Doorbell FAQ's

How to choose the right doorbell for your space.

How will the doorbell fit my house?
Select a design from the doorbell gallery and click "Download a Product Sheet". The product sheet includes a printable template that can be used to determine sizing.

What finish options are available?
Brushed aluminum is the default finish for all Modish Metal Art designs. Bronze and black patinas are available as well. The patina is a five-step finishing technique. Because the patina is a metal stain, some unique finish variations should be expected. Bronze/black patina doorbells come with a bronze LED-lit button and matching screws.

What type of metal is used?
Doorbells are machined from ½” solid aluminum. They will not rust.

What is the coloring made of?
Coloring is made with a two-part epoxy resin. Pigments are hand-mixed to achieve the desired color, so slight color variations should be expected. The resin may contract slightly with temperature changes.  

Is the doorbell lit?
Yes. The push button is lit from behind with a white LED light.

Is the doorbell wired or wireless?
The buttons are made for wired doorbell applications, but can be made wireless with a converter. Visit the Installation Instructions page for more information.

Is there a warranty?
Each doorbell plate purchase contains an extra replacement push button. This is your warranty.  Please contact Modish Metal Art if you have any difficulties with the initial installation. If you wish to purchase additional push buttons, they can be ordered on the Doorbell Replacement Push Button product page. Your custom decorative plate will last many years.  If your doorbell receives direct sunlight, or is exposed to a harsh environment, the lifespan may be less.  

How long will my order take?
Each item is machined and produced as it is ordered, so regular orders may take up to 2-3 weeks of production time, plus shipping time. Depending on your location, please allow 3-5 weeks for all orders. Custom designs may take longer due to additional design time.

How much is shipping?
Shipping rates are very reasonable as all our pieces are made from aluminum, a lightweight metal. Canada Post Expedited or Tracked Packet is our preferred method of shipping. The rate will be calculated once your address is entered at checkout. Shipping to Canada and US only.

Do you accept returns?
Because each doorbell is made to order, no returns are accepted.

Can you do custom designs?
Yes. There is an extra design fee which will be requested upfront. Please contact with your requests and for a custom quote. Check out @ModishMetalArt social media pages for custom work. Connect with us on Instagram - Facebook - Twitter
