  • Dakota Alert DCRH-4K PLUS Rubber Hose Driveway Alarm Kit

    Dakota Alert DCRH-4K PLUS Rubber Hose Driveway Alarm Kit

    Looking for a driveway alarm that won’t drive you crazy with false alerts?

    Most motion-sensor alarms will go off if a large dog walks by, or sometimes just because it’s windy. The DCRH-4K PLUS takes a different approach – it uses a rubber hose laid across your driveway. When a car or truck rolls over the DCHT-4000 rubber hose sensor, the air pressure change triggers the alarm. Simple physics, reliable results.

    The system sends a wireless signal up to a mile away to let you know someone’s coming. If you’ve ever pulled into an old gas station and heard that “ding-dong” when you drove over the hose, you already know how this works. Dakota Alert just made it wireless and way more sophisticated.

    Hear Dakota Alert Driveway Alarm Receiver Sounds

    Listen to Dakota Receiver Sounds

    What makes this different from the regular DCRH-4000?

    Everything’s the same except for the receiver. Instead of just getting a basic chime box, you get the RE-4K-PLUS receiver, which has some handy connections on the back. You can wire it to strobe lights, louder sirens, or even integrate it with your existing security system through two relay outputs (with normally open, common, and normally closed contacts) plus a 12V DC output. Pretty useful if you need more than just a pleasant chime.

    The receiver also gives you 16 different alert sounds to choose from – everything from classic ding-dong chimes to Westminster bells, even fun ones like William Tell or Canon in D. You can tell the difference between your front gate and back entrance, or set up different tones for different family members if you’re running multiple sensors.

    Setting it up is pretty painless

    Just push the 25-foot rubber hose onto the transmitter nozzle and lay it across your driveway – no digging required. Mount the transmitter box on a wooden post or tree at least 4-5 feet off the ground for best range (avoid metal posts as they can interfere with the signal). The transmitter runs on a regular 9V battery that should last about a year.

    The receiver plugs into any wall outlet and pairs with the transmitter using simple code-learning – just hold the mode button, pick your chime, and press the button inside the transmitter box. Takes maybe five minutes total.

    The whole thing is built to handle weather from -30°F to 120°F, so you can set it and forget it. The transmitter box is weatherproof and the rubber hose can take whatever Mother Nature throws at it.

    Room to grow

    One nice thing about Dakota Alert’s system is that it all works together. You can add up to 16 different sensors to one receiver – maybe a motion detector for your back yard, a magnetic sensor for just detecting metal vehicles, or additional hose sensors for other driveways. Each one can have its own distinct chime so you know exactly what’s happening where.

    Advanced setup options

    The RE-4K-PLUS receiver has DIP switches on the back that let you customize exactly what happens when a sensor triggers. You can control whether the LEDs flash, whether it plays a chime, and whether the relay outputs activate. The relay and 12V outputs can be set to stay on for 1 second, 5 seconds, 15 seconds, or even 5 minutes – perfect for triggering lights that need to stay on long enough to be useful.

    Each of the 16 sensors you can connect can have completely different settings, so your front driveway might play Westminster chimes and turn on floodlights for 15 seconds, while your back gate just flashes the LEDs with no sound.

    Why Dakota Alert?

    They’ve been making these things for over 30 years from their shop in South Dakota. When you call their support line, you get real people who actually know the products. Everything comes with a standard 1-year warranty, and honestly, these things tend to just keep working.

    Whether you’re keeping an eye on deliveries at home, monitoring a business entrance, or just want to know when someone’s coming up your long driveway, this kit does the job without the headaches.

    Dakota Alert SMA-4000 Driveway Alarm Kit with Smart Receiver

    Driveway Alarm Kit with Motion Detector and Smart Receiver

    The Dakota Alert SMA-4000 combines a DCMT-4000 wireless motion detector transmitter with the SR-4000 smart receiver to create a driveway alarm kit for homes, shops, and small facilities. The motion detector mounts near the driveway and looks across approaching traffic. When it sees a person or vehicle in the monitored area, it sends a radio signal to the plug-in receiver inside the building, which provides an audible alert and can trigger connected devices or app notifications.

    This kit is intended for locations where it is useful to know when someone pulls into a drive or walks through an approach, without installing a full security system or running long low-voltage wires out to the driveway.

    DCMT-4000 Wireless Driveway Motion Detector

    The DCMT-4000 is a battery-powered motion detector designed for outdoor use along a driveway or approach. It uses passive infrared sensing to detect people or vehicles moving across its field of view. The range jumper allows the installer to set the detection distance to low (up to about 25 feet), medium (up to about 50 feet), or high (up to about 100 feet), so the monitored zone can be sized to the site rather than always running at maximum distance.

    A built-in transmitter sends the alarm signal wirelessly to the receiver. The DCMT-4000 runs from a single 9V alkaline battery and ships with both a plate mount and a swivel mount so it can be attached to posts, trees, or walls depending on the installation.

    • Detection method: passive infrared motion sensing for people and vehicles.
    • Selectable detection range: low up to 25 ft, medium up to 50 ft, high up to 100 ft.
    • Power source: 9V alkaline battery (not included).
    • Wireless range to receiver: up to about 1 mile line-of-sight, reduced by hills, trees, and buildings.
    • Housing size: approximately 4.5″ H x 3″ W x 2.25″ D.
    • Operating temperature: about -30°F to 120°F.
    • Operating frequency: 433 MHz.

    Driveway Sensor Mounting and Placement

    For driveway use, the DCMT-4000 is typically mounted on a wooden post or tree three to four feet off the ground and about twenty feet back from the edge of the drive, aimed across the lane rather than directly along it. This orientation lets the sensor see the side movement of vehicles and people as they pass through the beam, which produces a clearer motion signal.

    The manual notes that the sensor may occasionally see farther than the selected range, so it is best not to aim it at distant roads. The transmitter should be mounted on something rigid so it does not move in the wind, and steel posts are avoided when possible to keep signal quality consistent.

    • Recommended mounting height: about 3–4 feet above ground level.
    • Typical offset from drive: roughly 20 feet from the side of the drive.
    • Mounting surfaces: wood posts or trees preferred; avoid flimsy supports and small flexible trees.

    SR-4000 Smart Receiver for Indoor Alerts

    The SR-4000 smart receiver plugs into an indoor outlet and listens for signals from the DCMT-4000 and other Dakota Alert 4000 Series transmitters. When the driveway sensor activates, the SR-4000 plays one of its available chime tones. Different transmitters can use different tones, which makes it easier to tell driveway alerts from other zones.

    The receiver also supports app connectivity and low-voltage outputs. Depending on how it is set up, a driveway activation can ring a chime, send a notification through the Dakota Alert app, operate a small powered device on its 12VDC output, or close the built-in relay contacts.

    • Power: plug-in power supply (typically 12 VDC adapter included with receiver).
    • Audio alerts: multiple selectable melodies for different transmitters.
    • Wireless range from sensor: up to about 1 mile line-of-sight when conditions are favorable.

    Smartphone Alerts and Remote Indication

    When connected to the local network and configured with the Dakota Alert app, the SR-4000 can send a push-style notification each time the DCMT-4000 reports motion. This gives an additional path for driveway alerts beyond the audible chime, which can be helpful when the receiver is in a noisy area or when staff are away from the immediate chime location but still on site.

    In many installations, the chime tone provides the primary alert during normal operation, while the phone notification serves as a backup or a way to keep a record of recent driveway activity.

    • Notification type: push notifications through the Dakota Alert app.
    • Use case: add phone alerts alongside the receiver’s built-in chime.

    12VDC Outputs and Form C Relay on the SR-4000

    The SR-4000 smart receiver includes 12VDC outputs and a Form C relay contact. These can be tied to other devices that should react when the driveway sensor activates. For example, the 12VDC terminal can power a small strobe, buzzer, or other low-current indicator, while the relay can connect to an alarm input, automation controller, or other equipment that expects a dry contact.

    Because the outputs are on the receiver, the wiring for any add-on device stays inside the building near the receiver rather than going out to the driveway location.

    • 12VDC output: switched low-voltage output for compatible accessories.
    • Relay contacts: Form C (common, normally open, normally closed) dry contact.
    • Typical uses: drive a strobe, external sounder, dialer, or system input when the drive is triggered.

    Dakota Alert 4000 Series Compatibility

    Both components in the SMA-4000 kit are part of the Dakota Alert 4000 Series. The SR-4000 can learn multiple transmitters, so additional driveway sensors, motion sensors, or other 4000 Series devices can be added later if needed. Each transmitter can be set to its own tone and zone.

    This lets the system start as a driveway alert and grow into a more complete property alert setup while using the same receiver hardware.

    • Series: compatible with Dakota Alert 4000 Series transmitters and receivers.
    • Number of transmitters: receiver can learn multiple transmitters for different areas.

    What Comes in the SMA-4000 Kit

    • One DCMT-4000 wireless motion detector transmitter with plate and swivel mounts.
    • One SR-4000 smart receiver with plug-in power adapter.
    • Mounting screws for the DCMT-4000 brackets.
    • Printed documentation for both components.
  • Dakota Alert SMAPR-4000 Indoor Motion Entrance Alert with SR-4000 Smart Receiver

    Dakota Alert SMAPR-4000 Indoor Motion Entrance Alert with SR-4000 Smart Receiver

    Indoor Motion Entrance Alert with Smart Receiver

    The Dakota Alert SMAPR-4000 is an indoor motion entrance alert kit that combines a PIR-4000 passive infrared motion sensor with the SR-4000 smart receiver to provide door and hallway alerts, smartphone notifications, and integration options through 12VDC outputs and a Form C relay contact. When the PIR sensor detects movement, the transmitter sends a wireless signal to the plug-in receiver, which plays a selected chime tone and can also trigger external equipment or app-based notifications.

    Motion Detection for Doors, Hallways, and Interior Entrances

    The PIR-4000 passive infrared sensor is designed to detect people walking through a defined indoor area, making it suitable for use as a store entrance alert, hallway motion alert, or interior doorway notification in retail, office, and light commercial settings. Installed near a doorway or corridor, the sensor watches for body heat movement within its coverage pattern and sends a wireless signal when motion is detected.

    This type of motion entrance alert is useful where staff need a simple indication that someone has come through a door or entered a monitored interior space, without installing a full alarm panel or complex security system.

    • Typical placements: interior doorways, hall entrances, small lobbies, and point-of-sale approaches.
    • Detection method: passive infrared sensing of people moving through the coverage area.
    • Use cases: customer entrance alert, backroom notice when someone comes in, basic interior monitoring.

    PIR-4000 Indoor Motion Sensor Details

    The PIR-4000 is a compact, battery-powered indoor motion detector that monitors a defined area for walking traffic. It operates from a CR-123A lithium battery and is sized for unobtrusive mounting near ceilings, in corners, or above door frames. The sensor uses passive infrared technology to look for changes in heat caused by people moving through its detection field.

    When motion is detected, the PIR-4000 transmits a wireless signal to a compatible Dakota Alert 4000 Series receiver, such as the SR-4000 smart receiver included in this SRPR-4000 kit. This wireless link allows the sensor to be installed where it has the best view of the monitored area, without needing to run low-voltage signal wires back to the receiver.

    • Power source: CR-123A lithium battery.
    • Indoor use: intended for interior spaces such as entries, hallways, and rooms.
    • Wireless operation: sends alerts to Dakota Alert 4000 Series receivers.

    SR-4000 Smart Receiver with Plug-In Entrance Alert Chime

    The SR-4000 smart receiver is a plug-in unit that listens for signals from the PIR-4000 and other Dakota Alert 4000 Series transmitters and provides local audio alerts plus smart notification features. When the PIR-4000 detects motion, the SR-4000 can play one of its built-in melodies so staff know that someone has entered the monitored area. The receiver plugs into a standard outlet, making it easy to locate in an office, counter area, or back room where the chime needs to be heard.

    In addition to entrance alert chimes, the SR-4000 connects to the Dakota Alert app over Wi‑Fi, allowing smartphone-style notifications when the motion sensor is triggered. This helps ensure alerts are not missed in noisy environments or when the chime is not in direct earshot.

    • Audio alerts: multiple selectable melodies for different zones.
    • Plug-in design: powered by 12 VDC adapter, compact form factor.
    • Wireless range: up to approximately 1 mile line-of-sight from compatible transmitters (actual range depends on site conditions)

    Wi‑Fi Connectivity and Smartphone Notifications

    The SR-4000 receiver supports Wi‑Fi connectivity and works with the Dakota Alert mobile app to provide push notifications when an entrance alert is triggered. When the PIR-4000 detects motion and sends a signal to the SR-4000, the receiver can activate its chime and also send a notification through the app, providing a text-style alert on a compatible smartphone.

    This configuration allows the SRPR-4000 kit to function as both a local motion entrance chime and a remote notification device, which is particularly useful when staff move between areas of a building or when a single receiver must cover multiple zones.

    • App support: Dakota Alert app for smartphone notifications.
    • Notification type: push-style alerts when a new motion event is received
    • Intended use: supplement audible chimes with phone-based entrance alerts.

    12VDC Outputs and C‑FORM Relay for Integration

    In addition to chime tones and app notifications, the SR-4000 smart receiver provides low-voltage outputs and a Form C relay that can be used to drive external devices or interface with other systems. The 12VDC outputs can be configured to activate when a specific zone is triggered, allowing connection to accessories such as indicator lights, small sirens, or other low-voltage signaling equipment (within rated current limits).

    The built-in Form C relay contact offers a dry-contact interface suitable for integration with alarm inputs, automation controllers, or third-party notification hardware.] This allows installers to use the SMA-4000 as both an entrance alert and a triggering device for broader security or automation applications where a contact closure is required.

    • Outputs: 12VDC output terminals on the SR-4000 for external signaling devices.
    • Relay type: Form C relay contact for dry-contact integration.
    • Integration options: connect to strobes, external sounders, dialers, or automation inputs where appropriate.

    Dakota Alert 4000 Series Compatibility and Expansion

    The SMAPR-4000 kit is part of the Dakota Alert 4000 Series, so the SR-4000 smart receiver can work with multiple transmitters on the same system. In addition to the included PIR-4000 motion sensor, you can add driveway sensors, beam sensors, or other 4000 Series transmitters and assign different tones or notifications for each zone.

    This approach allows a single SR-4000 receiver to handle door and hallway motion alerts, driveway alerts, or outdoor approach alerts across a property, with each device using its own wireless channel and identification.

    • Series: compatible with Dakota Alert 4000 Series transmitters.
    • Multiple zones: supports pairing with multiple sensors for different entrances and areas.

  • Dakota Alert Smart Break Beam 4000 Wi‑Fi Driveway Alarm With Solar Wireless Sensors, 1‑Mile Range

    Dakota Alert Smart Break Beam 4000 Wi‑Fi Driveway Alarm With Solar Wireless Sensors, 1‑Mile Range

    Smart Solar Break Beam Driveway Alarm System

    The Dakota Alert Smart Break Beam 4000 is a solar-powered wireless driveway alarm that uses a pair of infrared break beam sensors to monitor driveways, lanes, and outdoor entry points. When the invisible beam between the sensors is interrupted by a vehicle or person, the system sends a wireless signal to the included smart receiver to provide a clear driveway and perimeter alert.

    Wireless Infrared Beam Sensors for Driveways and Perimeter Zones

    The system includes two electronic break beam sensors that are installed facing each other across a monitored area, creating an invisible infrared detection zone between them. The sensors are designed for use on residential driveways, farm lanes, private roads, building entrances, and other exterior access points where you want a reliable outdoor alert when someone enters the property.

    Because the sensors use a point-to-point beam between the two housings, they help reduce unwanted activations from movement outside the beam path. Mounted at the correct height, the beam can be positioned to detect people and vehicles while avoiding most ground-level movement.

    • Application areas: residential driveways, private lanes, gate entrances, parking areas, barns, shops, and storage yards.
    • Detection method: infrared beam broken between two aligned sensor units.
    • Typical use: driveway entry alert, perimeter notification, and approach alert for outbuildings.

    Solar-Powered Wireless Break Beam Design

    Each Smart Break Beam 4000 sensor housing contains an internal rechargeable battery that is maintained by an integrated solar panel. This design allows the driveway alarm sensors to operate without running power cables, which is especially useful on long driveways or remote gate locations where power is not readily available.

    The sensors communicate wirelessly back to the receiver, so only the receiver requires a nearby power outlet. The combination of solar power and wireless communication makes it practical to place the sensors where they provide the best detection coverage rather than only where wiring is convenient.

    • Power source: internal rechargeable battery with built-in solar charging.
    • Wiring: no low-voltage power wiring required at the sensor locations.
    • Placement flexibility: mount sensors on posts, gate frames, or exterior walls within line-of-sight.

    Long-Range Wireless Driveway Alarm with Smart Receiver

    When the beam is broken, the sensor pair sends a wireless signal to the SR-4000 smart receiver located inside the home or business. The wireless range between the break beam sensors and the receiver is designed for long-distance communication, suitable for many long driveways and property layouts where shorter-range systems are not practical.

    The smart receiver connects to the local Wi-Fi network and works with the Dakota Alert mobile app. This allows you to receive driveway alarm notifications on a smartphone in addition to audible alerts from the receiver.

    • Receiver location: typically installed inside the home, office, or shop.
    • Alert types: on-board chime tones plus app-based notifications when connected to Wi-Fi.
    • Use cases: get notified when a vehicle enters the driveway, when someone walks up to a gate, or when a delivery arrives.

    Wi‑Fi Driveway Alarm with App Notifications

    The Smart Break Beam 4000 system uses the Wi‑Fi-enabled SR‑4000 receiver to integrate with the Dakota Alert app. Once connected to your network, the receiver can send push notifications to a compatible smartphone or tablet whenever the break beam sensors are triggered. This is helpful when you are elsewhere on the property, inside a noisy environment, or away from the building.

    Within the app, you can assign names or labels to individual zones so that each alert clearly identifies which driveway or entry point was activated. This allows the Smart Break Beam 4000 to function as part of a broader smart driveway and perimeter alert system across the property.

    • Wi‑Fi connectivity: connects to your existing wireless network.
    • Mobile alerts: push notifications on compatible smart devices.
    • Zone labeling: identify specific driveways, gates, or building entrances.

    Dakota Alert 4000 Series Compatibility and Expansion

    This Smart Break Beam 4000 kit is part of the Dakota Alert 4000 Series, allowing it to work alongside other 4000 Series driveway alarm transmitters and receivers. The SR‑4000 receiver can monitor multiple transmitters, so you can add additional break beam sensors, driveway probe sensors, or motion sensors to cover multiple areas on the same property.

    For properties already using a Dakota Alert 4000 Series system, the Smart Break Beam 4000 provides a way to add an infrared beam zone while retaining compatibility with existing equipment. The system can be used to create a combination of driveway alarms, entrance alerts, and perimeter alerts using a single family of wireless devices.

    • Series: Dakota Alert 4000 Series compatible.
    • Expansion: add multiple transmitters for different driveways and zones.
    • Integration: can be used with other 4000 Series receivers and transmitters (where supported).

    Typical Installation and Placement Considerations

    When installing the Smart Break Beam 4000, both beam sensor housings must be mounted so that the lenses align and maintain a clear line-of-sight. The distance between the two sensors should be within the rated infrared range of the system. It is important to choose mounting heights and positions that provide reliable detection for the intended targets while minimizing unwanted activations.

    For driveway monitoring, many installers mount the sensors on posts or existing structures on either side of the drive. The receiver is placed near a power outlet in a central location where the Wi‑Fi signal is stable and the audible chime can be heard as needed.

    • Line-of-sight: ensure the beam path between sensors is not blocked by vegetation or structures.
    • Mounting height: set height to detect vehicles and people while avoiding small animals where possible.
    • Receiver placement: install indoors where it has a reliable wireless link to both sensors and Wi‑Fi.

    Common Uses of the Long-Range Wireless Alarm for Driveways

    Use as a Long Range Driveway Sensor Alarm?

    The most apparent use of the Driveway Informer Pro (ERA-DSDCR) by Safeguard Supply is as a Long Range Wireless Alarm for the Driveway.  By mounting the wireless motion sensor outside and aiming the sensor across the driveway or other entrances, you will get an immediate notification when a car or person passes through the monitored zone when the sensor detects movement and heat.  This helps eliminate false alarms caused by standard motion sensors and helps improve home security. The sensor (ERA-DSTX) can be placed up 4,000 ft from the receiver, typically in your home.

    Use as a notification alerting device for your office.

    Another common but less obvious use of this driveway alarm kit is to alert warehouse workers when delivery drivers enter your area.  For example, at our offices, several commercial delivery companies drive up to our facility daily.  FedEx, UPS, and the post office deliver daily.  We have the driveway sensor/transmitter mounted to a tree, shooting across the parking lot area where the delivery trucks would approach.  When they come and pass through the sensor’s invisible beam, the sensor detects motion and heat, triggering an instant alert in the office.  That provides our warehouse manager additional time to prepare the packages, and the door is unlocked for the delivery team.

    Use with Other Products in the Safeguard Supply ERA Line of Products

    The sensor in this kit is the ERA-DSTX driveway sensor/transmitter, and it’s fully compatible with all other products in the ERA family.

    ERA-DCRX – this is the receiver featured in this kit.  Additional receivers are available to expand the notification and listening areas to other rooms of your home and office or business.  There’s no limit to the number of receivers you can add.  Pair up to 12 different sensors/transmitters to each DCRX receiver.

    ERA-VPRX -This optional portable receiver plays a melody and vibrates when it receives a signal from a compatible ERA transmitter.  The receiver ships with an installed rechargeable battery and charger, with a standby time of up to 6 days.  Stick it in your pocket or sit it on your desk to ensure you never miss a delivery or alert.

    ERA-UTX – The ERA “Universal Transmitter” may be used as a door/window contact or a push button.  Rugged and outdoor rated, with a range from the receiver of up to 4,000 ft., this transmitter is rock-solid and reliable.

    ERA-PIR– This indoor-rated PIR, passive infrared motion sensor, monitors a doorway or hallway.  This product is an excellent customer service tool that is easily mounted using the included bracket.  Mount over a door entrance to signal whenever a customer enters your store.

    The heart of the DCPA-4K-PLUS is its magnetometer probe, designed to detect metallic objects within a 12-13 feet range. This probe is buried under the driveway or parallel to your driveway, creating an invisible detection zone that spans the width of your driveway. When a vehicle passes through this zone, the probe senses the change in the magnetic field, triggering the transmitter to send a wireless signal to the receiver.

    The transmitter is powered by three long-lasting CR123A lithium batteries (included), ensuring reliable operation in extreme temperatures ranging from -30°F to 120°F. It transmits a signal to the included receiver, which can be placed anywhere in your home or office up to a line-of-sight distance of 5,000 feet. The number of receivers you can add to your system is unlimited.

    Customizable Alerts on the RE-4K PLUS Receiver

    The receiver is a versatile unit that can work with up to 16 different transmitters or sensors, each with its unique melody. This feature allows you to assign different sounds for each driveway or approach to your property, enabling you to identify which transmitter was triggered easily. The receiver plugs into a standard wall outlet and can be placed on a flat surface or mounted on the wall.

    Integrate the Dakota Alert Receiver with Existing Systems

    The DCPA-4K-PLUS receiver is designed to seamlessly integrate with existing security systems, guard gates, or other automation devices. It features a C-Form relay and a 12V DC output, allowing you to connect additional devices such as strobe lights, sirens, or fire alarm bells.

    Easy Installation and Maintenance of the DCPA-4K-PLUS

    Thanks to its straightforward design and included accessories, installing the DCPA-4K-PLUS is a breeze. The magnetic probe can be buried under or parallel to the driveway, from 3”-12” deep. It is connected to the transmitter via 50 feet of burial cable, allowing you to conceal the transmitter and mount it discreetly on a nearby post or tree. Additional cable lengths are available for purchase if needed.

    Increased Awareness and Security Monitoring Your Driveway

    The DCPA-4K-PLUS Dakota Alert Driveway Alarm is an excellent choice for homeowners, businesses, and farm owners seeking increased awareness and security.

  • DCPT-4000 Driveway Sensor for Cars Only by Dakota Alert

    DCPT-4000 Driveway Sensor for Cars Only by Dakota Alert

    Detect Cars and Trucks Only with the DCPT-4000 Probe Driveway Sensor

    Protect your property and stay aware of visitors with the Dakota Alert DCPT-4000 driveway sensor. This innovative sensor detects vehicles only and eliminates false alarms from animals, pedestrians, or other non-metallic objects.

    Reliable Vehicle Detection with Magnetometer Probe

    The DCPT-4000 utilizes a magnetometer probe that creates a magnetic field. When a large metallic object, such as a car or truck, passes through this field, the sensor triggers and sends a wireless signal to a compatible Dakota Alert receiver (sold separately).

    No More False Alarms from Animals or Pedestrians

    Unlike traditional motion sensors, the DCPT-4000 is specifically calibrated to detect vehicles only. This means you won’t be bothered by false alarms from wildlife, pets, or people walking by.

    Easy Installation and Hidden Design

    The probe is easily buried underground, parallel to your driveway, and connects to a weatherproof transmitter box with 50 feet of direct burial wire. This lets you conceal the transmitter discreetly, keeping your driveway sensor out of sight.

    Additional Product Features

    • 50 feet of burial wire for flexible installation
    • Weatherproof transmitter, probe, and wire for outdoor durability
    • Powered by 3 x CR-123A lithium batteries (not included)
    • Operates in temperatures from -30°F to 120°F
    • Backed by a one-year manufacturer’s warranty

    This is the Magnetometer probe-based driveway sensor used in the DCPA-4000 kit by Dakota Alert.  A magnetometer probe driveway sensor will trigger when metallic objects pass through the magnetic zone created by the probe. Bury the white probe parallel or under your driveway. When a heavy metallic object (like a car) drives over or near the sensor (approximately 10-12′ away), it triggers and sends a radio signal to the compatible Dakota Alert receiver, such as the DCR-4000 or the RE-4K PLUS.

    NOTE: This is the sensor/transmitter only. Must use compatible Dakota Alert 4000 receiver.

    The probe has 50′ of direct burial wire, allowing you to bury the probe parallel to your driveway or under the driveway, and connects to a ruggedized black transmitter box. This box will send the radio signal to a compatible Dakota Alert receiver, such as the DCR-4000 or the RE-4K-PLUS, and when the signal is received, the receiver will play the selected ringtone. Since the black box has 50′ of burial cable connecting it to the probe, you can hide the black box in a stealth location. The transmitter is weatherproof and can work in temperatures of -30F to 120F.

    Won’t Generate False Driveway Alarms

    The DCPT-4000 probe/transmitter works excellently in areas where you only want to pick up vehicle traffic. People, deer, raccoons, and other animals will not trigger the probe. In addition, since the probe will be buried underground, it is hidden from onlookers.

    For detailed information about the DCPT-4000, please visit one of the pages where it is featured in a kit such as the DCPA-4K-PLUS.

    DCPT-4000 Product Features

    • The magnetometer-based sensor only picks up metallic objects passing through the zone.
    • The probe is rugged and comes with 50′ of burial wire (connects to the transmitter box).
    • The transmitter, probe, and wire are weatherproof.
    • 3 x CR-123 A lithium batteries power the transmitter.
    • Works in a climate of -30F to 120F.
    • One-year manufacturer’s warranty.
  • DCPA-4000 Dakota Alert Drive Over Driveway Alarm

    DCPA-4000 Dakota Alert Drive Over Driveway Alarm

    DCPA-4000 Dakota Alert Drive Over Driveway Alarm: The Ultimate Solution for Rural Home Security

    Unlike PIR (passive-infrared) based driveway alarm sensors, the DCPA-4000 kit by Dakota Alert is a drive over driveway alarm, meaning it has an underground driveway alarm sensor that is buried underground and detects cars or other heavy metallic objects.  This is ideal when you live in a rural area or want a driveway gate alarm, or any area for that matter, where animals may trigger your sensor.   When a car or truck passes within 10′-12′ ft. of the buried probe, the sensor transmits a wireless signal over 5,000 ft. away to the receiver.

    Key Features of the Dakota Alert DCPA-4000:

    • Underground Magnetometer Probe: The DCPT-4000 transmitter is a state-of-the-art magnetometer driveway probe, discreetly buried alongside or under your driveway. It’s ideal for dirt or gravel driveways and comes with a 50-foot direct burial wire connected to an outdoor-rated transmitter box.
    • Long-Range Wireless Transmission: When a metallic object like a car or truck passes within 10-12 feet of the probe, the sensor transmits a wireless signal up to 5,000 feet to the DCR-4000 Plug-in Chime Receiver, ensuring you’re alerted no matter where you are on your property.
    • Battery-Powered for Convenience: The transmitter is powered by 3 x CR123A lithium batteries, included with domestic orders, ensuring long-lasting, maintenance-free operation.
    • Customizable Alerts: The receiver offers volume control and a choice of 16 different melodies, allowing you to personalize how you’re notified.
    • Expandable System: Compatible with the Dakota 4000 series, this system can work with up to 16 different sensors, providing comprehensive coverage for your property.
    • Durable and Reliable: With an operating temperature range of -30F to 120F and a one-year manufacturer’s warranty, the DCPA-4000 is built to last.

    Why Choose the DCPA-4000?

    • Specific Detection: The system is designed to detect only large metallic objects, ensuring that people and wildlife won’t trigger false alarms.
    • Versatile Placement: The probe’s design allows for flexible installation options, either parallel to or directly under your driveway.
    • Extended Range: The 5,000 ft. line-of-sight range varies by environment but ensures reliable performance in most rural settings.

    This kit features two main components; 1 x DCPT-4000 Magnetometer Probe Transmitter and 1 x DCR-4000 Plug-in Chime Receiver.   The transmitter is a magnetometer driveway probe buried in the ground parallel to your driveway or even under the driveway (if the driveway is dirt or gravel).  The probe has 50′ of wire connected to a transmitter box powered by 3 x CR123a lithium batteries (included for domestic orders, not international orders).  When a large metallic object passes through the magnetic zone (10′-12′) emitted by the probe, it triggers the transmitter to send a signal to the compatible receiver. It does not trigger until a car drives over or near the buried magnetometer probe sensor.

    DCR-4000 Dakota Alert Receiver for use in DCPA 4000 Dakota Alert Drive Over Driveway Alarm
    DCPT-4000 Dakota Alerts Magnetometer Probe Transmitter Only

    As stated above, the transmitter/sensor is buried underneath the driveway or parallel. If you want to use it for a driveway gate alarm, it must be buried under or directly parallel to the driveway gate. The driveway probe sensor ships with 50′ of wire that connects the buried driveway sensor to a small black box. This box is usually mounted on a post or a tree near the driveway. When a metallic object drives over the probe, the black box transmits a radio signal up to 5,000 ft. to the compatible receiver, the DCR-4000, and/or the PR-4000 portable vibrating driveway chime receiver.

    The receiver in the kit is the DCR-4000 receiver.  Simply plug the receiver into a standard wall outlet and program it to the transmitter/sensor by picking one of twelve available melodies.  When triggered, the receiver will play that tune.  The receiver may be located up to 1 mile from the transmitter, line-of-site.  Environmental factors such as hilly terrain, wooded areas, and building materials will reduce the transmission range; however, with a range of up to 5,000 ft., this setup works in most scenarios.

    The receiver has 12 sounds, with four-volume adjustment levels from mute to approximately 85 dB.  The transmitter and receiver are compatible with all Dakota products in the 4000 series, such as the UT-4000 and the DCMA-4000 Driveway Monitoring System.  This means you could add receivers throughout your home or office to distribute the sound, pushbuttons, and PIR-based motion sensors to your system.

    The DCPA-4000 Dakota Alert Drive Over Driveway Alarm is not just a product; it’s your peace of mind in rural home security. Say goodbye to false alarms and hello to reliable, specific detection. Secure your property today with Dakota Alert’s innovative solution.

  • DCRH-4000 Dakota Alert Rubber Hose Driveway Alarm 5,000 ft. Range

    DCRH-4000 Dakota Alert Rubber Hose Driveway Alarm 5,000 ft. Range

    Remember the days when you pulled into a gas station or through the dry-cleaners drive-thru over the rubber hose to hear the ding sound?  The DCRH-4000 by Dakota Alert is a Rubber Hose Driveway Alarm-1 Mile Range product activated when a car drives over the rubber hose included in the kit.  Although the technology of rolling over a rubber hose has been around for a long time, it continues to be a very reliable form of driveway alarm.  A heavy object rolling over the rubber hose triggering the sensor eliminates false alarms by things like animals, falling leaves, etc.

    Couple that reliability with the power of a 5000 ft. wireless range, and you have a beautiful marriage.    The Dakota Alert DCRH-4000 is a pneumatic (rubber hose) sensor-based driveway alert system that will transmit a wireless signal up to 5000 ft. (line of sight).  The kit comes with 25 feet (3/8” diameter) of rubber hose connected to a transmitter box.  The transmitter is powered by a 1 x 9V (not included) battery. When triggered (car rolling over hose), the transmitter sends a wireless radio signal up to 1 mile away to the included chime receiver.

    How the DCRH-4000 Rubber Hose Driveway Alarm Kit Works

    When triggered, the receiver will play the selected melody (16 to choose from).  You can purchase additional receivers (DCR-4000) to distribute the sound throughout the area where you want to hear the sound.  The receiver features a volume selector button and may locate up to 1 mile from the rubber-hose transmitter.

    Drive Over Hose DCRH-4000 Kit by Dakota Alert Features:

    • Kit includes 1 x DCHT-4000 rubber hose transmitter (9V battery included), 1 x DCR-4000 receiver, and a user guide.
    • The transmitter includes a 25′ rubber hose (installed over the hard surface).
    • The sensor/transmitter is outdoor rated and operates at -30F to 120F.
    • The wireless range (from transmitter to receiver) is up to 5,000 ft.
    • The transmitter’s power source is a 9V alkaline battery (included).
    • The receiver plugs into a standard wall outlet.
    • Operates at 433.92 MHz.
    • Manufactured by Dakota Alert
    • 1-year manufacturer’s warranty.
    • The receiver plugs into a standard wall outlet.
    • The receiver will play one of 12 melodies.
    • Expandable by adding more receivers and more receivers, up to 16.

    The DCRH-400o is a rubber hose-activated driveway alarm kit triggered when a car or truck rolls over the included rubber hose.  This pressure change in the hose activates the sensor, then transmits a radio signal up to 5,000 feet to the included receiver.

    The kit includes 25 feet of rubber hose that you would stretch across a driveway or other paved surface. Connected to the rubber hose is a transmitter powered by a 9V alkaline battery (included). The rubber hose and transmitter are outdoor and weatherproof rated. When an automobile rolls over, the air pressure in the hose triggers the transmitter. It instantly transmits the radio signal to the receiver, playing a selected melody or chime sound.

    Want More Hose?

    At secure.1800doorbell.com, we sell the pneumatic rubber hose, the same size used in the DCHT-4000 transmitter sensor. As stated above, the kit comes with 25′ feet of hose, but you can extend the hose length by purchasing an additional 3/8” pneumatic driveway hose. To extend the hose, you need a 3/8” to 3/8” barb splicer to join the two hose pieces together.

    Up to 16 different sensors/transmitters are compatible with each receiver, such as the DCMT-4000 PIR driveway sensor, the DCPA-4000 probe sensor that detects cars only, and the UT-4000 universal transmitter. When assigned to the DCR-4000, each transmitter will play a selected melody enabling you to distinguish between a triggered sensor.

    In addition to adding transmitters/sensors, you can add an unlimited number of receivers to this kit, such as the included DCR-4000, the PR-4000 portable receiver, and the RE-4k-PLUS receiver with 12V outputs and a C-form relay. Note: the kit includes the DCR-4000 receiver. A similar kit on this website, the DCRH-4K PLUS, has the same transmitter but features the RE-4K-PLUS.

  • DCHT-4000  Dakota Alert Rubber Driveway Hose Transmitter

    DCHT-4000 Dakota Alert Rubber Driveway Hose Transmitter

    Old meets new.  When a car or truck rolls over the rubber hose (old school), the transmitter sends a radio signal to the DCR-4000 & RE-4K PLUS receivers, and a chime sound is played at the remote location (new school).  The rubber hose stretches across a driveway, and the pressure of a heavy car or truck causes the transmitter to send the signal.  You can plug the receiver into a standard wall outlet up to 5,000 away from the transmitter, and it will play a chime sound.

    The blending of old and new technology can be seen in the way a vehicle detection system works. This system involves the use of a rubber hose, a transmitter, and a receiver – the DCR-4000 & RE-4K PLUS. This technique merges traditional practices with advanced technologies to offer an efficient and reliable solution.

    The rubber hose, which epitomizes the conventional or old-school method, is positioned across a driveway. When a vehicle, such as a car or truck, rolls over the hose, the pressure exerted by the heavy vehicle triggers the transmitter. This is an example of a simple yet effective manual mechanism that has been in use for many years.

    The transmitter, which is a part of the modern or new school technology, then sends a radio signal to the receivers, the DCR-4000 & RE-4K PLUS. These receivers are designed to pick up the signal from the transmitter, no matter where they are placed, as long as they are within a range of 5,000 feet. This is a clear demonstration of how recent advancements in technology have significantly increased the scope and efficiency of such systems.

    Once the receivers get the signal from the transmitter, they play a chime sound at the remote location. This sound serves as an alert to notify individuals at the remote location that a vehicle has arrived or left the driveway. The receiver can be conveniently plugged into a standard wall outlet, making it easy to install and use. This also means it can be placed in various locations, depending on where the sound alert is required.

    Therefore, this system is a perfect example of how old meets new, showcasing the best of both worlds. It combines the simplicity and effectiveness of traditional methods with the advancement and convenience of modern technology to provide a reliable and efficient solution for vehicle detection.

    The DCHT-4000 is the transmitter only and must be used with a compatible receiver, either the DCR-2500 desktop receiver or the PR-4000 portable receiver.  The DCHT-4000 comes with a 25 feet 3/8” diameter rubber hose connected to a wireless transmitter powered by a 9-volt battery (not included).  It will transmit a signal up to 1/2 mile away to one of the compatible receivers.  Environmental factors such as terrain, building materials, and other factors may reduce the range.   Note: this transmitter is only compatible with the 4000 series receivers

    • Pneumatic rubber hose in length 25.’
    • Hose is 3/8” diameter
    • Transmits radio signal to the compatible receiver up to 5,000 ft. when triggered

    Complete Wired Doorbell Kit with Two Lighted Buttons and Transformer

    Transform your home’s entry system with the CK225 Complete Wired Door Chime Kit, the all-in-one solution for professional doorbell installation. Whether you’re a homeowner tackling a DIY project, a contractor working on new construction, or a property manager upgrading existing door chimes, this comprehensive kit eliminates the hassle of sourcing individual components and ensures perfect compatibility between all parts.

    Everything You Need in One Convenient Package

    The CK225 kit removes the confusion from doorbell installation by bundling four essential components into one complete system. You’ll receive the DH110 wired door chime, two premium lighted push buttons, and a professional-grade transformer – everything required for immediate installation on one or two doors. This thoughtfully curated package saves you time, money, and the frustration of compatibility concerns.

    DH110 Wired Door Chime: Classic Design Meets Reliable Performance

    At the heart of this kit is the DH110 rectangular wired chime, featuring an attractive white housing accented with sophisticated gold trim that complements any interior décor. This dependable chime unit produces clear, pleasant tones that are easily heard throughout your home. The two-tone front door chime and single-tone rear door chime allow you to instantly identify which entrance your visitors are using, adding convenience to your daily routine.

    The DH110’s compact dimensions make it suitable for installation in hallways, kitchens, utility rooms, or any central location where you’ll hear visitors arrive. Its classic rectangular design has proven popular with homeowners for decades, offering timeless styling that never goes out of fashion.

    Premium Lighted Push Buttons for Enhanced Visibility

    The CK225 kit includes two high-quality lighted doorbell buttons that make your entrances easy to find, even in low-light conditions or after dark. The DH1408L gold-finish lighted button and DH1405L white lighted button provide illumination that guides guests to your door while adding an upscale touch to your home’s exterior.

    These weather-resistant buttons are engineered to withstand the elements, from scorching summer heat to freezing winter temperatures. The integrated lighting not only serves a practical purpose but also adds curb appeal and makes your home more welcoming to visitors, delivery drivers, and guests arriving after sunset.

    DT-1610 Transformer: Reliable Power for Your Doorbell System

    Powering your doorbell system is the DT-1610 transformer, a professional-grade 16-volt, 10VA unit designed for long-lasting, trouble-free operation. This essential component converts your home’s electrical current to the safe, low voltage required by your doorbell system. The transformer’s robust construction ensures years of reliable service, providing consistent power to both your chime and lighted buttons.

    Proper transformer sizing is critical for doorbell performance, and the 10VA rating is perfectly matched to this system’s requirements, ensuring optimal operation without overloading or underperforming.

    Versatile Installation Options for Single or Dual-Door Applications

    One of the CK225 kit’s greatest strengths is its flexibility. Install it as a single-door system using just one button, or take advantage of both included buttons for complete coverage of your front and back entrances. The wired configuration provides reliable, interference-free operation without batteries to replace or wireless signals to maintain.

    The dual-tone feature makes two-door installations particularly practical – when someone presses the front door button, you’ll hear two chimes; the back door produces a single chime. This audible distinction helps you know which door to answer without having to check both.

    Ideal for Multiple Applications

    This complete wired doorbell kit serves various installation scenarios. Homeowners appreciate having all components in one package for new installations or replacements. Contractors value the convenience and guaranteed compatibility when outfitting new construction or renovation projects. Property managers find the kit economical for upgrading multiple units. The professional-quality components ensure reliable performance whether installed in single-family homes, duplexes, apartments, or small offices.

    Quality Components with Peace of Mind

    Every component in the CK225 kit is manufactured to exacting standards, backed by a one-year warranty that demonstrates the manufacturer’s confidence in product quality. The kit’s value proposition is compelling – purchasing these four components separately would cost significantly more than the complete kit price, making the CK225 an economical choice for quality-conscious buyers.

    Easy Installation with Standard Wiring

    The CK225 kit uses conventional doorbell wiring techniques, making it accessible for DIY enthusiasts with basic electrical knowledge while remaining familiar territory for professional electricians. Complete installation instructions are included, guiding you through every step from transformer mounting to button placement and chime connection.

    Bring your home’s entry system up to date with the CK225 Complete Wired Door Chime Kit – the smart choice for reliable, attractive, and fully functional doorbell service at both your front and back doors.

      But the beauty of this doorbell doesn’t stop there. Inside its base, hidden from sight, are powerful LEDs that serve a dual purpose. Not only do these LEDs provide illumination for the frosted glass, but they also create a mesmerizing amber glow that delicately warms the glass, creating a truly enchanting ambiance. The amber glow and the aged-iron finish form a harmonious blend that immerses you in the captivating world of industrial aesthetics.

      Whether installed in a modern loft, a rustic farmhouse, or a contemporary urban apartment, this wired chime effortlessly adds a touch of sophistication and character. Its industrial allure is unmatched, making it a standout piece that elevates the overall design of any space. So, if you’re looking to embrace the beauty of the industrial look, this wired doorbell with its aged-iron finish, frosted-glass panel, and enchanting LED illumination is the perfect choice.

      Reliable Signal Bell Kit Plays Chime Sound When Vehicle Rolls Over Hose Driveway Signal Bell Hose Kit Installed

      The 8DSBS1 is a drive-over driveway alarm, as seen at your favorite gas station or dry cleaner. This driveway signal bell kit is perfect for those who want to be alerted when a car enters their property.

      Stretch the included rubber hose across your driveway or entrance, and the bell will play a simple “ding” sound when a car rolls over it. Whether you’re protecting your home or business, this affordable and easy-to-use system is a great way to keep an eye on things.

      8dsbs1-driveway-signal-bell-kit-alerts-when-car-rolls-over-tube-600px
      8DSBS1 Driveway Signal Bell Kit Alerts When Car Rolls Over Tube Installed AN Driveway

      Our Driveway Signal Bells are products you would find at an old-fashioned gas station.

      Your Driveway Signal Bell’s patent date is May 12, 1959, as noted on the bell and the product box.

      Why this product is popular:

      The rubber hose is industrial grade, won’t wear out, and is low maintenance. There aren’t many moving parts, and you don’t have to worry about wireless device interference or running electrical wiring.

      How the product works:

      A rubber hose is stretched over an area you would like to monitor.  Driveways and drive-through areas are ideal.  When a car drives over the hose, pneumatic pressure causes a traditional signal bell to emit a “Ding-Dong” sound.

      How the product is installed:

      Plug your Driveway Signal Bell into a regular outlet, push the driveway hose onto the bottom of the bell, and push the anchor on the other end of the hose.

      The package includes (1) Driveway Signal Bell 805-3350516, (1) Heavy Hose Anchor, and (1) Driveway Signal Hose, 25 feet.

      Product Features:

      • The kit ships with 25 feet of rubber hose (works with up to 300 feet of signal hose).
      • Alerts you with a distinct “ding ding” sound.
      • It has an easy-to-install design – plug it into a standard 110-volt  outlet.
      • Each Driveway Signal Bell is made of the highest quality materials, professionally assembled, and tested to offer a reliable signal built to last.
      • No air compressor is needed – this product runs off the driveway hose’s compression.
      • The Hose Must Be Placed on Asphalt or Concrete Driveways ONLY; it cannot be used on gravel driveways!
