I'm planning to buy a Panasonic KXTEA308E telephone system for home
use (I work from home).

I also intend to buy a KX-T30865e door phone. The Panasonic
proprietary part looks too modern (my building is old) so I intend to
take out the PCB and re-house it in a sympathetic oak box. I'm going
to run four wires to the box: two for the phone connection and two for
the bell push, which will operate a standalone door bell in the
conventional way. (I don't need the phone extensions to ring when
someone pushes the button.)

Is the above feasible? I wondered if anyone had tried something
similar and could pass on their comments.

Does anyone know the dimensions of the KX-T30865e? I can't find this
information anywhere.

Perfectly feasible.
I have used the Pano door phone in various ways and also built interface
units between them and other existing door systems.
Will see if i have a s/hand unit lay around and measure for you.

The entire box is 3 7/8" W x 5 1/8" H x 1" D

The PC board is 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 but you need to find a way to press the
button as it's a mechanical connection. The mic, speaker and data
leads are all external to the board.
