its not that loud but if someone put there ear to the door might hear it , on low they wouldn't hear it at all, even with there ear on the door . on high might be able to hear it if its all quiet and they put there ear to the door other wise I don think they can hear it through a door

It's not as loud as some i have heard (thinking of my dad's old shopsmith back in the day...that thing could wake up a dead stick). but its noticeable. I have it in my 2 car garage...i can turn it on, shut the door to the garage (it's a typical cheap thin interior door), walk to my bedroom on the opposite end of the house, and shut that door..and i can barely hear it (i could probably sleep with that level). my house has 50 yr old insulation in it's walls. it's reminiscent of a loud vacuum cleaner...no real tinny or metalic noise. hope that helps.

Ours is in an office laboratory with other noises as well so I can't really say if it's noisy. The only time I really hear it is when I open the door. Hopefully this helps with your decision.

It's definitely loud enough and you can pick a song/tune/sound that will make it louder. I'm quite hard of hearing and chose one that yells and I can hear it throughout the house (3200 sf). I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

if it is in your kitchen and you have your bedroom door wide open you'll likely hear it (depending on the distance). The sound is a smooth constant sound though. Its not like a crazy rattling noise. The unit is great though. its not fancy it just works really well. the fan is obviously what circulates the air and dries things so efficiently. i bet there are some quiet ones that dont work very well. and there may be some quiet ones that work well, but probably no where near this price.

No, it is not LOUD. It is barely adequate. But it is clear enough. I would never buy it again, not at half the price.

Interesting question. The sound of mine opening is barely perceptible, so I would have to say no, it's not supposed to open loudly.

It is not real loud. Loud enough to hear if you're in the same room, but not "smoke alarm" loud.

I wouldn't say its loud, but you can definitely hear it when it's on. Mine is hanging on a plaster wall not drywall.

Probably not. While its loud enough to hear clearly from the other end of my apartment I would think you would need something significantly louder to hear from a greater distance outdoors.

It is not loud. It;s very quiet. You can hear it while using it but it would to disturb others in an office.

It is fairly loud. Great door. Works very well, looks fantastic. You will know when you pet exits and enters this door

I use it as a makeshift door for my room above the garage. I can hardly hear any noise at all coming from downstairs. If you tacked them on the wall adjacent to a noisy neighbor it would for sure cut down on the sound.

Its not very loud. I have ours in a wood shelter. You have to be close to hear it.

It's not super quiet, but I don't think you can hear it through a closed door. I used it at work for a year in my closed office.

Reasonably loud. We can still hear it if we are downstairs while it is upstairs if it's quiet in the house. It uses a repeating double beep pattern.
