Still don't think it's an ENTRYPHONE handset see link http://www.entryphone.co.uk/pdf/phones.pdf
They don't use the numbers on your handset post a picture of the handset and entrance panel

But you're talking about the system outside or inside the phone at my neighbour's house??

 

[sparkymarka]

As before need a full picture of either the outside panel or other flats intercom, you can't just buy any intercom and wire it onto your existing system,some may work as the basics are the same but you may suffer from poor speech quality in and out , buzzer not working, lock release not working, so either fit the correct replacement or a universal handset proved to work on the system.

Go to this site.... Intercomsrus... To to handset finder your neighbours handset is a status 5800 scroll down to urmet 1030 which is now been replaced by the 1130, you may need a status handset as these are sometimes modified to work on status systems ...

Hi,

I have an Entryphone handset 8802, and would like to replace for a prettier modern version, which I have found (Entryphone 201 or Fermax Universal).

However, I was wondering if it would be possible to take a normal telephone, eg a vintage style diner phone, and repurpose as a door entry phone?

Thanks
Katie

That is possible and has been done but it requires a lot of work and knowledge.

The following link takes you to handset make/model data sheet where you can work out what the mappings are for common handsets:

Bought a Bell 801 to replace a Bitron handset and this chart helped me loads. Just remember to take a picture of the wiring before removing the old handset.

For those looking to replace a basic handset with the Bell 801, the handset is 'very' basic. No instructions supplied with the box either. Does the job but I would have like to have seen a button that activates the microphone just like the Bitron. Once the handset is lifted from the 801 receiver, this activates the mic. No biggy especially for £15 from Amazon.
