Review: Classic Doorbell - Easy to install, looks good and had a nice clear, loud "ding dong".
Review: Direct Replacement for the Friedland Version - I bought this to replace the Friedland bell we'd had for over 20 years. unfortunately the plastic in the old one had become brittle and cracked with age, and would no longer hold the batteries properly. This was an easy replacement as all the screw holes and wiring terminals are in exactly the same place making for a very easy swap out job. I believe that Honeywell took over Friedland which is why the products are still available under a different name. This door-bell has metal bars which are struck by a solenoid, rather like a xylophone, and it makes a pleasant sound unlike some of the cheap electronic doorbells with tiny little speakers. Not the loudest sound, but plenty loud enough for a reasonable sized house where residents have no hearing impairments.

## Features

- Classic wired chime that should be mounted vertically on a wall, ideally at 2 m high, for best sound coverage
- Loud chime sound, suitable for most homes. Range 60 m (80dB at 1 m); 2 tunes options
- Powered by transformer 8 V(1A) (for example Honeywell Home D753 or D780) or batteries (4 x 1.5 V LR14)
- When battery-operated, the doorbell can be mounted up to a maximum of 15 m from the push; when transformer operated, it can be mounted up to 60 m from the push
- All fixings are included in the package

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I got this doorbell but no cable with it , Where can I get the cable ?**
A: Hello, 

Thank you for your interest in our products. 

We recommend contacting our colleagues at the doorbells department for more information.

The Honeywell Home department that handles doorbells, Friedland and Global Guard Alarms can be contacted:
by phone at  0800 279 3643
by email address at friedland.technical@honeywellhome.com or alarmsdoorbells.technical.uk@honeywellhome.com

 If you need further assistance from our side, please contact our consumer support team by submitting a request on our GetConnected HoneywellHome Website. 

Thank you.

**Q: Is this meant to have transformer with it as didn’t come with one**
A: You have two options. Use batteries or a transformer. The transformer must anything between 8 & 16v. That will be cheap and easy to source. I use it with Nest Hello (must be between 16 & 24v)  but the 16v transformer I bought specifically for it outputs 18v and the Chime no longer operates. If you have purchased the Chime for Nest Hello then sourcing the transformer is the tricky bit. I'm on my 3rd transformer. 1st miss sold as had no 16v option, 2nd failed after 4 days and the current one outputs at 18v on the 16v setting and 14v on the 12v setting.

**Q: I need a transformer for Honeywell dingdong classic what can I order**
A: Just order a doorbell transformer 8v or 12v

**Q: hi im looking for a wired doorbell chime that works with my ring doorbell pro**
A: Your best bet would be to contact the manufacturer

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not the loudest but good value as long as it lasts!
*by J***Y on 17 May 2019*

Replaced a vintage Friedland with the ceramic tile in the centre with this due to redecoration and wanting a bright white bell. It's NOT a Friedland bell. It's a copy. It works well enough but is not as loud as my original Friedland bell. It is louder when fully installed than testing on the bench before installing so don't be too put off before installation. It's worth the money provided it lasts (some reports of short life span). Hoping running on batteries will not stress the bell too much rather than mains transformer. Will report back in a couple of years or if it dies prematurely!
