I was updating the old Rittenhouse Chime doorbell that I could no longer get parts for. The Carlon battery powered unit emulates the chime sound perfectly and was easy to install. Because it’s battery operated I could just mount it over the old real chime unit which is now a decorative antique. I’m very pleased to have the correct sound back. Hope the batteries last a long time, but they should be very easy to replace when the time comes.

We have this about 1/4 mile from home and it works good. My only frustration is that there's no volume knob on the receiver. It has four volume choices and we have it on the lowest, but it's still plenty loud. I had to placed the receiver in a location where it's not so disturbing, as sometimes we have a lot of turkeys and deer that cross its detection.

We use it as a motion sensor in our showroom. Sometimes in the summer we keep our door open so a door alarm wouldn't work. This unit is a little over kill for inside, but we got it so we could also get a remote beeper, allowing us to go into the adjoining building and be able to hear if motion was detected. Easy to install, plenty loud, works great.

Pictures are better match for the finish than description, trust your eyes. Aged brass doesn't match schlage antique brass finish as well as the brushed brass did. Quality of hardware is better than price would suggest. Highly recommend.

This doorbell was an exact replacement for the old one that had failed after 17 years of service. It worked straight out of the package with no fiddling. I was amazed that my Google search found it on my very first try. The price was right and shipping was fast and flawless. Thanks 1800 Doorbell for the great service!

I purchased this kit to replace my old doorbell because I had phantom ringing. This doorbell was as easy to install as advertised and works beautifully. The doorbell button is a solid thick plastic construction. Much more durable than the one I replaced which was from a big box store. I no longer have phantom ringing problem but if it happens again, I can resolve by changing the operating frequency on this doorbell.

Fit well for our unusual application: a call button to alert sound engineer when remote control room needs to talk using strobe only (no sound). I only wish that the strobe was easier to connect to extension wire - having to solder the connection was a bit of a pain vs. having screw terminals on the strobe. We may in future add buttons/zones but so far this is working great.

I work in a 1930 theater built with concrete and rebar. This doorbell unit is part of a wireless system that I hoped would ring from our front entrance up to our office on the 2nd floor. It works perfectly - except someone removed the doorbell from the entrance doors. So I'm hoping that person now has all the doorbells s/he needs. Great product - fast shipping. Thanks.

The Alarm system is working much better than I expected since I have a large metal sided building that is in direct line of sight for one of the transmitters. It is detecting entries in to the driveway every time though. I have submitted a question though asking about a portable alarm receiver for this unit but I am concerned if I am wanting it for in the metal sided building it will likely not work dependably. Thanks for your product it is performing better than advertised or expected in my situation.

I’m always a little bit apprehensive when purchasing something online, but this item was 100% of how described and how the picture looked. I was surprised at the sturdiness and detail of the bell plate. It arrived in a timely manner, and I would definitely have no concerns about using this website for future purchases

Excellent product and super easy to install. I reached out to customer service with a question. They were knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful with my order and even went the extra mile to send me an email with step by step instructions to install and pair up the receiver to the transmitter. Excellent experience from purchasing to owning. Marilee C. was the customer service person I worked with. She was awesome. Thank you.

It's a nice quality doorbell. Everything else out there was plastic, this is nice quality metals. Its compatible with my Ring doorbell, which is part of why I was replacing it. I did need to also purchase an additional piece, a transformer I believe, so it would work properly, as advised by their support team.

I needed a non- lighted button for doorbell, couldn't find from local hardware stores and thankfully was able to locate online at 1800Doorbell. Checkout was easy and received the button timely. Thank you 1800Doorbell for carrying non-light version, they are hard to find!

This is a charming doorbell and substantial weight. Would have been great on my Craftsman style home. Alas, I didn't check the spacing between screws and it's too short for the hole distance already drilled in the wall. Sorry to have to return it, but live and learn.

Simple to install and easy to choose chime options. The volume setting has 4 options and the only drawback is that we wish it could go even louder :-)

Now a days you have to be so careful about internet purchases, it’s very easy to pay out money for something and get junk or ripped off. This is a great product, not too expensive and this bells work great. Mine are installed in a place that details vehicles, loud vacuum cleaners, high pressure wash, buffers, and these bells can be heard over all these items going at once. I purchased 3 transmitters, the main unit and 3 bells. I programmed all transmitters to one zone and paralleled the bells all under that zone. The unit can handle 400 mA per zone 12 volt output, the bells are 40, so it handles the output for the 3 bells perfectly. As of now am very happy with the purchase. Also used customer support to verify I could put all the bells on the same output. They were very helpful, didn’t keep me waiting all day. Great customer service. Would recommend this company’s product to anyone and would definitely purchase from them again.

These are high quality units, very well made, and the fit and finish is excellent. However, while the strobe light is super bright (and the main reason that I decided to keep it), the sound level of the chimes was not nearly as loud as I expected or needed (I am using it in a home-based woodworking shop). Therefore, I had to purchase a second receiver/strobe unit in order to place it in the same room. Note: my hearing is perfectly normal. One receiver simply wasn't loud enough. P.S. Marilee in customer service was excellent and a joy to deal with. She is very knowledgeable and friendly.

I was trying to match an old copper doorbell on a custom door trim with limited dimensions. This was the cheapest doorbell I could find but also such high quality! Super impressed, thank you.

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.

We’re really happy with it. Only note is that the website description does not say what the packaging says very prominently: that this can’t be used with a battery:operated doorbell. So be ready to install a doorbell transformer if you don’t have one.

My wife has been sick for sometime, she can't walk very-fare and at time's is unable to get out of bed on her own we have been looking for something to let me know if she needs my help. My hearing is getting bad can't hear door bell so I came across this, set it up for door bell and added a wireless push button door bell so stet it up for her to have near by and alerts me when she needs help.

The ERA-EXKIT solved our meager door bell in our older home. We can hear the doorbell all over the house now. We will not miss our visiting friends again because we just were not able to hear the doorbell. What a great easy solution! Highly recommend!

This doorbell is replacing one that was 20+ years old and and the back door chime no longer worked. This was a perfect replacement and being able to match the finish of my existing wood work made it even better.
