    Hi,
    Ring doorbell seems v good, but looking for cheaper alternative.
    Don't need video, app linkup etc. Just something so people can ring from the gate & a 'buzzer' in the house that chimes/rings.
    Any recommendations please? Or better off buying a Ring, given they're not expensive & presumably tried & trusted?
    Thanks,
    Pa

    Did you check the likes of Argos?
    We bought a cheap doorbell that you just stick on the door or gate, and there are 2 receivers you plug in the house.

    My only experience of Ring was one that I bought that didn't work so it got replaced and that one didn't work either. So I got the electrician in and got the wire reconnected/fixed/whatever, which was in fact cheaper than the Ring.
