Default Doorbell wire - Message for Bob

I've been looking for one. What brand and model do you have, so I know not
to buy that one.

Bob, Could you please tell me the brand and model no. of your unit?

I purchased one of these, and it went off constantly, even when the wind
would blow.

Thanks.

Corinne

what about a wireless doorbell


There's a base for one stuck to the doorframe;
Either a previous tenant took part of it with
him, or some kid from the neighborhood did.

I want to install something a little more
permanent...



People think that the more times they push a button, the faster I'll
get to the door. I finally replaced it with a wireless motion sensor
mounted out of reach that beeps inside when someone drives in the
driveway or starts walking up the front sidewalk. Then I put a large
round doorbell button with no wiring next to the door so people can push
the button all day to relieve their anxieties while they wait for me to
answer the door. The transmitter and receiver together cost $34 for the
wireless motion sensor, and it's sure easier than running wires.
