Description
These Wooden House Signs are the perfect way to add a personal touch to your home. Made from top quality European Oak, they are 20mm thick and come in a variety of sizes and designs. They can be painted or oiled to suit your tastes, and come with pre-drilled or keyhole fixings for easy installation. They also come with a CAD drawing sent for confirmation prior to cutting, so you can be sure they will be perfect. These signs are sure to make an impact on anyone who sees them, so why not give your home that personal touch with a Wooden House Sign?
All our signs are made from hand picked Prime A Grade European Oak, the text is carved out using our CNC machine creating the perfect finish. Please note that as Oak is a natural timber the grain will vary from sign to sign. In European oak you will get a variety of grain changes, muldullary rays and small knots.* Sizes of 300mm+ wide will be constructed of two planks glued together, a small joint line will be visible on the outside edge.A CAD drawing will be emailed after you placed your order to show exactly how your sign will look, once this has been approved we cannot accept returns.
We have selected the most commonly asked fonts as an easy option to pick from, however if you would like a font we have not got listed then please get in contact to see if we have it available. Images of the fonts to chose from are in the image gallery to view.Please be aware, the more text you have the smaller it becomes, so choose the correct size!
With this option, not only do we still carve the timber, we then apply 2 coats of enamel sign writing paint into the engraved text. Black painted text is the most visible option to stand out against the colour of oak. The gold option is visible but not suited for smaller signs with smaller engraved letters.All our paint is Zinsser allcoat paint mixed to Farrow and Ball colours or stock colours.
Internal
All our internal signs are treated with Rubio Monocoat Oilplus 2C
External – oiled
All our external oiled signs are tread with Rubio Monocoat Woodcream Transparent.
Painted
We use Zinnser All Coat paints that are mixed to Farrow & Ball Colours.
Our signs can come with a choice of ways to hang your signs.Pre Drilled Holes – Pre Drilled hole space is generally 20x20mm in from each corner on 120/150/180 & 240mm high signs. On the 70 & 95mm signs the pre drilled screw holes are centered.Hidden Keyhole Brackets – If you choose keyhole brackets for flush easy fitting, simply screw 2 or 4 screws (dependant on height of the sign) in the wall that the sign will be mounted and slide the sign onto the screws. (they need to protrude out slightly to fit into the keyhole brackets).Closed eye hooks, we set these at 50mm in from each end. If you want different spacing let us know.Open eye hoooks, we set these at 50mm in from each end. If you want different spacing let us know.We recommend that if you choose to install signs yourself without fixings options by Hartwood Timber. Then fix the signs to a secure solid wall/post with fixings in each corner to ensure stability. Using wall stand offs, is also advised to stop any water being trapped behind the sign. Our pre drilled and hidden fixing options both come with A4 Marine grade screws and wall stand offs. A2 or A4 stainless crews must be used at all times with Oak to ensure black/purple tannin stains do not occur.If your sign cracks/warps or turns grey we can not be held responsible for this, as wood is a natural product. It may do this once exposed to the sun and the weather.
Each post comes with one end pointed, so you can either have the pointed end in the ground or above the sign as a pyramid top.The softwood posts are tanalised and the oak posts are treated with the same oil as the signs.We do not fix the posts to the sign due to problems with shipping and also to allow your own personal choice of fixing height.
Please note the order date of your sign as we have changed the products we use on the sign over the years to improve our service and quality of signs.If your sign cracks/warps or turns grey we can not be held responsible for this, as wood is a natural product. It may do this once exposed to the sun and the weather.

Excellent product and good to have chance to check design first. We're very pleased with our sign.

Thank you Sarah Black for your support & advice. We are very pleased with the finished product, quality & careful packing. I recommend this company for customer service, quality & efficiency.
We had a specific idea in mind for our house sign. The team at Hartwood, on the day drew up many designs based on our brief for us to choose from and sent them over immediately. Once decided upon, what I can only describe as a work of art was quickly despatched. The wood is beautiful and so tactile with an impeccable stand out design, real craftmanship and finish. The price was extremely reasonable too. They also advised because it is in a prominent position and subject to very inclement weather that to prolong the look and durability of the sign, it needed sealing and varnishing in marine standard products. This was absolutely the right advice. The customer service and end product has been second to none. Everyone who passes admires our sign. It’s almost wasted being outside! They are a wholesome family business and the thought and care they put into each product is clearly evident, nothing is too much trouble. Thank you Hartwood, I will definitely use you again and recommend to all.
I am more than satisfied with my house sign and the speed with which my order was completed.I would recommend your work to anyone.Thank you
I was very satisfied with the careful and prompt service and especially with the house sign with clear lettering on well finished oak block which was easily fitted.
It puts to shame the gate on which it is now fixed.
Excellent service and a quality product promptly received - just look at the photo. Would certainly recommend. Many thanks.
I'm so happy with the sign (and the post has been the subject of much admiration from wood fanciers). I'm grateful for Hartwood's care: after my first go at specifying, it came back to me with a really useful suggestion about the height of the sign in relation to the lettering that I was glad to follow.
