buzzers
Sound the alarm
Buzzers are devices that make a buzzing sound, typically used as signals or alarms: The buzzers went off when the factory shift ended.
In sports, a buzzer marks the end of a period—hence buzzer-beater for a last-second score.
Informally, a buzzer can be a doorbell or intercom button: Ring the buzzer and I'll let you in.
