Name plaques and letters / KW-PLQ-NUM
Number Plaque
Up to five big raised digits for a locker, a bay, a mailbox post or a shelf.
About this piece
Up to five digits, each 120 mm tall and raised three millimeters in your digit color on a plate in your plate color. Four countersunk holes, one in each corner, take ordinary screws. The plate is sized to the digits, so a single digit and five digits both get even margins.
Pick the material for where it lives. PLA is for indoors: a locker, a bay in a shop, a shelf in a storeroom. ASA is for outdoors: a mailbox post, a gate, a shed, a boat slip marker. ASA holds its color and shape in sun and heat where PLA would soften and fade.
Where it goes
- Mailbox posts, gate posts and fence posts, in ASA.
- Sheds, barns and workshop bays.
- Lockers, storage units and parking spaces.
- Boat slips and dock boxes, in ASA.
- Table numbers for an event, with a desk stand on request.
Letters print too, so A to E for a row of bays or a unit letter works the same way.

Questions about the number plaque
How far can it be read?
At 120 mm tall with a high contrast pair like black on white, the digits read clearly from about 40 meters, which is across most streets with room to spare.
Why does ASA cost more?
It is a more expensive material and it prints slower in a heated chamber. In return it survives years of sun without yellowing or warping. For anything outdoors it is the right choice.
Can I have a different shape, like a circle or an oval?
Not in the configurator. Email us with the shape and size you want and we will quote it.
Can the plaque be bigger than 200 mm wide?
Five digits land at about 330 mm wide, which is the top of our single piece build area. Longer runs ship as two keyed plates.
Can I mount it with adhesive instead of screws?
Indoors, yes, with two strips of outdoor rated foam tape. Outdoors we recommend the screws; the holes are already there.
