Newhouse Hardware FMB Doorbell Button, 1-Pack, Brass

Worked

The old one had a clear bezel and I was happy to find a clear bezel replacement on Amazon. The doorbell faceplate was bought at an Art Fair looong ago. The button slipped into the 5/8" hole perfectly. Unlike the last time when the button was glued in, I wound a bunch of duct tape around the button to hold it in. If it lasts another 10 years, I'm OK with that.

Terrible product. Cheaply made.

easy to install

I purchased this to replace a lighted inset that came with a more expensive doorbell surround. My house has three garage doors, two garage genie’s and an off-brand. The third opener switch failed and I couldn’t find an exact replacement. I initially purchased a fairly overpriced, but admittedly quality-looking doorbell thinking it would work. Unfortunately I hadn’t learned that lighted push-buttons don’t work with garage doors. I attempted to modify the button to get rid of the light and it failed miserably. Rather than abandon the project, I purchased this product, shaved out the hole of the housing, and paired them together.It works great, is reliable, opens my garage door - and looks good doing it. It’s definitely quality, though I felt it was a bit pricey, so I gave it 4 - stars instead of 5.

Bought to replace broken button in doorbell button plate. Easy to install and work’s well.

We needed to replace a cracked doorbell button that was over 50 years old. I looked all over the doorbell and could not figure out how to uninstall to replace it, no screws, no holes to pop it out, nothing. This worked perfectly as there no need to remove the entire doorbell, just popped out the button and replaced. Very easy to install and works perfectly.

When I received this item it didn't work. I found the bulb inside was shorting out and had to take the button apart and remove the light.
