Door Sound Effects Doors Various Play Track 551 sounds included $59

In the quiet narrative of spaces, doors play a pivotal role, their sounds marking transitions and moments of privacy. The click of a lock on a wooden door, the gentle sweep of a corridor door opening and closing, and the tactile feedback of an entrance handle offer a sense of security and belonging. The unmistakable sound of a key turning in a lock, the soft thud of a closet door, and the distinctive clinks of lock mechanisms punctuate the silence with intention. The smooth hiss of a hydraulic door contrasts with the creak of an old wooden apartment door, each adding its own chapter to the story of daily comings and goings, encapsulating the essence of threshold moments in the fabric of everyday life.

Door Sound Effects Doors Metal Play Track 456 sounds included $59

In the realm of echoes and reverberations, metal doors and their components orchestrate a symphony of industrial sounds. The action of using a door handle, whether it’s the lighter click or the heavier clunk, sets the stage for the ensuing creaks and clangs of metal doors swinging open or slamming shut. The eerie screech of metal on metal, the clattering of a metal grid being opened, and the definitive shut of a metal locker add layers of depth to this auditory landscape. Knocking on a metal door introduces a rhythm, punctuated by the intricate movements of metal mechanisms at work. Each sound, from the subtle to the resounding, tells a story of passage, security, and the cold touch of metal in motion.

Animal Sound Effects Cute but Deadly Chihuahua Play Track 14 sounds included, 10 mins total $8

Cute but Deadly Chihuahua is a Mini-Library consisting of barks, snarls, growls, yelps, whimpers, breaths and chuffs from my late dog Bellatrix. This library contains about 10 minutes worth of her vicious vocals and frustrated whimper yelps. This library really shines when you play with pitch and speed creating cute alien vocals or horrific monster growls. I’ve used these recordings in various feature films such as Piranha 3DD and The Devil Inside. She may be gone but her bark lives on!

Foley Sound Effects Wire Cars Play Track 95 sounds included $45

Experience the world of wire cars, capturing everything from the creation of these handcrafted African children’s toys to the sounds of them navigating different surfaces like dirt, asphalt, and tar. This collection features two types of wire cars: one with plastic wheels and another with metal wheels. The fabrication sounds were recorded in a studio, while the car sounds were captured outdoors, ensuring a rich stereo experience with both onboard and external perspectives.

Our recordings encompass a variety of actions including wire bending, handling, and cutting with different tools, as well as driving on varied surfaces at multiple speeds. You’ll hear manoeuvres such as pickups, drops, skids, crashes, impacts, and a range of passes at slow, medium, and high speeds.

Foley Sound Effects Nepali Traditional Broom Play Track 10 sounds included $8

During my stay in Nepal I visited a small village called Nala, and the people there all used hand made bamboo brooms to clean their homes. I thought it would be fun to do a bit of recording, as the sound of the broom is much rougher and thicker than most western brooms.
