In this video we teach you how to install the Simplisafe Video Doorbell Pro. The Simplisafe video doorbell is a wifi video doorbell that allows you to remotely view streaming or recorded footage from your video doorbell on your phone. It also allows 2 way communication so that you can talk to whomever is at your front door.
The Simplisafe Doorbell has 1080HD footage and has both day and night vision. It requires 8-24V AC for power which most existing doorbell transformers will provide.
To Install The Simplisafe Doorbell
1. Turn off the power to your existing doorbell at the circuit breaker.
2. Confirm the power is off to your existing doorbell wiring and remove the existing doorbell.
3. With the existing doorbell remove you can install the new simplisafe doorbell. Route the wires through the center plate and attach the centerplate using the provided screws to the wall.
4. Insert the doorbell wires into the provided terminals make sure not to interfere with the contacts above the left terminal.
5. Install the simplisafe video doorbell on to the simplisafe base plate by sliding it into place on top of baseplate.
6. Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker. It may take 2-3 minutes for the device to power up once the power has been restored. When the device is ready for set up the lights at the button will come on and the device will speak to you saying that it's in setup mode.
7. Download the Simplisafe app, set up an account and follow the instructions to set up the Simplisafe Doorbell on the Simplisafe App.
* Note if you are having issues getting your Simplisafe Doorbell connected make sure that you are connecting it to your 2.4GHZ wifi network to get it set up. Sometimes this means you will need to temporarily disable your 5GHZ network to get your Simplisafe doorbell set up.

This was very useful. I had questions on the included directions, specifically with the base plate and the tapered thickness. The Simplisafe person di not knowwhat I was talking about and the instrucyions don't even acknowledge the two mounting positions. The "CLEARANCE" tab was not really explained either. Notice the instructions tell you to put the wires to the LEFT of the screws, but the illustration shoes them on the RIGHT. You have done a great job in providing explanations the the company did not even think to mention. Great job.

One area I wish you had covered was the notification itself. What was the time delay from button push to notification on your phone, and what does that notification look like? I have an old nest hello now and it’s pretty instant but ALSO included a preview of the video. To my knowledge, based on the other simplisafe cameras I have, the notifications are instant but DO NOT include a video preview. Thereby making you open the app to see who’s there, and the app takes a solid 5-15 seconds to load the video feed.

Your video is why I was able to install the doorbell. The "instructions" that came with the doorbell were abysmal! One suggestion - This gave me difficulty: When inserting the wires under the screws, I thought I had to fit the wire BETWEEN the screw and the plate. I finally saw in your video that you slipped the wires BEHIND the rectangular piece, but I had to specifically look to see if that was what you were doing. It would clarify if you stated that the wires go BEHIND the rectangular plate, not around the screw on top of the plate (because they don't fit there!). But thanks for posting this helpful video!

mine does not work. when I turn the power back on the doorbell does chime- the ring on the door bell turns a yellow green for about seconds and then goes out. pressing the button does not chime the door bell. following the set up instructions says to charge for 20 mins. same issue as right from the get go. Forty mins so far on hold with customer support listening to that awful elevator music. was pretty happy with Simply safe - not so much now.

I bought a new home that has a PrimeChime Plus 2 Electronic Doorbell. I recently purchased a SimpliSafe video doorbell. SimpliSave sent me a work around cable for a digital chime with instructions on installation, but it DOES NOT work! I think I either trash the video door bell or trash the Nicor PrimeChime Plus 2 Electronic Doorbell because neither Nicor or SimpleSafe know how to integrate an electronic doorbell with the video door bell. Sure doesn't seem like Rocket Science to me!?!?!

Correct, it low voltage DC. Try not to let the wires touch each other or the same metal parts while installing though, it can damage the power supply if you are working “live” and they short together. Oh, don’t put them in your mouth either lol, like a 9 volt battery (but even worse) it would not be a pleasant experience.

Agreed SimpliSafe system is easy to install. It's a good monitoring system but for the poor quality of their video doorbell camera from internet connectivity standpoint. I did purchase it along with the Video Doorbell Camera but the camera goes offline (no live stream) with a message 'Disconnected from the internet' every 2-3 minutes. SimpliSafe attributed it to my poor Wi-Fi network when in fact I have 5 GHz-600 MBS speed bandwidth along with six Google Nest Wi-Fi routers. When I complained to SimpliSafe, they asked me to the split the Wi-Fi network into 2.4ghz and 5ghz since SimpliSafe doorbell camera works only with 2.4ghz bandwith (this they do NOT say anywhere). I did the split and connected the SimpliSafe doorbell camera to 2.4ghz Wi-Fi network but in vain. The camera went offline as ever before. They sent me a replacement camera which too had the same 'going offline every 2-3 minutes' issue. I repeatedly called SimpliSafe and asked for a good solution. They had the cheek to say I should move my internet router (which is about 10 feet away from the doorbell camera) closer to the doorbell camera. That was the last straw that broke the camel's back and I canceled my subscription service. While the rest of the SimpliSafe system works, the doorbell camera does not since it's outdated. Today's doorbell cameras support dual bandwith (2.4ghz and 5ghz) and SimpliSafe lags behind, thanks to their outdated technology. I am currently using the SimpliSafe doorbell camera without the video recording feature from the web interface (smart app disabled due to my monthly subscription cancelation) though the the camera goes offline every 2-3 minutes but then I am not paying $27.99 for the poor quality of the camera. I can't return the equipment since I am past the product return window.
