Best Answer

A chime doorbell uses a specialized sort of electromagnet called a solenoid. A solenoid is just an electromagnet where the coiled wire surrounds a metal piston. The piston contains magnetically conductive metal, so it can be moved backward or forward by the electromagnetic field.

That's what the front door is for; for visitors. No 'decision' for permission is required. Your door-bell and your knocker is the invitation; even for strangers. Even if there's neither a door-bell or a knocker, anyone can come to your front door and knock. Even the police can come to your door, and have to knock or ring the bell to present you with a search warrant; or with a summons.
