Door Bells: Wired, Wireless and Video Types, Melodies and Range, Battery and Plug-In Chimes, Fitting and Prices
Door bells tell you someone is at the door, and the right one depends on the house: wired bells suit new builds, wireless bells suit rented homes and video door bells add a camera. Range, melodies and the weather rating of the push button matter. This guide covers types, range, power, video door bells, fitting and indicative prices. It belongs to electrical fittings in Pakistan; for smart versions, see smart home security cameras.
Wired and wireless
Wired bells use cable from the button, and wireless bells use a radio link and a plug-in or battery chime.
Range and melodies
Wireless bells offer ranges of about 100 to 200 metres in the open, less through walls, and many melodies. Test the range inside the house.
Power
Battery push buttons are easy to fit. Plug-in chimes need a socket. Choose a push button with a weather rating for gates.
Video door bells
Video door bells show visitors on a phone. They need Wi-Fi and a power source. See smart home security cameras.
