Does anyone know where I could find a door chime/alert that will ring continuously (or at least once every 15 seconds or so) until the door it's attached to is closed? I looked at Home Depot, Lowes, and Radio Shack, but the only ones they carried rang a single time when the door was opened.

I'm looking for something as cheap as possible, this isn't for a security issue, but to remind myself and my room mates to close a particular door in the house that is constantly being left open.

I checked the googles, but no luck there.

Edit: shitty grammar and spelling

Thank you, that's what i'm looking for. I think that one may be way to loud though (120db) :(

I bought this from radio shack thinking it might work, but besides not functioning the way I needed it was entirely too loud (110dB according to the box.)


I was thinking I could build something myself that would handle this, but I don't know a lot about electrical engineering. If I wired this reed switch to this piezo buzzer and connected that to a 9 volt battery, would that work?
