How to mount the Modern Door Numbers

Preparation

1. Mark a line on the wall / door with a pencil or masking tape
2. Mark the center of the text line
3. Start mounting the modern door numbers from the center to the right, and from the center to the left

Gluing

For gluing the Brass Number we recommend using “Super 7” or “Super 7 Hi-Tack” silicone glue (stronger).

1. Place the glue on the back of the modern door, only in the wider areas of it. Put in a generous amount but be careful not too much that the glue does not slide off the side when sticking to the surface.
2. Place the number in place and press it gently. For a few seconds after clicking, you can still reposition the number (a few millimeters) to align it with the line of text.
3. Do not touch the numbers for at least 12 hours. When the weather is particularly hot it is recommended to perform the gluing with silicone glue in the evening.

Gluing on stone:

In addition to silicone glue, marble glue can be used, which is an epoxy glue. In this case it is advisable to search for a professional with experience in this type of work.

Mounting the modern door number with screws

1. Set the number in its proper place on the door
2. Mark with a pencil (through the holes) a mark on the door and then remove the number
   Wooden door / fence: Screw the screw up to about half its length, then screw it back out
   Steel door / fence: Drill small holes in the points you marked. Use a 2 mm diameter “metal-wood” drill bit
3. Set the signal back in place and screw the screws to the door / fence through the number

Warning: Be careful that the screwdriver does not “escape” and scratch the number!
In addition, it is recommended to use latex gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints on the metal. In such case remove them with a little vinegar on a soft cloth.

Adding backside spacers

On the back of the modern door numbers you can add nuts 1 cm in size and 5 mm thick. If you plan to add spacers, select “Two holes & screws” as mounting option when filling the order form.
In one of the photos in this post you can see what is the recommended location for installing the rear nut on each number.
To glue the nuts on the back of the Brass Number it is recommended to use “Super 7” glue.
The nuts that will be mounted corresponding to the holes do not require gluing because the screw passes through them.
Note: Do not stick a nut too close to the edge of the number, always leave a space of at least 5 mm.
