My 40 year old doorbell worked just fine with this one. It's not the age of the existing doorbell, it's the voltage being delivered through its transformer. Only if it's outside of specifications would I consider changing that transformer.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Pro is best when their is a slim door frame. As long your wiring allows for electricity to the door you should be fine.
