How to install a doorbell? Undoubtedly one of the essential elements in any house to know when they knock on the door, which you can also install yourself with this simple step guide .

The options in the market with regard to the bells are varied: from the most common that are connected to the

electrical system to wireless bells, we can choose the model that we like the most, always remembering that functionality is the most important aspect to consider . Let's see how to install a bell.

Steps to install a doorbell

1 The most common bell is the one that is connected to the power, so the first thing we will have to do before proceeding with its installation will be to remove the electric current .

2 This type of bell consists of the bell itself, the push button and the transformer . The transformer reduces

the voltage of the domestic current to about 12-16 volts sufficient for the bell to work: therefore, before buying it, you must ensure that it is adequate to supply the correct voltage . However, in the latest models, the transformer is integrated in the unit and it is not necessary to buy it separately.

3 The transformer must be placed in an appropriate and walled electrical box : at this point, the phase and neutral conductor cables must be connected to the transformer terminals.

4 The red and black wires respectively connect to the bell and push button , and then the two white wires must be connected to each other.

5 The transformer box must be inserted into the wall and closed with a box equipped with ventilation holes.

6 Then , once the lead wires have been connected to the terminals, the bell and the push button are placed on the wall. Now the doorbell will be ready to be tested.

7 Remember to perform all these operations safely and, if you don't have much confidence with the electrical

systems, ask for the help of an expert electrician. The cables must be well insulated and the electrical system must be safe: even for something as simple as installing a bell, caution and attention are required.Steps to install a wireless doorbell

A battery-powered device, of course, is much easier to install because there is no need for transformers or electrical connections. Anyway, it is important to carefully evaluate your needs and choose a bell that is suitable to meet them optimally.

1 Equipped with a battery, the wireless doorbells consist of a transmitter and a receiver: the receiver can be powered by batteries or equipped with a power cord to be connected to the electrical outlet.

2 The transmitter , which emits a radio frequency signal, must be placed next to the entrance door by fixing it with a specific adhesive or with screws.

We do not have to do much more. The advantages of choosing a really clear wireless doorbell: the ease of installation compared to the "classic" electric doorbell and the ability to place the receiver where you want and move it according to the needs of the moment, although these types of bells are more suitable for shops than for private homes.(καμερες ασφαλειας)
