In this video, I show you how to install a Ring Video Doorbell! I do a doorbell unboxing and show you everything that it comes with; the doorbell itself, the bracket to hold the doorbell, an installation tool kit, instruction manual(but this video will be your instructions!), and a charger for the doorbell. This is very easy and you can definitely do it yourself! I am not sponsored by Ring, this is just a video I made on my own to show you how to install one.

Buy a Ring Video Doorbell here - amzn.to/35jdQFN (affiliate link) Hey everyone, since some people have been asking... You only have to remove the Ring to charge it if you do not hook it up to an existing doorbell. I’m sorry I should have clarified that. So to be clear if you do not hook it up to existing wiring you need to remove and charge, otherwise the doorbell wires will charge it if you have it hooked up. Also, doorbell wires are low voltage, they can not shock you and all that happens when you touch them together is the doorbell goes off. If it makes you feel better you can shut off the power in your panel but is not necessary. Please consider subscribing to my channel: bit.ly/SubscribeToTheFixer Thanks for watching! 😃

If you have a digital doorbell you might have a DC transformer. Ring will not charge from a DC current, you will have to replace your transformer to an old school AC transformer.

@@Nick-bh1fy Yeah. Especially if it's a higher volt doorbell. They can range from 12 to 24 volts. Lower voltage won't do much harm but if it's a higher one it definitly will. The problem I had is teaching others to do it unsafe. And I don't mean just harm to the new doorbell. 24 is enough to spark a fire easily. If not at the point of contact, then somewhere in the wall.

A suggestion, when I ordered my ring doorbell, I went ahead and ordered a second battery. Now, when the battery runs down I just pop off the cover, install the fresh battery and pop the cover back on. Now my bell is always operating and I don't have down time while the other battery charges, which can take a while. Also, if a battery should fail, I'm not completely without my doorbell service while another battery is shipped. It's well worth the extra bucks for the battery and I highly recommend it. :) Good video, simple and correct. As for the height of mounting, it has a wide and tall range of view and people will look right at the bell when they go to press it, so you'll have no problem getting a face shot. If they're just coming to door or on porch, you'll still get enough view for an identification should you need it for later. (Cops, etc.) You can also adjust your field of motion sensitivity to get the best performance for your door. You didn't mention it but when you put in the first two screws to mount the plate, you went to opposite corners. You seem to understand the principle but to anyone else watching, mounting opposite corners like that ensures that you keep your level reference and helps keep even pressure on the plate so you don't bind it at all. Good demo.

I still have mine in the original box after 2 1/2 years. The programming step he skipped over in the video about chargine and programming it using the App is where I get flummoxed. I hired an electrician and he quit stating that my doorbell was an old 7 volt and needed to be a 12 volt to make it work. RIght now, the ring just sits there in its original box. But, my doorbell still works and so does my trigger finger. 🤯

@The.Toaster День назад

It's not bad. Battery life is around 6-9 months

@matt8863 2 года назад

The Ring Doorbell Pro requires a constant power supply with a voltage between 16V-24V and at least 30VA of amperage. Even if your voltage is reading 16V-24V you still need to check that you have 30VA of amperage from the transformer, as this is the recommended amperage requirements from the manufacturer of the Ring Pro Doorbell. It should be noted that the Ring Doorbell Voltage requirement for the Ring Doorbell 2 is lower because the Ring Doorbell 2 has a built in rechargeable battery, so it can accept a wider range of voltages because it charges the battery that powers the doorbell vs providing direct power to the doorbell. The voltage requirement for the Ring Doorbell 2 is between 8V-24V AC. We typically recommend using the Ring Doorbell Pro because it has more features but the Ring Doorbell 2 is a great option if you don’t have access to change out your existing lower power transformer.

@FitnessMcDonough Год назад

Thank you!

@landroverSV 6 месяцев назад

Question: If you don't mind, if one doesn't have the Ring Pro 2, you don't have to change the transformer, and even if hard wired, you still have to recharge the Ring Door bell 2 battery. Is that correct 🤔. Reason why I'm asking because the Ring company told me I have to change the transformer even with the Ring camera 2

@guidoscalise Год назад

Nice tutorial! One thing, though… I know (and you know) doorbells are generally safe, but your viewers may not be as experienced as you are, or could be working with dangerously/incorrectly installed circuits, or might misjudge their safety and end up getting shocked. Not explaining/observing basic electrical safety practices (like switching off the circuit breaker and never handling live wires of a system connected to mains) when explaining these topics could backfire one day for either you or your viewers. You create some great content, make it even greater by teaching your viewers how not to get shocked 😛

@frankg846 Год назад

that's a good point, i thought those wires are non electric, if they're as he stated why is it that it doesn't mater which side the wires goes, that means no positive or negative at all?!!!

@guidoscalise Год назад

@@frankg846 Nope. That's because the wires run alternating current, which means the polarity changes constantly, it's just like your mains electricity, except at a lower voltage (8 to 24V AC normally)

@frankg846 Год назад

@@guidoscalise so the wires are electric and you have to turn off the breakers first, correct?

@guidoscalise Год назад

@@frankg846 Yes, those wires are live. In fact, the Ring Doorbell maintains a trickle charge to its battery through them. So, it's not a bad idea to turn the breakers off. It takes you less than 30 seconds and it's a good habit to have anyway.

I am glad you cleared that up about charging first, then hooking up to an existing doorbell to eliminate the need to take it off to recharge. I didn't charge mine up BEFORE installing the first one, annd had to wait hours before I could use it. Also, if you do not have an existing WIRED doorbell, you can buy a transformer from most home tools shop and either hook it up to an existing 120 volt source or connect it to and outlet with a plug.

Great tutorial. I was worried the doorbell location was too low but I can see now that the wide angle lens actually has good coverage from the doorbell location. I'm glad to find someone that shares an install of this device. Ring actually does an incredible job of providing installation guidance and materials. As a person who works with both high and low voltage equipment I have to disagree with the idea that its fine to leave the power on. If you provide the ground to a low voltage circuit it can and will shock you. It will not kill you but you will feel it. If you short your circuit to a ground you can pull enough amps through the transformer you can burn it up and make another item to install. So, dont work with live power, and never suggest someone else to do so. Please

Thanks boss! I needed a ring video doorbell, and after watching your video I ordered through your link and it's already connected. I did want to add, they no longer offer the screw driver so you need to bring your own Phillips screw driver.

This instructional video is well done Fixer. You had a nice touch in that you went straight into this an original purchaser, and did the install from scratch (which is probably how 85-95% of folks go into purchases and installs like this) so that provided a great deal of realistic 'what-can-happen' effect to this video and that helps me when I'm actually doing something for the first time. (As an aside, for the 1st timer, they should find the circuit breaker that powers their doorbell and turn it off before they do anything like this, since electricity can be a real bugger if you don't turn the power off) / Fixer, much appreciated (as I'm going to order this thing now and be just like you within 2 days from now !) / Cheers !

Great video. Every time the doorbell went off my dog barked. I guess he recognized the sound. We have a Ring.

Thank a bunch for making this video, I've been wondering if I could do this myself or not, I wasn't sure, but now seeing you do it, I'm pretty sure, I can handle that. One question, is there a monthly fee you have to pay to have that working properly?

Used to use Ring until I learned of a brand called Eufy that does the same but for no monthly subscription fee and no police wanting access to your videos. Plus it comes with a doorbell included.

@PanChod-ct7ou 3 года назад

So you still need a battery even though you’re using the existing electrical wiring?

@TheFixerHomeRepair 3 года назад

You only have to remove the Ring to charge it if you do not hook it up to an existing doorbell. I’m sorry I should have clarified that. So to be clear if you do not hook it up to existing wiring you need to remove and charge, otherwise the doorbell wires will charge it if you have it hooked up.

Thank you for the great video. Clarifying Question: So if you do not have an existing doorbell, you can just mount it to the house (following all the instructions, except the wiring)? What’s the purpose of the diode?

@callmenene_ 2 года назад

I have the same question

@misfit91733 2 года назад

Correct you can mount the ring doorbell basically anywhere. I would recommend the solar charging base plate otherwise you will have to remove the ring doorbell to charge it. The diode is if you have a digital chime in your house. You stated that you do not have a doorbell so the diode you can disregard.

@crudolph277 3 года назад

Thank you for this video! This maybe a dumb question, I apologise, but if I'm wiring it to my house, will it charge the ring automatically? I noticed you mentioned taking it off to charge it... I thought wiring it up was supposed to keep it charged.
