Why is size so important?
Imagine the delivery guy looking for your address. A clearly visible house number saves time and avoids confusion. Or think about friends visiting for the first time. A clear and legible number makes all the difference.
The Optimal Size: A Practical Guide
For a minimum visibility of 10 meters, the house number should be at least 5 cm high. However, the ideal is a visibility of 20 meters. In this case, we recommend a height of 10 cm. At Steelmonks, we offer you a wide range of size options to meet your individual needs.

Aesthetics meets function
While visibility is essential, the street number should also be visually appealing. A good rule of thumb is that it should not take up more than 75% of the available space. This will help you achieve a harmonious balance between design and function.
