We have a doorbell video intercom. When someone presses it, we see who they are from the kitchen. It has stopped working and I need to replace it.
So I found a nice one in Bunnings. The thing is, I don't know how to change it over? The current one obviously has a cord from the door, down the hallway to the unit. But how do you replace it? I've emailed the company, hoping that both ends are the same and I can just use the same cord. If not, what do I do?
I thought about tying string to one end of the cable and pulling it through, so that I have the string there ready to tie on the new one and pull it back. But I fear losing or breaking it midway…then I'm stuffed.
Should I leave it to a professional? Would that be an electrician? It's so hard to get trades to your house for small jobs.
I'd appreciate any help. I am the hand one in our home, and I'm not really that handy!!!
