Sears, Roebuck et Cetera (catalog sales) carries a cordless doorbell.
You mount a battery powered transmitter at any convenient point near the door
and plug in bell units in 110V outlets in the rooms where you want them.
Simple, flexible and convenient.  Units are like $20 each.
The range is advertised as being something like 50 ft.
[I don't have one so I don't know how good they are.]

Of course it is not a hack.  But if you want maximum credit for
minimum work at a modest expense that is the way to go.

have fun
