The doorbell itself seems well made, and it works fine. The installation instructions, however, were terrible. Also, I bought what I thought was a complete kit. Which it was, mostly. I did have to buy my own wire. Not a huge deal, but had I known that, I would have been more prepared.

Buying notes
Is this the right fit?
- Good fit when
- Use this when the existing wired doorbell system works and you are replacing the outside button for fit, finish, lighting, or weather exposure.
- Look at another option when
- The chime does not ring even with the old button's two wires touched together. That points to the transformer or the chime, not the button. If you want a lighted button, check that the existing chime is the mechanical type most lighted buttons need.
- Mounting and fit
- Surface-mount buttons sit on top of the trim or siding with the wires through a small hole behind them. Flush or recessed buttons drop into a cutout so the faceplate sits closer to the wall. Compare the mounting style, faceplate size, and screw spacing with the old button so the new one covers the old footprint and lines up with the existing holes.
- Setup note
- Turn off power to the low-voltage circuit, note which wire went to which terminal on the old button, then move the two wires to the new button's screw terminals and mount it with the included screws.
The CK1001 is aimed at remodels, replacements, and smaller new installs where the goal is to get a clean wired doorbell system in place with minimal part-matching. The kit includes the wall chime, two black lighted surface-mount buttons, and a 16V 10VA transformer, so most of the compatibility work is already handled for you.
This version stands apart from white-button kits because the black push buttons pair better with darker doors, black hardware, and more modern trim packages.

Product FAQs & Customer Q&A
Answers from our team for CK1001 Craftmade Stylish Wired Door Chime Kit (choose colors) & Two Black Lighted Button.
Is this compatible with a Google Nest video doorbell, and does the 16V transformer meet its requirements?
This is a standard wired doorbell and it should work, but check with Google Nest first. The most common issue is the transformer — most are 10VA, so if you pair a wired chime with a video doorbell, make sure you have a 30VA doorbell transformer.
Answered for Customer
Is the chime kit cover made of plastic or metal?
It is made out of ABS, which is essentially a heavier duty plastic.
