into it. I didn't use the spacers because I find that shadow can make the number hard to read. I tapped them in so they're flush. Nice heavy weight to them.

I'd been looking at various address numbers for a while, it's crazy how expensive something this simple can be so I was glad to see these at a fair price and so I ordered them. Overall I am pleased with the result, however... the instructions, as others have noted, are completely incorrect when it comes to the pilot holes. I ended up having to use a 1/4" pilot hole to accommodate the included anchors. If you follow the instructions there is no way that you'll get the anchors into the mounting surface. Another word about the anchors, they are very brittle and when you use your mallet to place the numbers its all but guaranteed that you will break the outer flanges, this isn't a big deal but it makes the installation look rough so I ended up running a very thin line of caulk around each anchor to clean it up a bit. It ends up looking much better. Others have mentioned the silver spacers, I agree, if they were black they would look a little better but its not enough of an issue to worry about. Another issue people seemed to have was related to the template, I found they matched perfectly so no issue here. Ultimately these are an affordable option that is on par with other more expensive options, just know that you have to measure your own pilot hole rather than following the instructions.

What a difference. These really compliment our homes style. The framing over our garage door is styrofoam so there was no drilling necessary. Just tapped them in. Love them. Also changed out our lights.

I read the reviews and followed others in selecting a larger bit to drill the hole for the anchor.I did NOT paint my spacers black as other reviewers did, it just didn't matter as much to me to have them stay silver.Before doing that, I taped the numbers up to the column. After making sure the numbers (with screws already on) lined up with the dots on the guided number page, I then used a hammer and nail to tap gently in to each guided number hole on the paper to make a mark in the column where I would eventually drill.I took the paper down so I could then drill without having to tear up the paper while drilling.The top number (on our column) was with a larger drill bit, the bottom two numbers I did forcefully with a smaller hole which is why they aren't perfectly lined up. It's not perfect, but I love the look of the numbers.Knowing what I know now, I would buy these again as the third number installation went very smoothly.

I bought a set of these for my craftsman style home. I absolutely love them, but like some other reviewers said, the 0 is actually smaller than the other numbers. I am thankful the 0 in my house number is in the middle, so it doesn't look terrible, but the numbers are all different heights.I didn't use the anchors, and they feel super sturdy without them. It's actually pretty simple to install once you do the first number.I did predrill using the paper piece they include. Then I screwed the threaded side of the long screw into the number, then added the tube. I took the number with the screw and tube and tapped it into the predrilled hole using a mallet.I would highly suggest taping the numbers up to get correct spacing. I didn't do that, I did one number at a time, and I wouldn't say they are all totally evenly spaced. But from far away you can't tell.Overall, SUPER HAPPY with this product! It really pops and the font is beautiful

Real poor quality material, look how much it lost its black after only 4 -5 months being installed. Only the 0 stayed perfect. Also, If you look carefully, the typography is not the same between the 2s and the 0.

This review relates only to the number "4" as that is all that I purchased. My comments 'may' be applicable to other numbers.The package consists of the die cast metal number and a small bag containing a variety of fixtures and wall plugs, all depending on how you intend to use the number. It can be affixed flat against a wall or, with the use of the longer fixings and small spacers, the number can be mounted as a "floating" number. In my case I wanted to mount the number flat against a wooden plaque which would then be screwed to a wall.In the packaging there is also a paper template of the number showing where the holes in the wall should go. The idea is that you place the template against the wall (or wooden plaque in my case) and then use the four points on the template to mark the places where you have to drill holes.Before drilling anything, I placed the template on my plaque and used a pointed tool, pushed against the marks on the template, so that small indentations would appear on the plaque indicating where the holes should be drilled.So far, the sequence was logical, but for security I took the short pointed fixings in the package and screwed them into the back of the number (see picture) and then turned the number over to see if the points lined up with the indentations on the plaque (see picture). Three out of four did, but the 4th point was sufficiently adrift from the template mark for it to have caused annoying problems had I gone ahead and drilled the four holes as per the template.The next step then was to place the number, points side down, onto the plaque in the required position and then press down sufficiently hard for the points to make an impression in the wood. I used those indentations and not the ones from the template, as the locations for the holes.An additional tip, I used a drill of slightly greater diameter than the fixing screws to allow just a tiny bit of wiggle room to make it easier when attaching the number to the plaque. As it was not my intention to fix the number directly to the wall, I used bolts that I had in my toolbox to attach the number from the rear of the plaque. With countersunk holes, the heads of the bolt are below the surface and the plaque will mount flat against the wall.The product itself is well made.

El diseño me encantó desde que lo ví, más moderno y actual que otros productos que estuve viendo. También el precio me parecio adecuado. Lo bueno se acaba ahí. El tamaño es bastante pequeño por lo que si la casa o el lugar donde se pondrán es grande, podrían verse un poco ridículos. Por otro lado se fijan de una forma un tanto extraña. Hay que taladrar, introducir el "taquete" y posteriormente introducir las pijas en el número. Una vez hecho esto hay que martillar la pieza para que se inserten las pijas en los taquetes......PESIMO.....muy difícil de lograr que se introduzcan, además de que la pieza se dobla muy fácil. El primer número que coloque, prácticamente se rompió. El segundo estuvo mejor pero igual se doblaron las pijas. Lo hice con mucho cuidado y de todas formas sufrió deformaciones. Coloquen bajo su propio riesgo ya que asumo que el montaje debe de ser similar a otros productos similares.

Numbers are very nice. BUT.... I used the size of drill bit they suggested in the instructions. That was a mistake. When I tried putting in the plastic plugs, they did not fit and mushroomed. There should be extra plugs provided. Either that or they should need more durable. They cannot take much force before bending. I suggest using a size up for drill bit.

We are really happy with these numbers that we ordered. We tried to find white modern numbers but couldn't find any in our price point. We ordered these, spray painted them white, and they look awesome. Installation was a bit tricky because we had to install them into 60 year old brick and concrete. But that was our choice and one we don't regret.
