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.
Trouble hearing the existing wired door chime in areas throughout your home?
This is a common problem with wired doorbells, in that they are typically not loud enough to hear in every part of the house. We have a solution!
The LRA-EX1000 is a wired door chime extender KIT that transmits a wireless signal to chime receivers you can locate throughout your home. When your existing push button outside is pressed, your door chime will ring as usual, and this product will simultaneously trigger the receiver to play a chime, flash an LED strobe light, or chime/strobe together. Add multiple receivers throughout your home, and extend your doorbell chime to the basement, garage, or bedroom.
Here's an example. You have an existing wired door chime hanging in your foyer. You can hear it well in the family room, but it isn't loud enough to hear upstairs in your bedroom or down in the basement. With this product, you can place a receiver in your bedroom and one in the basement. Not only does your existing wired chime play its chime sound when a visitor pushes the outside button, but the chime receivers in your basement and bedroom will now also play the melody you select.
Do I need to Hire an Electrician to Install?
No. The connection of the extender transmitter to your existing wired doorbell is easy and straightforward. Most wired doorbells have an outer chime cabinet, and when this cover is removed, you will notice the mechanical "guts" of your existing wired doorbell. You will then notice the "terminal strip" with three screws (a typical wired doorbell setup). One of the screws is labeled "Front" (for the front doorbell button), another screw is labeled "Trans" (for the transformer), and the last is labeled "Back" (for the back doorbell button). Each wire on the extender will wire into one of the screws. The extender transmitter will then lay inside or on top of your doorbell.

Here's how it works!
The kit consists of two different products, the LRA-EXTX-L wireless door chime extender and the LRA-DCRX wireless door chime receiver.

When your door chime is triggered (by pushing the front doorbell button), this device will generate a wireless signal and send it to the LRA-DCRX-L receiver.

Great experience. Received updates as item was on the way. Delivered on date as reported. Installation instructions very clear. Happy with the results!
Great product but wiring front dr to back color code was backwards so if you are only setting up one door and it doesn't work just try the other wire
Ordered this product because it advertised it worked with our original 1930 doorbell. It does, and it's wonderful. We can now move the chime anywhere in the house and can hear and see when the doorbell is in use. I highly recommend this item. Thank you, 1800Doorbell
They shipped it quickly. It works just as advertised. The only drawback was the quality of the instructions, which were very poor.
I needed to be able to hear my doorbell in the back part of the house. Thanks to the extender I can now hear it anywhere.
I can hear the doorbell. the 1800 receiver creates a tune that meets my hearing needs. The assistance for product selection was great. The tunes with the flashing light are more effective at night. This unit is worth the investment.
Love the option of changing doorbell tunes.
This product works well to provide adequate range, sound volume, and noticeability to the rung-doorbell alert function of a currently-marketed electromechanical doorbell chime unit that by itself produces inadequate sound volume to be heard in many areas of my house.
Completely satisfied with the product. Does the job better than I expected. Easy to install. Cannot say enough good things about the doorbell.
THIS DEVICE WORKS JUST AS ADVERTISED, CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS EVEN BETTER
Mine stopped working after a year or two. Called the company and they sent me a new one immediately with no charge. Can't beat that. Only complaint is it's impossible to get back into the little transmitter box once you close the cover.
I recently purchased a doorbell extender for a client of mine. I'd nearly forgotten about the extender when I happened to be doing tax paper clean up and ran across an invoice from a job i did quite awhile ago. With COVID, many of my clients have moved indoors and aren't always able to hear their existing doorbells. These items are perfect, easy to install and work fantastically. The prices are fair and shipping is oh-so-speedy! I'l be ordering plenty more and you should, too!
Item came in on time and worked perfect with easy instructions.
The product works very well. When out on my pool deck I know when someone pushes my doorbell.
I had to contact 1800Doorbell three times for clarification about connecting the doorbell extender. Once I received a return call due to volume of calls--not much of a wait-the second time I had a connection with C.S. right away, and the third was a call back from an after-hours request and was called early the following day. And each time the CSR was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating. I received a solid technical explanation, parts or exchanges as appropriate, and a quick response to all issues. The Extender Kit is easy to install, looks and works good, The only problem is I liked the first one I got so much I wanted and ordered a second receiver, and got the latest -1 model, which worked great paired to its -1 transmitter. But the -1 cannot be paired with a non -1 model, and I also discovered the transmitters cannot be connected in parallel. Interference, I guess. Connected in parallel, one or the other (-1 or older version) will "win out" the transmission to their respective receiver. But in contact with 1800Doorbell, they resolved it with an exchange, no problem. I couldn't be happier with either them or the product.
It was easy to install. The wired doorbell had some wiring irregularities but I was easily able to get the doorbell extender working. I do question how easy it will be to replace batteries when the time comes. The extender transmitter has to be opened from the back, but the back is taped to the doorbell box. And the added on doorbell button has to be twisted off but the retainer clip is also connected to the part attached to the wall. So a 5 star review today but dropped to 4 star anticipating difficulties in a few years.
Our home's front door bell was located just inside the front door and couldn't be heard in the kitchen especially during (pre-Covid) gatherings. This device solved the problem. Batteries put in the receiver helped accomplish the slight programming necessary. Mounted the receiver under the kitchen sink for plug in power next to the garbage disposal. Adjustable volume was very helpful. This worked so well bought two more for the office. Equally successful in allowing all to easily hear doorbell throughout office. Programming was easy once I realized to choose a different zone on the receiver for front and back doorbell.
Needed some help with tech support. The help was fantastic.
I have no trouble hearing or seeing this door bell. installed the extender unit on the main wired door bell that we could not hear in the main room of the home and installed a 2nd wireless button on the back patio door. Very loud if you want it to be, bright light and portable we can move it to the patio and hear when someone rings the front door bell. Love it!!!
The doorbell extender works great. It has many choices of tones, volume control, and an optional light signal. Installation wasn’t too bad, but would have been easier to understand if all the instructions were on one document rather than 3 or 4.
I had been looking for a doorbell extender for a long time. I searched high and low and lucked out in finding this one. Great product, installed in minutes, and many choices of chimes. It's GREAT!
Took awhile to figure out how to work but finally got it. Haven’t had a chance to experience it yet. The instructions were a little unclear.
The person who assisted via phone to select the correct product for my needs was excellent. She understood the technical aspects of our need and navigated us to a very good solution. much appreciated!
Works great! Product was in stock and at a fair price.

Questions & Answers
Answers from our team for LRA-EX1000 Kit to Help Hear Your Doorbell Sound Throughout Your Home.
Can this be mounted outside on a patio?
Good morning. The LRA-EX1000 receiver is not recommended for outdoor usage, any type of moisture or humidity could have an effect on the chime's performance. Thank you, Customer Support Team
Answered for Doug B.
Does the original doorbell also ring as well as the extender ? Do they both ring ?
Good morning. Yes, the door chime and the extender will ring. The extender transmitter wires to your existing chime and sends a wireless signal to the receiver up to 1000 feet away. When your door bell button is pressed, the wired chime will ring and the LRA receiver will ring in the location it is placed.
Answered for Shannon D.
Can I turn the chime off? I am looking for a doorbell extender with no audio, just the light.
Good morning. The LRA receiver has a switch that can control the chime sound and strobe light. This switch can be set to have only the strobe light flash, only the chime sound or to do both.
