Wireless Call Button Costs Explained

Wireless call buttons are a cost effective solution to a problem and the cost depends on the solution that is required.

Individual Buttons and Receivers

Basic call buttons are available for about £15-40 pounds each depending on the size and make, and receivers display alerts from wireless call buttons for about 30-80 pounds each.

System Size and Total Spend

Add more buttons and the total spend will rise. Typically, a small venue would have around 4-8 buttons and for a setup like this, you would look at a wireless call button kit. Prices for a full wireless call button system for wireless call buttons start from around £150 + for a good quality wireless call button system using top class wireless call buttons and wireless call button receivers with displays.

Single-Channel Versus Multi-Zone

Most single channel wireless call buttons will alert one receiver no matter which button is pressed. Multi-zone wireless call buttons will alert different staff areas depending on which button has been pressed. They cost more and typically will cost between £50 to £100 for additional receivers and for the system to be programmed.

Ongoing Costs

Batteries are the main component for ongoing costs. Generally buttons are powered by AAs or AAAs and last around 6 – 12 months depending on usage. Typical cost for these is around £2 – £5 per battery.

Optional Extras

Optional extras such as waterproof cases to use outdoors or in the kitchen for a few pounds extra per button, table stands, wrist pagers for the staff and button covers of all kinds of colours and designs (branded button covers) would also cost a bit extra.

This budget could get you a good working wireless call button system for a small pub, café or care home and should cost between £150 and £350.
