The Kensington is a modern version of a Grandfather Clock.
The Kensington is 80 inches tall and is constructed in solid Walnut.
The cabinet features a full length curved glass door and with glass in the side panels. All glazing is Pilkington safety glass.
There are several dial options including a square clear acrylic face etched with modern numerals with a Walnut rim.
The second option will be a round clear acrylic dial featuring etched modern numerals within a Walnut rim.
The rims on both dials, enclose low voltage LED´s which illuminate the numerals, when switched on by the touch sensitive switch.
The Kensington can be ordered with either the Kieninger® HSU gong movement or the Kieninger®HTU Jewelled Tubular Bell movement; these are the highest specification movements in the Kieninger range.
The HTU 8-day movement strikes the hours and chimes three melodies - Westminster, St. Michael and Whittington on nine full length polished tubular bells.
The HSU is identical in specifications but chimes the melodies on a 12-rod gong. Both movements have levers to select the chime and the automatic ‘night silencing’ mechanism to silence the chimes between 22-00 & 07-15.
