Clear Alerts for Every Entrance
The Newhouse Hardware CHM2 Door Chime and 16TR Doorbell Transformer Kit provides a reliable wired solution for your home's entry notification. The CHM2 chime offers classic two-note sounds for the front door and a separate single 'Dong' for the rear, ensuring you know exactly where visitors are. The included 16TR transformer is designed for 120V AC input and outputs 16VAC/10VA, suitable for powering up to two doorbell buttons and chimes. This kit is ideal for replacing old systems or upgrading to a dual-door notification setup.
Installation requires existing doorbell wiring and a compatible 230V power source with the correct transformer. The transformer is UL Certified for safety and quality, ensuring dependable operation. The chime's white, modern finish with a vented cover allows sound to carry effectively and blends seamlessly into your home's decor. This kit is designed for wired systems and is not a wireless solution.
For Indian homes, a critical step is ensuring compatibility with the local 230V mains supply. The included 16TR transformer is rated for 120V AC input and will require a step-down transformer or a compatible 230V-rated doorbell transformer to function safely. Ensure proper electrical connections are made by a qualified electrician. All customs duties and GST are included in the listed price, with delivery via ExpressBox.
Authentic USA Quality for Your Home
Newhouse Hardware brings you a classic wired doorbell solution designed for clarity and reliability. This kit features a dual-tone chime for distinct door notifications and a 16VAC/10VA transformer, UL certified for safety. While designed for US voltage, it offers a robust wired system option. Imported directly, it ensures you receive a genuine product for your home's security and convenience, distinct from local alternatives that may lack specific features or certifications.
Who It's For vs. Who Should Skip
This kit is ideal for homeowners with existing wired doorbell systems who need a reliable, two-tone chime and a compatible transformer. It's perfect for those who prefer distinct audible alerts for front and rear entrances. However, if you have a wireless-only setup, lack existing doorbell wiring, or cannot accommodate a 230V-compatible transformer for the 120V US-spec unit, this wired kit may not be suitable. An electrician's consultation is recommended for 230V integration.
