Shopkeeper's Bell Door Chime for Business When Entering - Bell Opening - Solid Brass Metal Opening Business - Door Entry Chime Bell Ringer

I mounted the bell so that our dog would let us know when she wants to come back in. I tried several other cheaper bells and their sound was weak and useless. This bell is clear and crisp sounding and very well made. Forget the cheaper bells and not waste your money. Our dog has gotten us trained to let her back in when she wants!

The media could not be loaded. So we bought two shopkeeper’s bells for our German Shepherd to ring when he wants to go outside and when he wants to come back in. For indoors, I just bought a cheap 5.99 one because it was all I needed to get the job done. But I was concerned it wouldn’t be loud enough for me to hear if it was rung outside, so I shopped around and stumbled across this gem. Sure, it cost 5x as much as the other one, but you get what you pay for: this one is built better, rings louder, rings longer, and because it’s solid brass, the sound quality is much nicer than the inexpensive one and inclement weather will not cause it to rust. So all in all, I’m very satisfied with this melodic little bell.

Nice and loud! Proper positioning is a must, love it!

Well built. Nice "shop door" ringing tone.

It's a nicely made bell, solid brass, and louder than I thought it would be. It's perfect for the front door of our small museum, and it'll let us know that someone came in. One major flaw with this bell is the way the clapper is attached. The clapper had a couple small loops of soft wire connecting it to a small bracket screwed to the top inside the bell. The loops are so soft that a gap opened up and the clapper had detached itself in transit. Rather than return this bell, I just unscrewed the bracket inside the bell, connected it with the clapper with a small keyring, and screwed the bracket into the bell. Now I am certain that the clapper will not come out when it's in use. See my pictures for details.

I’ve tried a couple electronic door chimes but they never last. Have used this for months and this has of course been 100% effective and reliable. A warning—insider than you’d expect!

I purchased this bell for my elderly Auntie Max who is partially blind and needed to be able to hear when someone arrived and especially departed her home. She’s very keen on knowing about things going on in and around here. This bell was the perfect compliment providing an added sense of security. She absolutely loves it! It does exactly what it is supposed to do and was easy to install. The bell is versatile and can be used on any door. If you’re leary about the esthetics, don’t be. It is pretty enough not to be an eye sore in your home or outside depending where you choose to install it. You can even spray paint it if you don’t like the color. Buy it and enjoy the peace of mind of knowing when someone is arriving and or departing.

Beautiful shape and melodic bell sound
