Does anyone know if the door bell itself waterproof? Want to put this on my grandsons backyard playset

I don't think it is water proof. Back cover isn't sealed. If you need to use it outside in the rain, put it in a zip lock bag.

I have one. Although I wouldn't call it waterproof it is in a secure plastic box.

It is NOT waterproof and would probably not last for long if left outside in the rain. It does have a belt clip on the back, so it can be easily clipped to his belt or temporarily affixed to the playset (or nearby).

I don't think so. I purchased it for indoor use and it does not appear that it would hold up to wet weather.

The part that goes into the door is a plastic coated magnet. The switch (contact) part is also enclosed in plastic with the two wires coming out of it. I would say it is to a degree it is very water resistant but to say it is waterproof doubtful.

No it is not waterproof. Most of the time the receiver box is the part that is waterproof.

No. It is not waterproof. I put one on the outside of the shower door -- also hung one in the bathroom on the grab bar.

Mine has been in a dooway outdoors where no water can reach it. Had it for 2 months and no problems so far. Very useful when visitors come to the front door. However, this light is not waterproof or even water resistant. If exposed to rain I am sure it will fail or get rusty.

No! And I was extremely disappointed because it was NOT waterproof at all! I Called Amazon and asked for a credit back. It's in my patio for her to play and run through, but if you're looking for something rain proof for outside- not a good choice.

Sorry, your email got lost in my stack! We LOVE our bell. It does mount to the door. Your door opens inside. I think it would work if it swings out. You just need to mount it low enough on the door so it is slightly lower than the top of the door. If you leave your door open with it on, the wind will probably make it ring and I don't know how it would do if it gets rained on. But, since I love mine so much, I'd say it is worth a try.

No. Its not waterproof. You can see a black speaker below the grill and nothing in between. Brgds

The housing is not completely waterproof, but I would say it's water resistant. It has a gasket where the two halves of the housing meet, and the button to turn the system on is insulated and sealed.Bottom line, if it gets wet, it's probably no big deal, just don't go submerging the thing. I kept mine on my basement floor, right next to the bucket and my makeshift shower, and I never had an issue.

Hi Susan, this doll is really great for the price but I don't think that it's truly waterproof. However, the Waterbabies line are 100% waterproof because they are actually made to fill w/water! My daughter had one & now my granddaughter has one and she absolutely loves it. They are a little more expensive but it is a very durable doll and super cute. I hope this helps. Debbi

I have mine under an awning, so it gets rained on a little and still works. It's technically outside, but I wouldn't call it waterproof.

If it is a typical door bell with 2 wires going to the actual push button I would suggest looking for a 2 conductor wire so you do not have to make 2 wire runs. I have purchased and used this in a marine environment but not exposed to the elements. The insulation on the wire is not all that thick.

Hi K., Mine has a lot of play too when the door is closed & locked. I think it is part of the design, and cannot be remediated. I believe that it is fine against a fire or theft. However, I think that there a risk a the docs getting wet in case of a flood. Have not tried this hypothesis though. I kept mine. (Did not return it.) Cheers Cam

Yes, it is waterproof. I only had pest visitors from up from the bottom because mine was on my deck. I don't know about the No-see-ums though. Ours come in April and I did not get this up until later.

Whatever is easiest for u. My bell is inside where it is heard best and protected from the weather. I then ran cheap plastic water line (1/2 inch). from there through the floor into the crawl space then through the brick foundation wall below ground level so it will be hidden and out of the way. Only the last 20 ft is the soft rubber hose that is needed for the bell to work properly. (it's kind of pricey) Every installation would be different. But again I would do whatever is easiest for u.

I can't verify if it's waterproof, but definitely designed for outdoor use!I have had it hanging from a rear garage exterior door for a couple of years with no problems.The keys are dry and the lock mechanism has always opened with ease every time.

Yes, our door remains shut closed with the hoop on it. I have on top of our shed door outside. We had it in the house at first and the playing drove me crazy. So all summer toys got moved outside for parental sanity.
