A house number on top and a street name underneath is the layout of the Arbor Grande 2-line wall plaque. The first line takes up to five characters at 3 inches, and the second takes up to 17 characters at 1.25 inches. Buyers often choose it for a new build or a renovated entry, where a two-line sign looks more complete than numbers alone.

Durable by design

Like the rest of the Signature Collection, this plaque is cast in the USA from recycled aluminum. Aluminum won’t rust, which matters on a wall that gets rain and snowmelt all winter. Both lines of the Arbor Grande 2-line wall plaque are cast permanently into the metal. The all-weather coating over the top is covered by a five-year warranty, so you aren’t repainting it in a few years.

Finish choices on the Arbor Grande 2-line wall plaque

Choose from Forged Copper, Black/Gold, Bronze Verdigris, or Bronze/Gold. The product photo is Black/Gold, showing “8216 Plumridge Lane” in gold lettering. On a dark house, Bronze/Gold or Forged Copper keeps the sign from disappearing. On white or gray siding, the black version is the clear winner for readability.

Using both lines well

Put the number on line one so the largest characters do the hard work from the street. Line two is for the road name, and 17 characters covers most of them. For example, “Plumridge Lane” is 14 characters with the space. Letters, numbers, and spaces all count toward the limit. Double-check both lines before you submit, since personalized orders can’t be modified or returned once they’re placed.

Several two-line patterns sit alongside this one in the personalized plaques category, if you’d like to compare borders. The Signature Collection page gathers every Arbor, Coquille, Federal, Leroux, Penbrook, and Sheridan size in one place. Of them, the Arbor Grande 2-line wall plaque is a sensible pick for a standard setback with a long street name.
