Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Introducing the Hillman 1.5 in. Black Aluminum Self-Adhesive Letter Y — a durable, pre-finished character designed to elevate signs, labels, and DIY projects with bold readability. This single letter pairs a sleek black font with a gold background, delivering high-contrast visibility whether you’re labeling mailboxes, cabinets, lockers, or crafting custom signage.

  • Rugged aluminum construction: corrosion-resistant material that stands up to indoor and outdoor use without rust.
  • Self-adhesive convenience: quick, tool-free installation on smooth surfaces for a clean, permanent-looking finish.
  • Clear, high-contrast design: black letter on a gold background ensures legibility from a distance and in varied lighting.
  • Compact, precise sizing: 1.5 inch height and 1 inch width provide a noticeable yet unobtrusive presence on signs, labels, and displays.
  • Weather resistant: engineered to endure outdoor conditions, so your sign remains readable season after season.
  • One letter per package: includes a single Y ready to apply wherever you need it.

This Hillman letter is ideal for homeowners, crafters, and small businesses looking for a fast, reliable way to personalize spaces or create consistent labeling across environments. Use it to identify storage bins, organize workshop walls, mark doors or rooms, or add a polished touch to your outdoor signage without the hassle of painting or drilling.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
