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. The LRA-EXTX-L is a small, battery-operated transmitter that wires into your existing door chime (follow included instructions). 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.
