When the house number alone isn’t enough, the Arbor Extra Grande 2-line wall plaque puts the street name right under it. Line one holds up to five characters at 4 inches, and line two holds up to 17 characters at 1.75 inches. It suits corner lots and rural roads where drivers need the street confirmed as well as the number.

Cast aluminum that won’t rust

The Arbor Extra Grande 2-line wall plaque comes from a casting process that uses recycled aluminum, and it’s made in the USA. Both lines of text are cast into the surface as part of the piece, so there are no stick-on letters to fade or lift. A protective all-weather coating finishes it, and the coating is covered by a five-year warranty. The decorative Arbor edge frames both lines.

Picking a color for the Arbor Extra Grande 2-line wall plaque

Four finishes are offered: Forged Copper, Black/Gold, Bronze Verdigris, and Bronze/Gold. The one in the photo is Black/Gold, reading “8524 Kinnelon Road” in gold lettering. Gold on black is the easiest to read at a distance, but the two bronze finishes and the copper blend better with stone or wood. Think about what’s behind the plaque before you decide.

Getting the two lines right

Keep your number on line one, since it’s the taller line. Use line two for the street name, a family name, or a short phrase up to 17 characters, including spaces. If you only need the number, the 1-line Arbor Extra Grande gives you taller 5.5-inch figures instead. Proofread both lines before ordering, because personalized plaques are cast to order and can’t be changed or returned.

The Arbor pattern is one of several in the Signature Collection, which also includes the Federal, Leroux, and Penbrook designs. If you’d rather have the sign at the curb, the same Arbor layout is available among the lawn address plaques on stakes. Either way, the Arbor Extra Grande 2-line wall plaque reads as a finished, permanent part of the house.
