Buying notes
Is this the right fit?
Good fit when
Use this when you need an additional compatible push button at a door, gate, counter, driveway, or other alert point.
Look at another option when
Choose a kit instead if you do not already have a compatible receiver. This transmitter sends the signal; it does not make the chime sound by itself.
Range reality
5000 ft is the published open-air distance from this transmitter to a compatible receiver. Walls, metal, masonry, vehicles, shelving, and dense trees can reduce that distance.
Setup note
Mount the push button where visitors or staff can press it easily and where its signal can reach the receiver. Pair it to the receiver, then set the tone or zone on the receiver side.
The UT-4000 is a transmitter compatible with the Dakota Alert 4000 series of products and is the push-button transmitter in the LH-4000 warehouse doorbell kit. This transmitter may be a long-range wireless push button or a door window contact. As a long-range wireless warehouse doorbell push button, the unit will transmit a wireless signal when a visitor presses the push button. As a long-range wireless warehouse entrance alert, the unit will transmit when a door is opened.
Please note that it IS NOT compatible with the Dakota Alert 2500 series or the ERA series by Safeguard Supply.
When the sensor is triggered (push button or contact), the unit will transmit a radio signal up to 5,000 ft. (line of sight) to the compatible plugin door chime receiver, the DCR-4000. The transmitter may be mounted to an exterior wall next to the door as a push button or on the door frame and door when used as the door magnetic contact in a wireless entrance alert system.
Will This Warehouse Push Button Work in My Warehouse?
Although all environments are different, I would bet this product would be one of the only wireless doorbell products available today that would work in almost every situation. Why? Because of the long-range transmission capability of this transmitter. Most products available are designed for residential home usage, meaning the wireless range will top out at around 300 ft. - 1000 ft.
This may sound like an adequate distance, but the reality is that in most commercial environments, whether a large warehouse or smaller convenience store, or gas station, wireless products have a significant amount of interference through concrete, rebar, metal, etc. For example, did you know a concrete wall could diminish a radio doorbell signal by almost 50% and standard interior drywall by about 20%? So every time this radio signal has to penetrate a wall, the signal is degraded. This leads to an unreliable product.
How is this business-grade push button powered?
A long-life 3V lithium battery powers the push-button. Within normal business operations, the battery should last 12-18 months before replacement.
Can you use more than one push button or door entry alert?
Yes. You may use up to 16 different transmitters with this system, with each transmitter playing a different melody or tune on the receiver. This allows you to distinguish between the door that triggered the alert quickly. Sound one for the front door and two for the back door. Like every product in the 4000 series, you can add additional DCR-4000 plug-in receivers.

Questions & Answers
Answers from our team for UT-4000 Warehouse Door Contact or Doorbell Push Button.
How do I mount the Ut-4000 and magnet as an entry sensor on an inward-swinging exterior door? You photos show it mounted on an -outward-swinging door.
The ERA-UTX may be mounted on an inward or outward swinging door. You just need to ensure the smaller magnet is 1/2'' or less from the larger piece (this is the gap between the magnet and the larger piece). Here's a quick FAQ article for more details: https://www.1800doorbell.com/faq/mounting-the-era-utx/
Answered for Gus R.
Can this be used as a customer entry notification, (door chime, one sound)? plus as an employee entry notification, (employee presses a button), to let other employees know they walked through the door, with another sound?
Each transmitter, in this case the UT-4000 has a sound it instructs the receiver to play. If you use it as a push button and a door magnetic contact at same time, the receiver will play the same tune whether the door is opened or the user pushes the button. An alternative would be to purchase an additional UT-4000. Use one, program a tune, as the push button and use the other as the door magnetic contact and program it to the receiver with a different tune.
