Customer Reviews for Everbilt 5 in. Wood Grain Zinc Alloy Floating or Flush House Number 9

We were looking for a set of floating numbers and ran across these in black. Installed them on a piece of walnut to hang up. After a year, these numbers hold up well. Between the harsh winters and hot summers, the paint has maintained its color and still looks new.

Don’t follow the instructions on the back. 7/32 drill bit was too small of a hole for the anchor provided. Go one size up from that and the installation is a breeze

Good product but the installation can be tricky. I suggest not using the guides in the back of the packaging this is what worked for me. 1) Install the little rods to the letters by hand 2) present the first letter and use a level to make sure it is vertically and horizontally aligned. 3) once you have it positiined use a rubber Mallet to make the markings of the 3 holes. 4) use a puncher to better mark the wholes and then drill with the recommended drill bit size. ( I used a drill stop to mark the exact depth of the plastic anchor) 5) install plastic anchors and make sure the hole is properly drilled so the anchor goes smoothly. If the whole is small and you hammer the plastic anchor too hard it will flatten mid way and it will be a pain to take out. 6) Install the Sleeves and hammer the letters in all the way with the rubber Mallet. I used and Iphone box to mark the separation of the letters and to make it easier to use the level. Something that I didnt like about them is that the sleeves provided make the separation from the wall too short. To me they look better more separated. Overall a good and modern product

Template makes it easy to install.

Template makes it so easy to install

They look great, it went in fairly easily. The anchors are kind of chintzy, we’ll have to see how it holds up overtime.

My template had a laminated panel affixed to the instruction list now reflecting the correct drill bit size. Hint: To confirm the drill hole placement, suggest following my pre-drill routine shown in the pic, which ensures your cast number matches the printed template drill locations.

Nice and big. Easy to see from the street. Very easy to attach to a piece of wood. 3D look really cool!

Great looking numbers! Very sleek and modern. Easy to install

Be aware that the template is not consistent with the screws on the actual number. It resulted in an extra hole and a the need for filler. Two of the three screws lined up but the number is ever so slightly tilted. INSTALL THE MOUNTING SCREWS INTO THE NUMBER AND COMPARE TO THE TEMPLATE BEFORE DRILLING!!!!

Paired these numbers with the Gibraltar Cedar Deluxe Drive-In Mailbox Post Kit on both sides and then also on the aluminum siding of the house too. Super easy install, amazing impact to give a colonial contemporary ranch a more modern mid-century ranch feel without making a canary look like an elephant but within its limits for a fresh timeless update.

I've had them up on for about a week and they've weathered a bit of rain. They look amazing and the instructions, and reviews, were helpful and clear. I used a block of wood as buffer when I pounded with the mallet so as to not damage the finish, but they went up pretty easily.

Because I put the numbers on a column when I used the anchors they pushed all the way through. I was still able to firmly secure the numbers to the column but I'm nervous that it won't stay tight. Overall good product.

The numbers were easy to install and look perfect! We installed in wood siding and decided to skip the anchors because of some of the reviews already left regarding the anchors breaking. The numbers feel secure and installation was a breeze with using the provided template.

Easy to install!!

This Everbilt 5 in. Elevated Satin Nickel Plated Number 0 is simple and attractive. All the numbers are easy to read from the road and look great. They were easy to put up - the directions were clear and easy to follow. I love how they look!

Love these house numbers. They are simple, easy to read and look great! They have a clean, modern look to them. Im very happy with them!

Looks great on the house and very easy to install. This definitely meets my expectations and glad they give you an option to elevated it out or you can keep it flush if you want. Great product

These appear to be an attempt at “updating” the mounting hardware/setup from the Hillman brand numbers (undoubtably made in the same exact place)....while all thread studs that replaced the more sophisticated studs on the Hillman brand version, the plastic inserts that are suppose to be driven in are so soft they simply smash over. I worked my way up on the suggested bit size after being unable to drive the insert into the recommended 3/16” hole...unfortunately, when i oversized the hole to a size where i could bump the insert in with a hammer without is smashing over, the insert would ultimately end up driven in deep into the siding when installing the numbers. While they are ultimately “installed” and seem secure enough, it certainly wasn’t ideal and made a bit of a mess of the siding around the anchors (which thankfully doesn’t show). If doing again i would simply ignore the plastic inserts and pilot a small hole in the siding that allows the studs themselves to simply grip the siding. SIDE NOTE: the templates are fine......its the numbers themselves that are twisted a little (these are cast parts) and have to be checked against the templates and tweeked as needed to make sure the studs line up with the hole locations on the template.

I love the floating numbers. They look so sleek and sophisticated. I read all the reviews for the other brand...most not so good. The Everbilt brand looks identical to the other brand so I figured I would give them a shot. The template is dead-on. None of the screws broke. It was a pretty simple little project. Took about 30 minutes. I taped all 5 templates together to make sure the numbers would be properly spaced and then taped them to the wall. The only issue I had was that I had to use a larger size drill bit because the plastic screw anchors didn't seem to fit properly. I am overall very happy with them. :)

Very nice looking modern numbers, good size for a clapboard panel (5”) and to be seen from a distance.

Holes are not bored all the way and have metal sprue in them. If you try to hand thread the bolts in, they will go in crooked and only part of the way. You will need to find a same size machine screw and force it in and out a few times with a screwdriver to clear the hole. Then you can insert the existing bolt all the way and it will be straight.

They look beautiful, but don’t be fooled. These were the worst to install. The directions are seemingly easy and straightforward, yet quickly you will realize the drill size is way too small for the anchors. Once you get holes big enough for the anchors, you then realize the anchors are so flexible, they bend and warp and push through the wall, leaving you will no anchor whatsoever.
