This metallic version of the Diamond Plate Birdhouse uses the same images as the original, but on a clear base that lets the brushed aluminum of the metal below show through the lighter areas of the images. The effect is almost 3-D and definitely mesmerizing & attractive. This material is protected with UV inhibitors, same as all panels I use for the birdhouses. The distinctive pattern of steel diamond plate panels is scanned here because it is too reflective to photograph! It's grey, black, & white geometry makes for a great design-forward birdhouse for the no-nonsense landscape.
These birdhouses are made using the same type of aluminum used for some outdoor signs and novelty licence plates (like those for colleges, clubs, or ball teams). They are UV stabilized and will never rust. Hang in dappled sun or full shade for happy birds and long lasting colors. Ventilation under the protection of the eaves and in the floor allow air flow through-out. The roof is removable for easy access to clean out old nesting material.
- Interior birdhouse is constructed of 3/4″ plywood, except for the roof, which is aluminum and removable for cleaning
- Hole is 1.5″ Diameter
- 6″ x 6″ x 12″, approximately 7.5″ wide at the eaves

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Wipe exterior clean with wet cloth
For pollen & other exterior buildup, clean exterior with diluted Simple Green or Dawn dish soap and a soft rag.
Remove roof at 4 screws to clean out old nesting material (optional, since some birds will do this themselves).
Make note of front/back orientation of roof so the screw holes line up correctly when you put it back on.
