Preferred method of doorbell ringing?

Single press?
Quick double press?
Annoying multiple press?

everyone knows that but it’s a bit @theo to point it out isn’t it? probably even more pendantic than going on about frankenstein’s monster

Single press quickly followed by three knocks. Postie has it down pat.

depends. if i don’t know what the tone will be, probably just play it safe with a single. if i know it’s going to be a melody i’ll try and time a doubler in a harmonic fashion. if it’s my brother i’ll just keep pressing it as much as i can until he answers the door to annoy him.

just thing, someone somewhere has posted them all on their facebook at some point.

Freidland/Honeywell used to be the good ones to go for.

I think they also have an app that will make your phone ring if you’re out in the back garden too.

If you’re renting, it’s probably best to go for a wireless rather than hard-wired system, but you can get chime units that you plug in to a normal socket, rather than having to use batteries.

Here’s the catalogue.

got a classic ‘ding dong’

Want to get one of these bad boys:

and also a smart lock for the door as well.

Oh and in my old place I had one that played the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.

I quite like how the ‘What do customers buy after viewing this item?’ panel is then a selection of doorbells for a tenth of the price.

Ding dong landlord here

that don’t do any of the same stuff.

I mean it’s something if you were looking for doorbells would probably look at because it shows up in the search, it’s good and highly rated, but if you’re not fussed about it then you’d just go back and get a standard doorbell like the other ones, right?
