I live in a apartment complex with multiple buildings, each with 10 units. My doorbell seems to be ringing on it's own. I don't believe it's being caused by pranksters. I just moved to the state of Tennessee so I know it's not anyone that I know. There is no rhyme or reason to the occurrences of the door bell ringing. The only thing that does seem consistent is that most of the time when it rings, there is some one ringing the doorbell at the apartment in an adjacent building. Is this possible? Could some kind of wires be crossed resulting in my door bell being activated when the door bell rings at an apartment in a different building, about 30 feet from my door step?
:rolleyes:
