NuTone has made many, many great sounding Door Chimes over the years. None sound better than the NuTone Model L60 "Sunburst"

A Rarely seen NuTone Chime - That deserves to be placed at the top of all NuTone Chime designs.

Hi Chris. What a treat. I was lucky enough to acquire an L60 produced in 1962. It was shipped with absolutely no protective packaging. Two of the chime resonators were badly crushed and cracked. I painstakingly glued the damaged resonators back together and used “the wet look” restoration paint to coat them for a nice seal and finish. With that and other basic cleaning and servicing, the chime works like new. The clock motor was seized and I got it working by using your technique with the toaster oven, then adding some “3-In-One” oil. I need to figure out where to install it. Even if not used as an actual door entry chime, it is a top candidate for installation as working decor, with the chime buttons discretely installed to be used for enjoyment and as a cool novelty to show off to house guests. Thank you!

Hi Anthony: You could always add pickup coils to the resonators (like NuTone did in a few other models) and then connect the L60 to your Intercom System. . . I just saying - ya know - if you wanted to. . . Chris

Growing up, we had the Nutone 8 Chime Winchester, but the version with the long gold "tubes". My parents left it in their previous home before they moved, and I kick myself for forgetting to go back and get it. It was from 1965 and still worked perfectly and was never serviced!
@northsideservicecompany3567
Hi ToyKingWonder: Long Tube 8-Note Chimes were always a very popular choice for an upscale Chime. It's not uncommon for them to only require basic servicing after 25 - 30 years. They tend to be very reliable Chime and are still sought after by many people - Chris

I absolutely LOVE the design of the Sunburst, and the sound of the Westminster Chimes perfectly matches the design of the chime... she's a beauty for sure, and it must have sounded especially great connected to a NuTone intercom that was produced around the same time period, so the timing of the introduction couldn't have been more perfect.

Hey Vincent: It is truly a fantastic NuTone Chime. I had a NOS L60 in Ebony back in 1995 and I sold it to a fellow in Japan who fell in love with how it sounded - Chris

Thanks! Nice sound. I would have liked to also see the functional part as well. It appeared to have motor that made the contacts? Also, with video labeled as nicest “bar chime” I wonder what you would call the nicest sounding long tube chime. I have a ‘bias’ for long tube chimes.

Hi Jim: The L60 Sunburst uses the same mechanism as all early "L" Model Chimes - Like the one in this Video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g3tjsbegF9o.html As for the best sounding 8-Note Long Tube Chime - I would say any "K" Model Chime (1947 - 1958) would be the winner. The Brass Tubes can easily resonate for 20-30 seconds after bring struck. The winner for best overall "K" Model Chime would have to be a K44 "Majestic" - Chris

Most assuredly the best-sounding NuTone. In my opinion, it's tied for most-beautiful mechanical chime of any maker with the Friedland (UK) "Westminster," sold in the USA by General Electric as the "Maestro," which is compact, 8-note Westminster with mechanical vibrato operated like a vibraphone, which has revolving butterfly valves over the resonators.

Hi Jonas: When I Googled the GE Maestro - I was surprised to see that it is a very nice table clock from the 1940's. Since I have an interest in this type of clock, now I'm going to have to find one to buy - Watch for it in a Video sometime in the future - Thanks for sharing - Chris

@JonasClark 2 года назад
@@northsideservicecompany3567 That must be a regular clock made by General Electric. The door chime by that name is from the 1970s, and is a black rectangle with wood trim, having an off-center brass disk on the front.

HI 7771mat: It's worth what someone is willing to pay for it - Time and patience are inportant to get the maximum amount for anything - Also, you need to factor in that it is about 60 years old and will / could use some servicing - Chris

Hi zx8401ztv: Well it was made in 1958 - it 's a real mid-century modern design. I've work on house that had a similar Sunburst escutcheon around the front door hardware - very classy look - Chris
