THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe leading and oldest established house in its line in this city is that of Messrs. C. L. Bates & Son, of No. 55 East 13th Street. It was in 1852 that Mr. C. L. Bates founded the business of the manufacture of fine locks, patent gong-bells, letter-boxes, bell-hangers' materials, etc., and remained located in No. 114 Fourth Avenue until in May, 1883, the present firm removed to No. 55 East 13th Street, three doors west of Broadway. Here they have a finely equipped factory with every facility, and employ a number of hands in the manufacture of their specialties. They hold the patent for their celebrated gong-bell, which has never had an equal. Also the patent for a very superior bell-lever, which works to perfection, and like the gong-bell has come into universal use. The firm are actively engaged in the manufacture of Bates's patent reversible gong-bell, Bates's patent reversible bell-lever, alarm gongs, bell-hangers' supplies, combination letter-boxes, mechanical bolls, door-openers, hotel annunciator repairing, while bell-hanging is a specialty. They likewise fit up electric bells, burglar alarms and speaking tubes in the most satisfactory manner, make door locks safe, provide safe night-latches, safe dead-locks, and bronze and silver-plated goods. Bronze furniture is cleaned, door-knobs are re-plated, and all jobbing is promptly attended to. Mr. C. L. Bates was born in Poughkeepsie, as also was his son, Mr. L. Bates, who has been a member of the firm for the last eleven years. He is still in the prime of life, being but twenty-five years of age. and the prospects before him are of a favorable character. Both his father and he are noted for their honorable methods and sterling integrety.
