Vital Ease — home modification and maintenance solutions

See the doorbell,feel the smoke alarm.

Bellman alerting products that turn the doorbell and the smoke alarm into a loud sound, a bright flash, or a shake under the pillow — for people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or sleep through ordinary alarms.

An alarm is only usefulif it reaches the person.

A standard doorbell or smoke alarm assumes somebody can hear it. For a person with hearing loss, or someone who sleeps heavily, that assumption fails at exactly the wrong moment: a carer left standing at the door, or a smoke alarm sounding in a hallway that nobody wakes to.

Bellman’s Visit range fixes that by adding a second way to be told. Transmitters listen for the doorbell or the smoke alarm, and receivers pass the alert on as a loud sound, a bright flash, or a vibrating bed shaker, in the room the person is actually in.

We supply and install the range below, and can combine the pieces to suit a particular home.

A wireless push button for the front door and a portable receiver that chimes loudly and flashes red, so a visitor is noticed from anywhere in the house.

Bellman SmokeAlarm Pack.

A complete fire alert for the bedroom: a photoelectric smoke alarm linked to a receiver that sounds, flashes, and shakes the bed, so a deep sleeper or a person with hearing loss is woken.

Bellman SmokeTransmitter.

An extra smoke alarm for a Visit system you already have, so another room — the kitchen, the lounge, a second bedroom — sends its alert to your receiver too.

Bellman VisitFlash Receiver.

A receiver that alerts with bright flashes and a coloured light for each event, so you can tell the doorbell from the smoke alarm at a glance.

Bellman VisitSafe Package.

A bedside alarm clock, a bed shaker, and a smoke alarm, sold together. The clock that wakes you in the morning is the same one that wakes you in a fire.

How we setit up.

  1. Tell us who it is for

    Who needs the alerts, where they sleep, and whether a doorbell, a smoke alarm, or both matter most. An audiologist’s or occupational therapist’s recommendation helps if there is one.

  2. Quote

    We recommend the combination of products for the home and quote it, in the format your funding body needs where the work is funded.

  3. Install and show you

    We fit the transmitters and receivers, pair them, test every alert with you, and show the household how to test and silence them.

Not sure what you need? We come out, measure up, and give you a written quote. It is free, with no obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Bellman product should I start with?
Start with whatever keeps the person safest at night. For most households that is the smoke alarm pack or the safe package, because a fire is the alert that cannot be missed. The doorbell pack is the next most common, and every piece works together, so more can be added later.
Do Bellman products work with each other?
Yes. They are all part of Bellman’s Visit system, so a doorbell button, smoke alarms, and receivers can be paired together. One receiver can show several different alerts, and extra receivers can be added in other rooms.
Can the NDIS or a Home Care Package pay for audio visual aids?
Often, yes. Alerting equipment for hearing loss is commonly funded under the NDIS, Support at Home or a Home Care Package, and DVA. Tell us which funding you hold and we will set out the quote in the format your plan manager or case manager needs.
Do these replace the smoke alarms my home already has?
No. Your home still needs the smoke alarms the regulations require. Bellman products add a way for the alarm to reach someone who cannot hear it — a flash, or a shaker under the pillow — on top of those alarms.
