Address Boulders
Artificial Boulders Are Natural Landscape Accents
Molded from actual rocks, these incredibly lifelike address boulders look and feel natural since they're manufactured from cast stone--not fiberglass or polyurethane--to withstand 9,000 psi (pounds per square inch) of pressure and freeze-thaw conditions.
The replicas of 500-1,000 lb. boulders are hollow, open at the bottom and weigh 50-60 lbs. Each model features a hand-chiseled recess and 13-1/2" (W) x 7-3/4" (H) rustproof aluminum plaque with your choice of up to seven 3" characters or five 5" characters in gold letters on a black background with ivy borders.
Anti-theft metal eye bolt and easy instructions included. The manufacturer will need approximately a month to make the address boulder. To that add 1 to 6 working days to ship from California.

Frequently Asked Questions
How are the artificial boulders manufactured and shipped?
The rugged castings are hollow, approx. one-inch thick and open at the bottom. They weigh between 50-60lbs.
(but are exact replicaes of rocks that would normally weight 500-1,000lbs.) and are manufactured from
construction-grade GFRC cast stone to withstand freeze-thaw conditions and 9,000 psi of pressure.
They are shipped ia FedEx Ground in 350-lb. test, double-walled corrugated boex using and industrial foam-in-place
packaging system.
How many years will they last?
Due to modern high-performave polymers and other scientifically-developed, construction-grade admixtures, our GFRC
cast stone reproductions are designed to last for generations (even in freeze-thaw conditions and in th face of mowers,
watering and trimming) abd typically wear in the same manner as, or superior to natural rock.
Do the boulders required special care?
The cast stone boulders are made to last outdoors for generations without and special maintenance or care,
whether located in high humidity, extreme heat or freeze-thaw conditions. Customers should be careful when
unpacking and installing their addrdess boulder, but if it should be accidentally scratched or chipped, the mark
will likely disappear from view as natural weathering takes place over sveral months, similar to what
happens with real rock.
Is there a manufacture product guarantee?
A 100% Satifaction Guarantee is offered for the lifetime of each boulder if the craftmanship is fond
to be defective in any way (with the exception of naturall-occuring adjustments in color). Plaques
are made of cast aluminum and are finished in baked enamel paint. They are rustproof and are guaranteed
to be free from workmanship defects for one-year. Customers with a valid crafmanship claim will receive and
immediate replacement with and identical product once the product is returned and the claim confirmed.
What choice of natural colors are available?
There are three natural colors to choose: Slate Gray, Sandstone and Red Rock. SInce detailed latex molds
for the boulder are tediously taken from actual rocks found in nature, customers expect that the color
process used for them match the realism on the reproductions.
Their demand for quality is met by craftsmen who enhance the casting swith permanent natural
shades using a propreitary coloring process which requies no special maintenance in the future.
How many charactes can the plaque accomodate?
The cast aluminum ivy oval plaque feature a black background and gold letters. It measures 13-1/2" (W)
X 7-3/4" (H) and can accomodate five 3" characters or seven 2" characters.
When can I expect the order to arrive?
The manufacturer will need approximately a month to make the address boulder. To that add 1 to 6 working days
to ship from California.
