Byron Wired Bell Push Flush Mounted - Brass

Bought for vintage look. Quality product from this company. Easy to fit and install

This looks good and is well made, it is not magnetic, so it won't rust. The wire terminals are a little fiddly, I used a PZ0 screwdiver for the terminals and a PZ1 for the fixing screws. I also put a line of silicone around the rear edge before tightening up to make sure it is watertight. European buyers, please note that this is for 12v dc, as used in the UK. It is NOT mains rated! Works well.

So far so good- need to see if it works in the rain and survives the weather

This is a great, value for money, bell push.Looking at the other reviews, it has been badly treated. It is not waterproof - very few are, but if it is exposed to the elements, the brass would need to be protected well and cleaned regularly. I would further suggest some silicone to prevent water getting in behind the bezel.It is flush fitting. This means that it is flush with the wall, rather than proud of it. It still needs to be wired in, but this is done by widening the last inch of the hole the wire comes through, making the bell push flush with the wall or architrave.Don't expect perfection at under a tenner. It is still good value for money.

Looks great, not too large, just right size. Packaging box it came in was flat and open. Not sure if stainless steel screws were meant to be with the product. If so they were missing because of the poor packaging.

Left the below review a few days ago and since then the doorbell has stopped working completely. So it lasted about a week. Not going to bother asking for a refund as it’s more hassle than it’s worth, but would advise avoiding this product - it’s cheap for a reason.The diagram of the backplate in the instructions is different to the actual backplate you receive, so I had to guess how to attach the wires. Ended up asking a relative who has experience in electrics to fit it, and even they said it was very fiddly and is poorly designed. They managed to get it to work - it does the job and looks nice. This was after I’d been sent a new backplate as the first one was faulty (the screws wouldn’t tighten). As a side note, the seller could be a bit more polite - bluntly saying “why do you want to return it anyway” when I asked for a refund for the original faulty bell isn’t the best customer service, so they could work on that.

This item is exactly what I required, The unit was very easy to install and also looks great.

I'm writing that review years after it was installed outside. I did it on purpose to see how it fares in Irish weather. It's 100% as new.
