Street Numbers
According to Section 505 of the California 2016 Fire Code, street address numbers on the front of our homes are very
important for emergency services all year long. Here is what the code requires: "Address identification shall
be legible and placed in a position that is visible from the street or road fronting the property. Address
identification characters shall contrast with their background. Address numbers shall be Arabic numbers or alphabetic
letters. Numbers shall not be spelled out. Each character shall not be less than 4 inches (102 mm) high with a
minimum stroke width of 1/2 inch (12.7mm)." While painting numbers on your curb can be very helpful, they do
not meet California Fire Code. Number visibility is imperative for all emergency services, so please evaluate your
home numbers and make changes necessary for your safety!
