Front entrance alert: Would we ring your bell end or bang on your knockers?

Door bells

Servants. Who needs bells when you have a doorman?

^ Well, quite…this was more for the peasants out there, y’know?

My Butler will see you to the drawing room.

^ Ooh, i’m hoping for crayons (purple)

I have a two-stage system: You push a button to ring a bell inside, but that just serves to trigger the real alert mechanism, my pit bull.

So I guess you could say you arouse my pit.

I can’t wait until @Kardamom finds this question.

^ I don’t quite get it, but thanks for sharing anyway.

Does its job!

You’d walk in the back door.

We have a bell, a real bell metal that you jangle. However, nobody ever jangles the bell because the canine door alerts go off as soon as you touch the front gate which is a good 30 plus meters away. The canine door alert system is becoming a tad inefficient since they’re pretty old now and seem to sleep more deeply.

My buzzers not installed so you have to call to get in.

Neither. Ya got knuckles dont’cha?

There’s a pager thing but I don’t think it works. Even if you tried, I don’t know how to work it. You’re better off calling me on the phone so I can come down and open the door.

My very young builders forgot to install a bell or chimes. Mine was their first house. So it’s knock and wait. Besides, everyone comes through the attached garage to door that enters from kitchen/dining area. Rap rap rap.

Often if I am out of ear shot and not expecting you, it helps to call me.

They also forgot to add outdoor spigots for a hose, but I did insist they add those before I bought the house.

Yeah, what difference does it make anyway? You all keep your doors open after all!

^^ Unlocked but not open, due to cat’s need to leave and mice and raccoons and squirrels need to enter.

@gailcalled You can get a computer chip that allows your cat and only your cat to open the cat door.
