Wireless Doorbells
Ding Dong is Passé for Today’s Wireless Doorbells
Progressing beyond the typical ding dong, the wireless doorbells today are available with pre-recorded chimes or you can record your own announcement of visitors. The doorbell is probably not one of the things you give a lot of thought to when it comes to your home. But with the many available today it is time to think about changing that typical chime to something more personalized.
The Awesome Features
Recording your own message, song or noise is the way to go when it comes to wireless doorbells. Get rid of the boring chimes and record your favorite song or something a little more formal. It can be anything you choose usually up to 10 seconds to announce your guests. Many are available with the cable you need to record from your I-pod or stereo.
The doorbell has only been around since about 1831 but thank goodness we have progressed from the irritating buzz that was one of the first sounds to be used. The doorbells of today are much more pleasant sounding even if you go with the pre-recorded sounds that are available.
What are the Different Types?
Today you have a variety of doorbells from which to choose. The long range doorbell is perfect for those with larger homes. You can hear the doorbell from upstairs just as well as the living area.
Not only is the technical aspect of doorbells considered by manufacturers but the design is now a top priority. Advancing from the plastic box that was the basic choice, there are many options available today. Metal, glass, wood, brass, stainless steel, lighted or non-lighted and even one that looks like a grandfather clock are options.
Whether it is a Victorian style or contemporary there is a doorbell that will stand out and add to the beauty of your home. The range is another aspect that has improved with distances of 150 feet and more if you have an intercom system. These can be heard up to 3000 feet.
Options are Available
With the wireless doorbells of today, you can have CD quality that will resound throughout your home. Many models have a speaker hidden in the great looking design that improves the sound of the doorbell. Affordability is another option. There are many doorbells available with all the features you want and more for under $100.
Weatherproof doorbells, built-in antennas, intercom doorbells and flashing doorbells for the hearing impaired are a few of the options. Adding a unique sound to fit the holidays such as Christmas or Halloween is also a consideration. There is no doubt the doorbell has evolved.
