This Top Knobs Traditionalist piece is the numeral 8, a single-character house number in Matte Black for address identification on a door, post, or facade.
Among the numerals in any series, the 8 is typically the widest character, and that is true here: at 2-5/8 inches, it is broader than a 1, a 4, or a 7 in the same Traditionalist family. That width matters when an address is being laid out across a surface. The total footprint of a multi-digit address is the sum of the individual character widths plus whatever spacing is chosen between them. Knowing that the 8 is the widest piece in the run helps with planning the layout before anything goes on the wall.
These numerals are sold one at a time. An address that includes two 8s requires two of this item, and every other digit in that address is ordered separately by its own character.
The Matte Black finish gives the numeral a flat, non-reflective face. Against painted siding, brick, or stucco in lighter tones, a matte black character reads clearly because of contrast rather than sheen. The 3/8 inch projection adds a shadow line along the character's edge that reinforces its legibility against the background without relying on the finish alone to do that work. The body is zinc throughout.
The Traditionalist series suits an entry with more formal or traditional detailing, where clean-edged hardware in a flat black reads as intentional rather than industrial. Matte Black coordinates well across a wide range of door and entry hardware programs in the same color family, though finish consistency across brands is always worth confirming at the sample stage. This numeral is part of a ten-piece series, so every digit needed for an address can be sourced from the same family. Check local requirements for address numeral height if your jurisdiction specifies one.
At 2-5/8 inches wide, the 8 is among the wider characters in the Traditionalist series. Width varies by numeral, with narrower digits like 1 taking up considerably less horizontal space.
Matte Black is a common finish name, but the exact appearance varies between manufacturers. Confirming a sample alongside other hardware before ordering is the reliable approach.
One item per digit. If the address includes two 8s, order two of this SKU and the appropriate quantity of each other numeral separately.
Order this piece for each 8 in the address, and source the remaining digits from the same Traditionalist series for a consistent result across the full number.
