Goodness, Have never seen another one of these! Took the exact one off my mom's door (she had this for over 40 years) do not know where she got it, probably a garage sale or in a flea mkt in Minnesota! I am just now in the process of putting a vintage Solid oak door with 9 small frosted windows on the top section (door came out of Catholic Girls School in the early part of the last century) and we are adding this exact door bell to it! It is in pristine condition-covered by a storm door all those years! My house is1937, and all the fixtures are vintage, Added vintage lighting also. Crystal & brass door knobs, everything that would belong in a vintage house. Have done vintage for over 50 plus years, and almost everything in my house is vintage or antique. SO SO HAPPY TO KNOW HOW OLD THIS REALLY IS, and you do excellent work! THANK YOU!

My grandparents had a doorbell that attached to the door. It was plain & instead of a pull you twisted a "key". At that time we lived across the country & would visit every other year, I loved ringing the doorbell. I think my folks finally made me stop. Thanks for the memories! I've always wanted a doorbell like that, I now live in an older house with the original door, so if I play my cards right & find one I might convince my husband to install it. :-)

Haha fair enough, I know there are many people that would prefer things kept as is! I personally don’t mind patina at all - There are many very cool larger projects like this that I haven’t purchased simply because the items look great in their current state, so I do try to find more shabby looking examples of hardware like the bell/pull here. Very cool, a house full of this hardware would definitely be spectacular! Thanks a lot for watching!

You probably won’t see this comment but my great grandmother had a doorbell like the one you’ve restored, the bell was mounted at the top of the door and the lever was mounted at the bottom of the door and was connected by a long rod, you then used your foot to ring it. All the kids got in trouble for playing with it because it was so different than any other doorbell we had seen.

This bell has a pretty cool design which allowed them to be ringed with a handle like the one in the video, a different kind of bell pull which was pulled straight out from the door and a rod or chain like you described. With a setup like that no wonder it drew attention haha. Thank you very much for watching!

It never ceases to amaze me how KZbin manages to show me videos that I didn't know that I really, really wanted to see. An amazing piece of work. Any idiot can take something apart, but it takes real skill to put it back together. I love to watch a true craftsman at work, even though it confirms that I am on Team Idiot. Also, thank you for not adding music.

Sorry for the late reply, but thank you very much for the kind words! Oh yeah, this type of video is definitely best without music - I figure the few people that would like music will just play some in the background while watching. Thanks for watching!

Very nice, I liked the patina too, but you`re choice of lauquer finish does look quite old. I thought it was all cast iron, but those 3 pieces were cast bronze, they don`t do that anymore. Nice job sir.

I am a volunteer at the Patterson House in Fremont, California. This house was a four-room farm house constructed in 1857. There was a Queen Anne addition constructed in 1889. This exact model of doorbell is installed on the front door of the 1857 house. The doorbell was probably installed around 1889.
