Selecting the Right Wireless Doorbell - An Ordering Guide
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Tim_Fossett]Tim Fossett

Many people procrastinate greatly when replacing their doorbell, thinking that they need to hire an electrician, install yards of cable and wire, and hook up complicated transformer systems in order to get the system to work. In today's day and age, nothing could be further from the truth! With the terrific selection of wireless doorbells available today, there is no need to put this task off any longer!

With long range operating systems of up to 300 feet, and multiple unique frequencies, today's wireless doorbells work great in very large homes or even warehouses or office buildings. The great thing about these systems is that for installation, multiple receivers and doorbells can be set to the same frequency, which is a great alternative to hardwiring multiple chimes and push buttons to the same system. This is a great alternative to the traditional door bell set up, as installation of multiple pushbuttons for multiple doors can be coordinated with multiple receivers for larger houses or buildings that may call for many receivers.

Wireless doorbells for the hearing impaired are becoming a very popular choice as well, particularly in instances where compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is required. The Nutone LA204WH is an ideal choice for this application. This unit features a high powered strobe light which illuminates when the doorbell pushbutton is pressed in addition to the regular chime sound, so even if one cannot hear the chime, they will be aware that someone is at the front door. For hotels or multi-family apartments that need to be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act, this is a very popular choice and will help these types of properties remain in compliance with these sometimes stringent regulations. This unit also plugs directly into the wall, eliminating the need to change batteries.

The installation of these wireless doorbell units is extremely easy. Some, such as the LA203WH simply plug into sockets, while the pushbuttons can be affixed next to the door using a high-grade adhesive or with two screws. Other units such as the LA533WH can be placed on a table top or hung from a wall similar to hanging a picture, and they are all highly portable, which is great if you want to move the doorbell to another room in your house, or move it altogether if you decide to relocate.

These doorbell units are all very affordable, as the systems can be purchased, in most cases, for well under $50.00 apiece, receiver and pushbutton included. Some systems are even under $30.00! We know of very few significant home improvement projects that can be done for under $50.00, installation included. Since this truly is a do-it-yourself project, there is no need to rack up expensive installation bills.We sincerely hope that we have allayed your concerns about how difficult it is to install a door bell - because it really is quite a simple task! Furthermore, there is no need to trade off ease of installation or performance with style - there are many fashionable options as well as very compact, plug in options that are barely noticeable.
