Is there a way to mount the button with screws by taking the button unit apart or am I limited to double stick tape?

Honestly I never got around to attempting it, but I'm sure you could. It's a pretty compact switch but if you're careful after prying off the back to drill a small hole in the plastic for maybe a single screw I would imagine it's not much of a chore. Double stick tape is actually okay- just use "good" tape. I use strong 3m automotive grade tape (as used to hold ground effects and Fiberglas trim on cars and trucks) start with a clean surface and this stuff will hold as well as a screw. In fact someone would have to destroy the doorbell button to pull it off. The trick with using tape is to not to let it look like you used tape. A neat job and anyone would assume it's mounted with hardware. I might be hesitant to pry it apart to compromise it's weather resistance. You might even dremel off a couple of screw heads and glue them on the face of the switch. For the price of this item, I really can't complain. Oh so much can be done with powerful tape, nydeodium magnets and industrial velcrow!

There is a sticker that comes with it. You can also screw the button to wooden beam or wall.

You can't tape it back sorry. You might have to solder (sotter if you don't know how to say it) it back together. You can't tape it or you will have a weird connection.

It is surface mount, not sure I understand about the button. The button is raised

Yes, you can use double sided tape or screw it in. Hopefully you have room to mount it on a flat surface as that would be better. Hope that helps.

No. You have to reuse your existing button or buy a new on. You're old button should work unless it is damaged.

I haven't seen the buttons offered separately. I would contact the company directly.

I find that the best way to mount these switches is with a bicycle inner tube cut down to fit you grip. Sounds silly but it works great and eliminates any chance of the adhesive failing.

yep, that's the replacement I bought from amazon. Same price. My old one cracked at the screw holes(possibly from pushing on it too hard). The face of it that has the button descriptions and such,,,, you will just have to peel it off of your old one and slap it onto the new one. It's not hard. Hope this helps.

It may cause the foam tape that comes with the button to fail prematurely, as it did at my location, but you can easily replace it. I've had no problems with the button itself.

You can use double sided tape. I used the Ergo Grip Tactical Light Switch Mount Kit (Black)

Easily, but I would do it differently. I would screw a small piece of wood at the bottom of where I wanted to mount it above. Then once the strip is resting above that to take any weight off pulling it lower along the wall; I would just use a single plastic tie right below the power switch. This holds it tight to the wall (use one screw in the tie holding the tie to the wall), and if you ever want to remove it you haven't done any damage to anything. Just some Spackle in the drill hole in the wall, and you didn't open the unit itself. I hope my explanation makes sense - it's hard to describe what I am envisioning as a solution.

If you want to get the best performance then use the screws. If you use double sided tape, magnets probably won't be held properly and your cabinet won't be secure at all.

Yes, the button is very easy for anyone to mess with. Put the unit high up, as this is the only way to really prevent easy tampering. Take care.

This comes with a Wall mount button, a button that screws to wall and the hole in unit snaps into. works great

I have the same item. I would **GUESS**: Try a"REAL" Hardware Store. Also... I chose to not use screws and so avoid holes in the wall. Instead, I **thoroughly** cleaned the painted wall surface and applied a NameBrand double-sided, permanent adhesive, FOAM mounting tape - FIRST, to the ENTIRE (Cleaned) back of the key hanger. You must trim the foam to fit and NOT SHOW from the front. PRESS FIRMLY to the wall. I used a cloth over a softwood block and "tapped " with a hammer to firmly set the hanger. I gave it 24hrs to bond - didn't HAVE to, BUT... Then I hung up the Keys, etc. I have had no issues.

My unit only has one button but there were similar units available with multiple door buttons. Just check carefully before you buy.
