Choosing The Color Of Your House Numbers
When selecting the color for your house numbers, there are a few factors to take into account. Most importantly, ensure they can be clearly seen from the street; this is especially crucial during emergencies when first responders need to quickly locate your residence.
How bright are lighted house numbers at night, and which LED color suits which house?
The glow is even rather than harsh, because the LED sits behind each character and lights the wall around it, so the number reads as a solid shape inside a halo with no glare bouncing back at the viewer. Three LED color temperatures are offered: warm white, which sits well with brick, wood and traditional homes, natural white, which stays neutral on painted stucco and mixed materials, and cool white, which looks crisp against modern gray, black and metal fronts. An optional dimmer, timer or dusk to dawn sensor lets you control how much light you get after dark.
Do lighted house numbers hold up in rain, heat, cold and coastal salt air?
Yes. They are rated IP65 for outdoor use and built to keep working from -40F up to 140F, so rain, snow, summer heat and freezing nights are all inside their range. The characters are 201 stainless steel on a durable acrylic backing that resists rust, fading and coastal salt air, and each LED is rated for over 50,000 hours.
One option is to select a color that contrasts with your house's hue. For instance, if your house is light in color, dark colored house numbers would stand out more; conversely, if your residence has dark hues, light-colored house numbers would work just as well.
Another option is to pick a color that complements your home's overall color scheme. This creates an aesthetically pleasing effect and helps your house numbers blend in with the overall design.
If you live in a neighborhood with strict homeowners' association regulations, selecting a color for your house numbers may be required. Make sure to adhere to these guidelines and choose an option within what the association has designated as acceptable.
No matter the color you pick for your house numbers, make sure they're legible from a distance. This may involve choosing either a larger size or font with prominent letters.
Finally, ensure your house numbers are prominent and easy to locate. Take into account the color of your house, the overall style of your residence, as well as any association guidelines when choosing numbers that will work both functionally and aesthetically.
