Installation & restoration by our own specialists or the very best experts in the world
Installation and restoration of your clockwork installation
Each day our technicians or the technicians of our partners hit the road to set up your clockwork installation, operating between heaven and earth. We also cater for the restoration of your clocks. Where restoration is not an option, we are able to reconstruct new clock faces that are identical to the old ones. Clock-o-matic and its partners have restored hundreds of historical, mechanical tower clocks. Conservation is not just about preserving authentic components as widely as possible but also about giving the clockwork a new lease of life.
- The largest cathedrals and monumental buildings have been restored or refurbished by Clock-o-matic in Belgium or by our international partners elsewhere. References to be proud of.
- Clock-o-matic Belgium holds the official “Restoration by Craftsmen” certification
- Chronos®is our unique electronic synchronisation and winding system for mechanical clocks that is used to invisibly integrate electronic components into the clockwork so as to optimise control and precision.
Installation and restoration of your bell installation
We supply all mechanical and electronic components for your ringing installation custom-built to the customer’s needs and requirements. After which it is installed by the best technicians. The Movotron® electronic ringing system ensures the clapper delivers the right dose of force onto the moving bell thereby preventing harmful vibrations that might harm the bell, the bell frame and the tower itself. In spite of the best possible care taken with bells, and with historical bells in particular, things can go wrong on the rare occasion. Cracked bells can be welded and broken crowns can be repaired. Wear as a result of the constant hitting of the clapper can be prevented.
- As a manufacturer, we guarantee long-term availability of original replacement parts for all Clock-o-matic products
- all mechanical products such as the electromagnetic hammers, clappers, ringing wheels, sounding bridges, ringing motors and bell frames are custom-built
- the electronic Movotron® ringing system is the ultimate global reference for the protection of historical heritage
