I have two radio doorbells. I have two front doors - one is on the door access to the stairwell and the other is on my front door proper.

They don't have the same chime and are sounded by plug ins in different rooms.

Recently, about twice a week, I have been roused from sleep by door chimes.

It sounds like neither of the 2 chimes, but I check the doors anyway - no-one there.

In my groggy half asleep state I am not even sure which plug in unit is emitting the sound. It has happened occasionally in the evening too, but more often between 6am and 9am.

Could it possibly be those car doorlock key fobs being used by people parking nearby when they visit their allottments?
Any other suggestions as to cause are welcomed.
