Is it very loud? I am looking for something loud so that if my father who has dementia opens the front door I will hear it ring.

it is loud but its the way you set it up as to how loud it rings-you could pretty much hear it as long as your not in the upstairs and with a tv on-but its a pretty good ring to it

It is loud enough so that if I'm in the back row of the theater it is plainly heard. I guess it depends how big your house is and where your father might be compared to where you are.

Yes! It is very loud. It is also very sturdy, well made. You should be able to hear it all over the house. You can also pull the clapper up or down for more or less volume and sensitivity.

This bell is brass and the clapper so it is a loud sound depending on how the door is opened or closed. I have an extra screw cap on it as the nut can work itself off the bolt..And I then have the nut that it came with screwed on loosely( not butted up tight). It creates a good 'rocking' action that makes the bell sound off at the least motion. Love this bell..

Sound is medium loud, best I can describe. I believe you could hear it several rooms away, unless a TV was blaring or something. Important: Do not expect this bell to ring 100% of the time, sometimes it will not ring if you open the door softly or gently. Best feature: this bell looks quite nice.

It is only loud if you play a higher pitch chime sound but not any louder than most other doorbells. If want to play audio or music it will not resolve your issue.

Ring is fairly loud. It is a metal striker against a metal cup. Of course, I have the stainless timer so the metal cup is mounted in a metal frame and that undoubtedly makes it a little louder. Good luck.

Not loud that loud. I can watch tv and walk on the fast pace up to 3 mph without turning up the volume. For me this has been the best one we have owned.

It's pretty loud. I wouldn't use it when anyone else is sleeping because it would wake them. It's not quite as loud as hair dryer but it's still pretty loud.

My is mounted on the inside of the door and it is certainly loud enough to here throughout the house. It produces a good sound. It would depend on how soundproof your door is.

K. I got this for a second house. I haven't been there since installed, but my nephew is saying that it is loud. Reach out 2/1, and I will give you an update.

It's pretty loud. I can hear it in other rooms as long as there is no real loud back round noise. It beeps for a pretty good while, but not in defitnilty. I was looking for a timer that was close to the one from Pampered Chef. This was as close as I could get. This one though is louder. Hope this helps!

it shouldnt be very loud. my mother in law got it to help keep her place cool and she says it worked great. she would have said if had been noisy. the only downside is it burnt out fast from leaving it on all night.

I don't remember it being loud, just a little motorized noise. You should return it and have it replaced if it's loud! Good luck!:)

Its fairly loud. But no real loud. If the individual is very hard of hearing I would not recommend it.

It is not real loud but is not quite. Our bedroom is right off the kitchen and we do not hear it. I will tell you it works great.

Yes. It is about as loud as a fire truck siren if toy are standing next to it though. And was very sensitive. Our door has a bit of a wiggle, when the wind blows the door moves slightly, it set the alarm off several times. I returned it. But yes it works worth any motion on the door, in or out.

I don't think it's particularly loud but you might. It's located in our basement. I can hear it when it runs but it's not like it disturbs us or we can't talk over it if u know what I mean. Let me put it this way: the washing machine is way louder. I expect it to get a work out this week with all the snow melt. Glad to have it. Worked like a champ last spring. Good luck.

The beep is loud enough to be heard in the next room, but I wouldn't consider it excessive - and I am very noise-averse. (I should have thought to ask that question before I bought it!) I don't use it for anything that produces a reminder beep; I'm not even sure it HAS a reminder beep.

It is not very loud at all. It is equivalent to a can of air used for keyboards. It is effective for correcting bad behavior. It does emit a sound that can only dogs hear along with the air. I love mine.
