Description
Product Overview
The Newhouse Hardware CHM24V White 24-Volt Wired Doorbell Chime is engineered to bring reliable, audible alerts to residential entryways. Constructed from high‑quality ABS plastic with a sleek white finish, the chime blends unobtrusively with any interior style while resisting everyday wear. Its dimensions—9 inches in length, 5 inches in width, and a shallow 2‑inch depth—allow for easy placement on walls, door frames, or inside utility closets. The unit operates exclusively on a 24‑volt transformer, delivering two distinct tones: a traditional “Ding Dong” for the primary front door button and a single “Ding” for a secondary or rear door button. This dual‑tone system ensures occupants can instantly identify which entrance has been activated, enhancing both convenience and security.
Usage
Designed for a wide range of home environments, the CHM24V chime is ideal for single‑family houses, townhomes, and even small apartment complexes where a hard‑wired doorbell system is preferred. Homeowners can pair the chime with any compatible 24‑volt transformer—commonly found in existing doorbell setups—to replace aging or malfunctioning units. The clear, resonant tones are audible across typical living spaces, making it suitable for open‑plan layouts, multi‑room homes, and even noisy households with pets or children. Because the chime does not rely on batteries, it offers uninterrupted service and eliminates the recurring cost of battery replacement. Installation is straightforward for DIY enthusiasts: connect the front and rear doorbell wires to the designated terminals, secure the unit to a wall using the provided mounting hardware, and test the tones for proper operation.

FAQ
What type of transformer is required for this chime?
The CHM24V is designed to work with a 24‑volt AC transformer. Using any other voltage may cause improper operation or damage the unit. Look for a transformer labeled “24V” or search for model “40TR” for compatible options.
Can this chime be used with smart or video doorbells?
Yes, the chime can be paired with many smart or video doorbells that operate on a 24‑volt system. Verify the doorbell’s voltage requirements and ensure it supports a wired connection before installation.
Is professional installation required?
Professional installation is not mandatory. The chime includes clear wiring instructions, and most homeowners with basic electrical knowledge can install it safely. However, if you are uncomfortable working with household wiring, we recommend hiring a licensed electrician.
What should I do if the chime does not sound after installation?
First, confirm the transformer is delivering 24 volts to the chime. Check the wiring connections for secure attachment and ensure the doorbell button is functional. If the issue persists, consult the troubleshooting guide on our website or contact customer support for further assistance.
Does the chime come with a transformer?
No, the CHM24V is sold as a wired chime only. A compatible 24‑volt transformer must be purchased separately if one is not already present in your home’s doorbell system.
