byron doorbell chimes

Sep 19, 2009 9 Replies

We have a set of Byron SD86 wireless doorbell chimes and the bellpush is in need of replacement. The SD86 model appears to have been airbrushed out of history - can't find any mention on Byron's web site, and B&Q only sell SX and TX models - does anyone know of anything compatible with the SD range, or have we got to buy a new set



- in which case I'll buy something else from somewhere else, as long as it has a longer potential lifespan

Friedland have a range of wireless systems which you can get at the merchants. Also with theirs you can install the electronic push inside the house and connect bell wire to a standard external push. They also have mains/battery option on the receivers. I have mine wired through timers so the system can be turned off at night. I think they do 2 ranges of wireless and the cheapo version doesn't have those two features.

... and also have a policy of changing the design and dropping support for the previous, incompatible, versions :-(

Am I reading this right - you have a timer to turn your doorbell off at night??? Why?

Hmmm, quite like the idea of light-up notifiers triggered by timer...

- "Please wait" during sensible hours

- "Go away" during unsensible hours

Byron CS responded quickly when I asked a question of them.

My Headmaster at junior school had something very similar on his study door. Must have been about 1960.

So did mine, and I copied the idea for my bedroom door.

Oh dear, so did mine, and so did I, nobody took a blind bit of notice though, I also had a bell wired to my desk drawers.

Pocket money didn't stretch to a door interlock then? ;-)

I'll see you your bell wired to your desk drawers and raise you an intercom with extension points for when I was in the garden or up in the loft.
