What a great looking door bell, definitely out of the norm. Just about everyone that has come to my front door has had a nice complement. Just because you are getting older you can still put a little spunk in your life with this fun Gecko, stop being so drab. This Gecko is not small, it's 4 in high, 2 in across and 1 inch deep. Make sure it will fit before you order it. The Gecko is solid and very well made. The push button is lit up, which is nice. If you live in Florida Gecko's are a way of life down here. they are everywhere. Which is a good thing because they help keep the bug's under control. My Kitty and I also agree they are fun to watch. And yes they do hang out on walls upside down looking for bugs. If you are not into Gecko's check out Company's Coming other door bells, they have quite a few really nice unusual ones. Also check out the Company's Coming HNC-118 Gecko House Charm to complement this door bell.

This bell is fairly easy to install just follow the steps below. NOTE::: No need to turn the power off. the voltage is extremely low you won't feel it.

1- Remove old bell and wires, pull a little extra wire out from wall.

2- From the back push, push button out of the Gecko

3- Run your wire through the back of the Gecko where the button was.

4- Screw wire ends on the two screws in back of button. ( Makes no difference which is which )

5- Press button back into Gecko.

6- Push extra wire back into wall. And align Gecko over existing holes in wall.

7- Screw Gecko into existing holes in wall.

8- Admire your handy work and your Gecko.

NOTE.:: Your holes might not line up the same as the Gecko holes. It's just a matter if drilling 1 new hole to correct this.

TIP ::: If your drilled hole is larger than your screw, cut off the end of a wood golf tee and push in hole. That way your screw will have something to grab onto. Or you can use an inexpensive plastic molly, available at all hardware stores.

PS::: After you hopefully give me a thumbs up on this review, go to my photos under customer images on the product page. Thanx.

I have gotten nothing but compliments since I got this doorbell cover. I have to admit, I was a little disappointed at first because it's bigger than it seems. Aside from the linear dimensions, at its highest, it stands out from the wall about an inch at the center of the button and the rest is fairly substantial. Make sure it will fit where you want to put it. I was concerned because my doorbell was set perpendicular to the frame. When I installed it as shown, it barely fit.

I installed it as shown because that's where the holes were. Sadly, that buried its head in the corner and you had to look at it extra long to see what it was despite being so colorful. Then, one night, I was looking out on the porch where real geckos actually hang out, and noticed that they were clinging to wall with their heads pointed downward. I grabbed my screwdriver and loosened the doorbell. I turned it the exact opposite lining up the screws. I still didn't like it, so I set it at an off angle. Perfect! It really is just like a gecko might sit. I've included a picture for this page.
