Hi All! This may seem like an extremely stupid question but I wondered if you have any advice on how to get a doorbell chime/transformer casing cover off (picture attached). It looks like it should just pop off but it feels like I'm going to pull the entire unit off the wall before the casing...

Hello, I'm looking for advice on what is available. I'm looking for something that will allow to see who is at my front door when someone knocks on it. I currently do not have a doorbell, although there was one previously, or an alarm, or any kind of cctv. I tried the ring door cam and was...

Hello, I'm a newbie so hopefully posted in the correct place. I bought a ring pro doorbell which I knew needed hard wiring. I thought it would be as easy to replace my old one with the new one. It isn't. As I've suggested I currently have a wired in doorbell, 8v transformer outside of my CU...

Hi, I’ve just bought a electric servants bell from eBay that was sold as working and it appears to be, however when the bell is connected (at the bottom) and you press one of the bell push switches all the flags are moved. If you disconnect the bell the flags work independently to each bell...

Hi, I want to fit a new doorbell and plinth as the old one was shot/weathered to heck. Took the old bit of wood off, there are various screw holes filled with wood/plugs. The problem is only one matches up to the screw hole in the plinth - most of the diameter of the plinth where you could...

Hi all, I'm planning on buying the Ring Elite for my new front extension project. I already have Cat5e to the front for my existing CCTV camera with PoE, so two pairs already used up from this one cable. I'm hoping that the Ring Elite only needs two pairs too, so I can use the remaining two...

I think this is for an old door bell. I was going to remove it but then noticed it seems to be wired into the plug below it. Is it just a case of unwiring it from the plug below? Thanks
