Scenarios of When to Use the ERA-PRDCR
Real-World Examples of How Businesses Use the ERA-PIR Motion Sensor:
Protecting Warehouses and Storage Facilities:
- Monitoring large, open spaces: Mount the ERA-PIR near loading docks, storage aisles, or exterior building perimeters to detect unauthorized entry attempts, even from afar.
- Securing valuable inventory: Place sensors in specific storage areas housing high-value items for immediate notification of movement.
- Enhancing employee safety: Use the sensor in restricted areas or near dangerous equipment to alert personnel of potential hazards.
Improving Security for Large Outdoor Areas:
- Securing expansive parking lots: Monitor car movement and deter potential theft or vandalism across the parking area.
- Protecting outdoor inventory yards: Track activity in storage yards for equipment, building materials, or other valuable assets.
- Safeguarding perimeters of large properties: Cover long stretches of fencing or property lines with the sensor’s extended range, deterring trespassing and alerting personnel.
Enhancing Customer Service in Retail Settings:
- Greeting customers upon entry: Place the sensor near the entrance to trigger a chime or announcement, welcoming customers and improving their experience.
- Monitoring fitting rooms: Discreetly detect movement in fitting rooms to alert staff and prevent potential theft or vandalism.
- Securing stockrooms and back-of-house areas: Protect restricted areas while notifying staff of authorized personnel entering.
Boosting Security in Additional Environments:
- Office buildings: Monitor common areas, lobbies, or after-hours access points for enhanced security.
- Schools and campuses: Secure large outdoor areas like playgrounds, athletic fields, or parking lots.
- Construction sites: Protect equipment, materials, and perimeter fencing from unauthorized access.
The Components of the Motion Alarm Kit
When activated, the sensor transmits a wireless signal up to 4,000 ft. away to the compatible ERA-DCRX or the ERA-RXPG (choose receiver) wireless receiver. This kit includes 1 x ERA-PIR sensor/transmitter and 1 x ERA-DCRX receiver.
The ERA-PIR Motion Entry Alert Sensor
The sensor is an excellent choice for doors where you cannot mount an ERA door contact sensor or for door or other entries that sometimes stay open, hallways, and more. It creates an invisible zone that triggers when the combination of heat & movement is detected.
The sensor features a unique aluminum bracket mounted above a doorway or on the ceiling, allowing you to pivot the sensor toward the monitored zone. This allows you to have better control over the monitored area to reduce false alarms and interference. The higher the sensor is mounted, the wider the monitored zone. When a visitor passes under or through the monitored zone, it sends a radio signal up to 4,000 ft. away to the compatible receiver.
The receiver (see below) will play a chime sound when the motion sensor triggers it. Up to 12 different sensors may be paired to each ERA-compatible receiver, with each sensor triggering the receiver to play a selected chime sound. The number of receivers that may be paired to a sensor/transmitter is not limited.
The ERA-DCRX Desktop Receiver
Each ERA-DCRX receiver has four zones, each capable of pairing with three sensors/transmitters (meaning the receiver can work with up to 12 different sensors/transmitters). When triggered, each zone will play 1 of 12 melodies you assign to the zone so you can easily distinguish which sensor was activated. For example, you may program zone 1, the front door, to play a simple ding-dong sound, while zone 2 plays the Westminster Chime sound.
The receiver features a volume control button that allows you to turn the unit off, mute it, and set it to four different sound levels, with a max sound of approximately 85 dB. In addition, each zone on the receiver features a live 12V DC output that allows you to add sirens, strobes, fire alarm bells, and buzzers to increase the sound and bright visual indicators when the listening area is loud.
For complete kits with strobe lights, please visit the WDK-ERA-STROBE, or for kits that feature external sound options, visit the WDK-ERA-KIT product pages. The sensor/transmitter in this kit is the ERA-PIR, a motion-activated sensor. The idea behind this sensor is to mount it over an area you would like to monitor, such as a doorway, hallway, or another location.
Features of this Motion Based Chime Kit:
- Range from transmitter to receiver is up to 4,000 ft. line of sight.
- The sensor/Transmitter is powered by a 9V alkaline battery (not included).
- The receiver is powered by a plug-in wall transformer (included) for the ERA-DCRX or directly into the wall for the ERA-RXPG.
- The sensor/transmitter is shipped with an aluminum mounting bracket and screws. This bracket makes it easy to position the sensor to best create the monitored zone per your requirement (see chart below).
- A combination of heat and movement activates the sensor.
- The sensor is indoor rated.
- Low battery notice: when the battery in the transmitter is low, the zone indicator light it is paired to will blink for 10 minutes following a trigger & the melody plays two times in a row.
- The ERA-DCRX Receiver has four zones, each featuring a 12v DC output. Each zone can accommodate up to three (3) sensors. The receiver also features a 1 x C-form relay assignable to any combination of zones.
- The ERA-RXPG plugin receiver will work with up to 12 different sensors/transmitters.
- Both receivers feature a volume control button.
- Sound DOES NOT emanate from the sensor/transmitter. Radio signal transmits from the sensor to the receiver where sound is played.
- Sensor/ Transmitter size: 2.5” H x 4.55” W x 1.52 ” D.
- One-year manufacturer’s warranty.
- Manufactured by Safeguard Supply.
How & Where to Mount the Motion Sensor:
Typical installation of the sensor is to mount it above a doorway to trigger when motion is detected through the entrance (see
First, mount the aluminum bracket on the wall above the area you want to monitor. Next, slide the sensor into the bracket with screws on the sensor’s end fitting into the bracket’s open end.
Next, manipulate the sensor angle to create the monitored zone needed in your situation. Finally, tighten the screws.
The Size Motion Sensor’s Monitored Zone:
The height dictates the size of the monitored zone in which the sensor is mounted. The higher it is mounted, the wider the zone. The sensor was designed to have a narrow depth to help limit the invisible beam bleeding into areas you do not intend to monitor. The table below approximates the zone created based on the mounting height.
| Height | Width | Depth |
|---|---|---|
| 8 ft. | 9.20 ft. | 0.60 ft. |
| 10 ft. | 11.5 ft. | 0.75 ft. |
| 13 ft. | 14.95 ft. | 0.98 ft. |
| 16 ft. | 18.40 ft. | 1.20 ft. |

The doorbell motion detector works perfect for our small business. Some days there is no one positioned at our front door and this motion detector doorbell system is just what we needed for prompting us that someone has entered the building. Love all the ringtone options!
Magnetic door contacts would not have worked for me so I use this over the door. Works great!
Great item.took a little bit of reviwing the instruction. Works great!
They worked perfect for my client with 3 doors.
Great deal literally 10 minute hook up no issues staff is happy everyone can hear the chimes no matter where they are the second receiver solved our issue would definitely recommend
Bought the entry alert system for my business and it is great…very happy with it and it gives me a piece of mind knowing who’s inside my business.
I called 1800Doorbell to get some pre-sales tech support to make sure I ordered the correct product for our needs. The customer service representative was very helpful and guided me to the correct product.
I received the items as expected and installation and operation are very good. I have the transmitter sensor above an entrance door and the other two receivers are in different areas in a warehouse. We have concrete block walls and regular studded drywall and the receivers are up to 75 feet away with no direct line of sight and they work flawless. Our setting is a combination office/warehouse setting.

This is just what we needed to help us be alerted when people walk in our business. Easy to set up and works great.
ERA-PRDCR Motion Alarm Kit Designed for Businesses & Warehouses
We ordered the base unit, motion sensor and optional doorbell for a hybrid office. We wanted to ensure that staff working alone in the office had the option to hear when people entered the space through the main door (to a common corridor). We also wanted the option to close and lock the door – and to leave a doorbell in the hallway – for delivery people and unscheduled visitors.
The kits was exactly as advertised, and promptly delivered (we are in Canada). The volume and sounds are easily adjusted, and turning the sensor away from the lobby (to face the wall) stops the chime when there are many people in the office.
The one quibble I had is that while the doorbell unit was provided with a battery, we had to buy a 9V battery for the main sensor.
While we have had the equipment installed for less than a month, I have no hesitation recommending it to others.

I set these up and they work really well. Don’t buy for the price, you will need to buy a lot of them and still have junk.
Second one hope it lays as long as the first one 9 years
My wife has a busy Florist across the street from a large cemetery, we recently added a large stand alone Refridgerator which unfortunately obstructs our view of the front counter and entrance. I decided to buy the ERA-PRDCR motion alarm especially after reading J.H.’s previous review of how well it worked in his florist. It came very fast! The product was very easy to install and works very well. Makes a sound every time a customer walks in –
We run a floral/gift shop with a workspace in back (separated by a full cinderblock wall). Sometimes our florists need to be in the back workspace instead of up front where they can see the door. I have installed 2 WiFi cameras that display on a TV in the back space so that whoever is working back there can have a real-time visual on the front entrance/shop area. I using an app for this video feed that will pick up any motion and play a chime sound instantly through the TV. Sounds great except for two things: 1) if the camera drops signal (happens every now and then), then we lose all knowledge about what’s happening up front and 2) the field of view is much too large and therefore creates too many false positive chimes! This ERA-PRDCR kit is MY ANSWER to the perfect setup. I now rely on this unit 100% for my motion sensing chime. I have installed it right next to the entry door so the field of view is nice and narrow. The receiver is way back in the floral work space and there are zero issues with reception. The signal goes right through the cinderblock wall! I still run the constant video feed on the TV in back. The chime alerts us that someone has walked through the door, which prompts a look at the monitor to see more detail about what’s going on. I docked one star for the thoughtless chime sounds and also the cost feels a bit high to me for the actual technology at play. I’d prefer more options for shorter tones. I don’t need an entire song playing every time somebody walks through the door. That would be super annoying, especially with groups of shoppers. If you preview the tones on this page, you’ll realize what I mean. There are really only 3 options for our needs (Ding-Dong, Ding-Dong 2, and Bird Chirp).
Ordered the ERA-PRDCR unit as a “door chime” for a small accounting firm (sometimes we don’t have anyone at the front desk and it’s great to know if someone has entered the office). Quick shipping to the west coast after placing the order over the phone. Company answered my questions up front so that I was sure I was purchasing the right product for my business.
Installation was quick and relatively easy. After the battery has been installed in the transmitter, be sure to wait to close up the transmitter unit with the screw until it has been paired with the receiver.
Our transmitter is a couple of office drywall walls away from the receiver. No issues so far with the ability of the signal to reach through the drywall (which was my big concern up front).
Unit appears to be quality-built. It’s more solidly constructed than the low-cost alternative purchased online from Amazon that lasted about 15 months before failing. I have high hopes that this unit will work out.
Replaced window style sensor from Amazon with this thing and it works great!
This product is very easy to install and works very well.
I have been looking for a solution for some time now, and this wireless option was a great fit. I was able to watch the Youtube Video and program the speakers easily. The selling point for me was being able to add extra speakers to one system. I have a large store with many back rooms / coolers / office. Adding speakers in each area was important and you can increase the volume for the large store rooms and decrease the volume in the office to make it less intrusive.
you do need to plug the speakers into an power outlet by the way wasn’t to much of a problem, but something to think about.
WORTH EVERY DOLLAR
