MHN vs. The Big Box Store

MHN vs. The Big Box Store

Not all house numbers are created equal. Ours are made from 3/8" solid, recycled aluminum. We include a handy drilling template made just for you for a beautiful installation. You'll get step-by-step instructions and concealed hardware for a subtle and sophisticated floating effect. Our products are handcrafted in Tucson, to enjoy for years to come.
