Buying notes

Is this the right fit?

Good fit when
Use this when you need a complete setup with the button or transmitter and receiver included, instead of trying to match separate parts.
Look at another option when
Look at a separate transmitter or receiver when you are only replacing one part of a system that already works.
Range reality
1000 ft is the published open-air range. Real-world range is lower when the signal crosses walls, metal, masonry, vehicles, shelving, or dense trees.
Setup note
Place the button or transmitter where the event happens, then place the receiver where the alert needs to be heard or seen. Test the signal before final mounting.

The LRA-EX1000S Doorbell Extender with Plugin Receiver and Strobe Light

The LRA-EX1000S-L is a Plugin Chime Kit to Extend the Wired Doorbell Sound Through Your Home.  Do you have trouble hearing the wired doorbell in your home? Do you have areas where you can't hear your doorbells, such as the basement or an upstairs bedroom?  A doorbell extender will do the trick.

This doorbell extender kit features a wireless doorbell transmitter - that easily wires into your existing wired doorbell - and a plugin receiver.    Connect the transmitter to your wired doorbell (following the instructions), plug in the flashing strobe receiver, pair the units together, and you have easily increased the sound of your current wired doorbell.  When a visitor pushes the wired doorbell button outside your home, your wired doorbell will work as usual.  Simultaneously, the wireless transmitter wired into the doorbell ) will send a wireless signal to the plug-in receiver.  Depending on the operating mode the receiver is set to, it will flash the strobe, play a melody, or both.

The LRA-EX1000S doorbell extender kit ships with one plugin receiver. However, add additional plug-in chimes to hear the sound in other rooms.  The LRA-DCRXS is the plug-in receiver that ships with this kit and is available to purchase separately as an add-on unit to expand the sound to other rooms.  For example, you might plug a receiver into your living room and also purchase add-ons to put a receiver in the kitchen, upstairs bedroom, basement, garage, etc.    Not only is the LRA-DCRXS available, but there are also a series of other transmitters (motion sensor, door contacts, push buttons, etc.) and two other receivers like the LRA-DCRX Multi-Zone Receiver and the LRA-VPRX Portable Receiver that are all compatible.

What does a doorbell extender do?

The transmitter in this kit wires into the existing wired doorbell in your home.  It is compatible with wired chimes that play a "ding" or "ding-dong" sound. NOTE: the extender will not work with video doorbells and intercom systems.  The transmitter is easy to install using the included instructions.  The transmitter works with up to two doors.  For example, your existing wired doorbell may play "ding-dong" for the front door and "dong" for the back door.  The transmitter extender may be set up to play one melody when the front door button is pressed and a different melody when the back doorbell push button is pressed.  If your existing wired doorbell is only wired for the front door, that's also okay.

Can't Hear Your Doorbell?  The LRA EX1000S Doorbell Extender Plugin Chime Kit to Extend Wired Doorbell Sound Through Your Home

These are long-range products that ensure they work in most environments.  Many people have negative experiences with wireless doorbell products, and that's because the wireless range (from transmitter to receivers) for products purchased at hardware stores tends to be 150 ft. max.  These are line of sight numbers, and any building materials, such as walls, doors, etc., will reduce the transmission range.  For example, a brick wall will reduce the wireless signal by 60%-70%, and each interior wall will reduce the signal by another 30%-40%.  Doing the math, you can easily see why our LRA products, with a 1,000 ft. range, dramatically improve over a wireless product with a 150 ft. range.

  • Kit ships with 1 x LRA-DCRXS Plugin Chime Receiver & 1 x LRA-EXTX Doorbell Extender Transmitter.
  • There is no limit to the number of LRA series receivers (LRA-DCRXS, LRA-DCRX, LRA-VPRX) each transmitter may be paired with.  For example, the LRA-EXTX extender may be paired with five plug-in receivers you have placed throughout your home.
  • The wireless range from the transmitter to the receiver is up to 1,000 ft. line-of-sight.  Environmental and building materials will reduce the wireless range.
LRA-DCRXS Plugin Chime Receiver with Flashing Strobe Light Callout Features

LRA-EXTX Features:

  • Transmitter dimensions: 2-1/4'' L x 2-1/4'' W x 1/2'' D (wires to connect to wired doorbell are approximately 9'' each).
  • Transmitter wires into existing wired doorbell (usually hanging in the home's foyer).
  • It only works with standard wired doorbells that play traditional ding-dong-type sounds.
  • Includes connections for front and back doors—one melody for the front door and one for the back door.
  • Powered by an extremely long-lasting lithium battery (CR123A) that should last many years without changing.
  • Typically, the transmitter is mounted on a wall slightly above the wired doorbell cabinet.  In some cases, you may be able to hide the transmitter inside the doorbell cabinet.

Got it hooked up. Grandson came from college. His 2nd yr. Electrical Engineering. Hooked it up for me. I am so excited! Works great! Just wished the Snow White ringer Classical song I chose would be longer, but I love it! Sallyann Soennichsen

RING APP SOMETIMES FAILS. WE NEED TO KNOW SOMEONE IS AT THE DOOR WITHOUT DEPENDING ON INTERNET

★★★★★Kim P.Jul 31, 2024

Everything worked well

★★★★★Richard B.Feb 15, 2024

Works great

★★★★★Lee C.Aug 1, 2023

We have an outdoor Kitchen and bar in the back of the house and hurricane Ian took the roof and with it the door bell and wiring. This doorbell extender I bought was plug and play

★★★★★RON H.Jul 19, 2023

I had a little trouble installing this because two of the wires in my home doorbell apparently were reversed upon installation so I had to change from the red wire to the white wire and then the system worked so it’s not the systems fault. It’s whoever installed my doorbell when they built my house 40 years ago. This is well worth having. It gives me great peace of mind to know I can know when my doorbell rings when I’m in my basement or in my workshop. I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

★★★★☆Lynn G.Jul 13, 2023

Not great sound quality. Serves the purpose in that the plug in at back of house so we are aware of doorbell now. We don’t need the light….. yet :) Nice option.

★★★★★William A.Jun 12, 2023

My spouse is beginning to experience some hearing loss and misses calls form our existing ding-dong doorbell at our front door. This product has eliminated that problem. Easy to install if you have basic tools and are handy with simple electrical work.

★★★★★Joel M.Jun 12, 2023

We installed this on our delivery door so that we can hear and see when we have stuff arriving. It was simple to install, sounds great, and the light flasher is very helpful for when we need the ringer to be off! A great solution to covering a large distance between where our delivery door is and the office space that need the notifications of delivery!

★★★★★Dennis B.May 9, 2023

Got two of them and they are great! Installed easily and functioned well. Using one in my basement and one in a sunroom which is outside the main house. Really glad I found these.

★★★★★Rick W.Apr 27, 2023

Easy to install and works exactly as advertised!

★★★★★Thelma F.Apr 22, 2023

So pleased with extender. This grandmother installed it easily and now I won't miss any more rings. Thank you for offering a great product.

★★★★★Luis R.Apr 17, 2023

5 mins install. Just works. Loud.

★★★★★Brad S.Apr 13, 2023

Easy to install and set up. I had it in and working in under 15 min. Nice loud "ringer" that installs anywhere you have an outlet. We can easily hear the doorbell in the basement now.

Easy to set up and program. Lots of rings to chose from. Now I can hear the doorbell from the basement.

★★★★★David S.Jan 19, 2023

Set up and decided to order two more receivers. Used barking for one door.

This works great

★★★★★Brian A.Jan 18, 2023

So far, this product has met my needs. I may need an additional unit for my basement

★★★★★Rainer O.Jan 11, 2023

for years i have not heard my door bell but my recent purchases from 8000doorbell is so clear and loud that now i hear if anyone is ringing my doorbell

★★★★★Janice S.Dec 14, 2022

Products arrived in record short time. I inadvertently oreder the LRA units AND the ERA units. I did not relaize that these TWO different technologies are NOT compatible. One simple call to their customer support resolved my mis-match and she gave me several options and easy to do tests at home. Buy this product and you will not regret your purchase. They do NOT use audio [sound] technology, rather radio signals, MUCH better.

★★★★★Anthony S.Dec 13, 2022

Instructions very specific, very pleased with results and I am 86 years of age and have hearing loss. I was able to install it myself.

Questions & Answers

Answers from our team for LRA-EX1000S Doorbell Extender to Hear Wired Doorbell in Home.

Can this product be used with ring doorbells?

Good afternoon. Unfortunately, no, we do not carry any extender system that would be compatible with any type of video doorbell. Thank you, Customer Support Team 1800Doorbell

Answered for Irene B.

I have an existing wired in door bell. I cannot hear it ring in two locations. Please advise what I should buy. Am I correct in believing that extension units plug directly into 240 power points? Thank you in anticipation Kevin?

Kevin, Good morning. The LRA-EX1000S kit contains one transmitter that would connect to your wired chime and one plug in receiver. The receiver plugs into a standard wall outlet and the LRA series is compatible with an unlimited amount of additional receivers. If you wanted to hear the chime sound in two locations then you would want to purchase the LRA-EX1000S and an additional LRA-DCRXS receiver. Thank you, Customer Support Team 1800Doorbell

Answered for Kevin

Does this work with Vivint alarm system and their doorbell?

Good morning. Unfortunately, the LRA-EX1000S is not compatible with any type of alarm system or video doorbell. The extender will only work with a wired, two note, mechanical chime. Thank you, Customer Support Team 1800Doorbell

Answered for Justin S.

Is this capable of ringing when multiple walls are between the wired doorbell and the plug ins?

The product has a range of up to 1,000 ft. from the transmitter (extender wired into chime) and the plug-in receivers. Each wall will reduce the transmission range of approximately 20% for each wall it has to pass through. This is an approximation as there could be other materials that could interfere, but this is a rule of thumb.

Answered for Cecilia M.

No Christmas sounds for the Holidays?

Yes, the receiver will play "jingle bells." You can hear the sounds here: https://www.1800doorbell.com/lra-d1000-long-range-wireless-doorbell-w-1000-feet-range.htm This kit shares the same receiver as the LRA-EX1000.
