A house number is simply the number of your home, usually found on the facade or near the front door. Without house numbers, it would be difficult for anyone to find your home, which is not convenient if you are expecting a package or need to call for an ambulance! In the UK, local councils assign house numbers. Typically, the numbers run in order, but there can be exceptions. Importantly, you’re required to display your house number clearly.
For house numbers, acrylic and ACP (Alupanel/Dibond®) are top choices. They are long-lasting, weather-resistant, and versatile. At Plasticsheetsshop, we have these materials to create your perfect house number.
