If they can be simple stickers, I'd just have a local sign shop cut them for you out of reflective vinyl. Or you could have the sign shop cut them and then you could stick them on a plastic (or other material), embossed set of numbers.

I called two local sign shops ,
I think they were going to do what you recommended ,

One quote was $43.00 the other one never got back to me.

I was trying to keep the price of all four numbers under $20.00.

In my area the local Volunteer Fire / EMS dept's make and sell them for a nominal fee.

Perhaps in your area also?

numbersandletters.com? They used to sell letters, but now it's just numbers in various sizes and styles.

That's where I got mine for my mailbox about a dozen years ago. They're high quality (1/16" or 1/8" thick, gasket material and vinyl), stick on, and mine are still firmly stuck. And reflective.

Will try # and letters tomorrow,when I get to a computer, does not work on my phone.

Also, may try a boat shop to see if they sell what I require.

Smart sign only goes 3 inch's tall,

That link provided is for 6 inch tall, white reflective die cut letters.

I worked with this company ( Alphabet Signs) and got what I needed. Might work well in your application?

Another vote for local FD. Worked out great, green reflective decal on aluminum panel 6”x3” Complete with holes for mounting. Not faded, 6+ yrs in exposed western sun. VFD gave them out, you just had to sign up.

I can understand how easy it is to read them, especially when lights hit them.

Just checked my supplier for reflective sheets, I could probably CNC your needed numbers but it won’t be close to your 20.00 max....the 1/2 sheet alone is $52 without shipping....and my rough guess is I could squeeze your four numbers out of that half sheet.

ETA...adhesive backing adds 9 dollars to that half sheet....stuff is expensive!
I’m sure there’s a cheaper material to find ... keep looking



Eta#2....different supplier, same material but sell in quarter sheet with adhesive for just over 30 bucks. Material is 1/16 inch thick, UV stable outdoor rated and supposedly reflects brightly when light shines on it (headlights/flashlight/etc.) material is called IPI reflective...google search will show you what it is....still over your max but not as bad as I originally found

Well my home town has a company that makes the area town, village, etc street signs. They do make reflective house numbers too. Check them out and give them a call to see what prices are.

Thanks much folks, let me work on this for a bit,
I will get back to you.

 
For a good hold with stick-ons, clean the surface first with denatured alcohol, or acetone.

My interaction with numbersandletters was purchasing 6” white numbers for my address. I stuck them to an aluminum plate painted to match the house and screwed onto the front of the house with stainless screws. It’s been outside for several years with no issues. The numbers are the reflective type that reflects light directly back to the source, so a flashlight at night hitting the numbers will really make them light up.

got it done thanks for your help.

Some here might be interested in what your solution was.

At this point,
I sent the Alphabet Signs link to the landlord of the apt. complex.

With a suggestion/request that she aquire the chosen numbers for her building .

If she decides to get the much less expensive 3 " tall numbers , ( roughly 1/8 the cost )

I may end up purchasing the six inch numbers,
We will have to wait and see.

There are no numbers currently, either on the bldg. Or on the mail boxes across the street.

Then again there are only three buildings on this street.

My concern is not for the volunteer
( local ) F.D , but the County L.E. or the Ambulance people.

If it is of any help, the alphabet sign company was able to customize mine to include two lines one with numbers the other with the road name. All it took was asking. Had a fast turn around and still look good after two years.
