What You’ll Need to Install The Simply Sweet Address Plaque
These are the things you'll need to install The Simply Sweet Address Plaque from Post & Porch:
✔️ The Simply Sweet Address Plaque
✔️ The included printed address plaque template (make sure it’s printed to scale!)
✔️ 4 wall anchors and 4 mounting screws (2″ length recommended)
✔️ A drill, pencil, level, and appropriate drill bit
Simple Steps for Installing Your Simply Sweet Address Plaque
Here is how to easily install your Simply Sweet Address Plaque:
Step 1: Tape and Level the Template: Use painter’s tape to temporarily secure the address sign template where you’d like it to hang. Check for straightness using a level before proceeding to step 2.
Step 2: Mark Your Mounting Points: The Simply Sweet Address Plaque template marks four keyholes – two on the top, two on the bottom. These should be 21 inches apart horizontally and 3 inches apart vertically. Mark the screw locations through the paper address plaque template using a pencil.
Step 3: Drill the Pilot Holes. Remove the address plaque template and drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Choose a drill bit that fits your anchor type – larger for drywall, masonry for brick or stone.
Step 4: Insert Anchors and Screws: Push or lightly tap the wall anchors into the holes until they are flush. Insert screws into each anchor, leaving approximately ¼ inch of the screw head exposed, so your Simply Sweet Address Plaque can hang flush.
Step 5: Hang the Address Sign: Align the address plaque’s rear keyhole slots with the screws, gently lower it into place, and ensure it sits snug against the wall. Tighten screws slightly if needed for stability.
Step 6: Add Your House Numbers: Finish it off with bold magnetic house numbers – up to 4″ tall – for a high-contrast, ultra-modern curb appeal look. Arrange them however you like; they're totally customizable.
→ Post & Porch PRO TIP: Double-check that the The Simply Sweet Address Plaque is level before any final tightening. Whether you're wall-mounting to brick, stucco, or siding, a secure, level base ensures your house numbers truly shine.

The Simply Sweet Address Plaque Reviews
"We purchased this gorgeous address plaque display to complement our newly remodeled entry. We absolutely love it. Excellent quality, and we love supporting a small business. We had to drill into stucco to install mounting screws. We spaced them 8 18 apart and only used the top bracket on the back of the address plate. We measured carefully and used a level, no problems. We will enjoy this for many years to come and are very happy with the purchase." - CEF.
"This is absolute perfection. It's been hung for a few months, and despite extreme rain and wind, the house numbers didn't move. This small change makes a world of difference in updating my house and curb appeal. Beyond thrilled with this purchase." - Sarah.
"We saw Orlando Soria advertising these on his Instagram and had to get it. We have a long driveway, so we really needed our address to be at the beginning of the driveway. It has added so much curb appeal and made it easier for people to find our home. The quality is top notch, and the magnetic house numbers are strong. Definitely recommend this address plaque." - Carol.
