Durability & Maintenance
Our address plaques are engineered for long-term outdoor exposure. Whether cast in bronze for timeless elegance or aluminum for lighter weight and affordability, each material is selected for longevity and resilience. Bronze offers exceptional durability and classic appeal, while aluminum provides a lightweight, cost-effective option that still resists weathering when properly finished.
Sustainability
Choosing a cast-metal plaque offers long-term value and sustainability benefits. Both bronze and aluminum are highly durable and low-maintenance materials, reducing the need for frequent replacement. Aluminum is fully recyclable, and bronze — with proper maintenance — can last for decades, minimizing waste and resource consumption over time.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What material is best: bronze or aluminum?
Bronze offers a classic, timeless look, exceptional durability, and age-resistant properties — ideal for long-term outdoor use. Aluminum is lightweight and more budget-friendly, yet still durable when coated and maintained properly. Good for smaller or more cost-conscious projects.
Will the vertical plaque be visible from the street?
Yes — when mounted at eye to vehicle-level height (or per local visibility guidelines), the 3″×16″ vertical format provides excellent readability for drivers, visitors, and delivery personnel.
Can I customize the finish or add decorative elements like logos or icons?
Absolutely. We offer custom finishes and design flexibility so you can add logos, family names, or unique styling to match your home or community’s aesthetic.
Is installation complicated?
Not at all. The plaque ships with pre-drilled holes and mounting hardware, making it easy to install on posts, walls, or entryways with basic tools.
How do I maintain the plaque so it lasts for years?
Simply wipe with mild soap and water once or twice a year, avoid abrasive cleaners, and check hardware occasionally. No painting or sealing needed.
Signature Streetscapes Cast Address Plaques

About the Design
These solid metal address plaques are created using cutting edge technologies and years of experience. The versatile design allows the plaques to be mounted on a wall, a post, or even with lawn stakes. Wall mount hardware is included with each plaque. Each plaque is carefully inspected for imperfections that may impact the appearance or finish durability to ensure that every sign is of the highest value and consistency.
About the Materials and Finish
Signature Streetscapes Plaques are made from certified ingot alloys so that each one is of high quality and durability. We coat our plaques with a 3-part urethane paint system and bake them in industrial ovens to ensure a hard-wearing surface ultra-durable finish. A high gloss clear coat protectant is then applied to shield against the elements and make certain that the plaque will look as good as the day you received it for years to come.
