When it came time to give the Firemen's Memorial at the Montgomery County Department of Public Safety a facelift, they asked Coastal Clock and Chime Co. of Cinnaminson, NJ to do the job. The cast bell had been poorly plated, and the plating was lifting and flaking off in many spots on the bell. Coastal Clock and Chime Co. removed the bell and striker back to the Cinnaminson, NJ shop and started removing the remaining plating. The bell was media blasted and polished to a high luster while the striker was rebuilt for reinstallation back into the bell. The finished bell is now back in the Memorial ready to carry out its duties.
