Can you install this bell on a metal door?

Yes, I installed mine on a steel door at my shop. You will need to find where you want to locate the bell, mark bracket holes and drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the diameter of the screw you use. A small pan head sheet metal screw is all you need. A self drilling screw would work too, but I would still drill first. Hope this helps!

I can't see why not so long as the door has a frame and door jam to mount the clasp.

I'm sure you can, hopefully the adhesive will bond to the metal. you should try it.

I love mine. You can screw it into a metal door if you tap into it first. I tried more than one and this was the number one best of any of them I tried!

I'm not sure what you mean, If you mount your doorbell on the door, it should work. And the ringer are very loud, you can't miss it. I'd give a try, it's only 10 dollars.

That is correct. It works with a magnet when you open the door it pulls a string that when releases hits the bell.

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.

Pick your spot you're going to install it. There are two holes already there for you at the bottom of the bell holder, pick one and put a screw through it. Simple.

from what I can tell, yes, you can. the part that you insert is just a little ( ) shape protruding from the flat metal bar. you just stick that in the same hole that the door "latch bolt" goes into. so, If the hole in the wall the door latch bolt goes into is at least like an inch tall and an inch wide, it should work fine.

Depends on the type of bell. I was able to put a horn on my grandson's, didn't try a bell.

I had no trouble installing the door bell. If you have two wires from your old door bell that is all you need. You may or may not need the diode. Try installing the bell with out it. If it does not work then you need the diode. I have install two door bells at different houses and I needed the diode on both bells. There are installation instructions on line with illustrations if you need more detail.Everyone that rings the bell thinks the music is great. It is a great conservation piece.

I don't think it matters whether the door is metal or wood. If you look at the end that goes under the door, there needs to be enough clearance for the alarm to fit under the door. It's not absolutely flat. Seems to me that's the only issue.

Presuming your metal door is foam core like the one I did, it can certainly be installed but cutting the metal requires a pretty heavy duty Sawzall or similar. I made a pretty big mess of the cut and the directions lead you to put the template upside down. The good news is that the large width of the frame covered the irregular and jagged edges of the cut.

Doubt it'd break, but yo might need to add a longer "rope" or maybe just extend the existing one. The metal and working parts should be fine no matter what size door as long as the top section fits the thickness of the door snuggly

No, as long as you follow their specific instructions for metal door installation, which I did.

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.
