How To Replace a Wired Doorbell with Ring Video Doorbell | DiY Install

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! 😃

Can this be hooked up to a android cell phone would love to know thank you very much for this video

[@718EngrCo]

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.

[@selee_nium]

Okay thanks for clarifying! I’m terrible with wiring and easy things like this and I wouldn’t have gotten the courage to instal this on my own without you saying I wasn’t going to die if I didn’t know where to go turn off the power 😂 Thank you!!!

I had one of these about a year ago someone stripped the nut and I never could get the camera off again to charge it and use it. I now just got another one in today. I missed it and I am waiting on my ring video door bell to charge. How long does it take do you remember ? Your tip about the existing wiring. Made me wish I had existing wiring then I wouldn't have to take it down at all right ?

[@HalkerVeil]

@@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.

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. 🤯

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.

[@jaycollins9147]

After you charge it and wire it in, do you ever have to charge it back up again ?

[@MtnBadger]

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.

[@jimmygrant424]

I cannot believe nobody and I mean nobody commented to say thank you for that is a fantastic idea!!!!!!!! You brought up very good reasons for ordering an extra battery so you the best comment award you have earned!!!!

[@CryssLovesMusic]

Your video was very helpful, thank you! Installed mine yesterday.

[@matt8863]

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]

Thank you!

[@landroverSV]

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

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]

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]

@@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]

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

[@guidoscalise]

@@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.

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

(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 !

I did this same exact install and the inside doorbell still doesn’t work. Any suggestions?

[@Peter8831]

Yep, that's me 😂

[@wicker478]

As I am one of them.lol

[@sylvia912]

Thank you sooooo much. I've always wanted to install. Now I can. Again THANKS!!

[@Bambidoodlerz]

Thank you sooooo much for this video very easy installation

[@jguille10]

The chime works with ring or this ring bell only has a notification on the phone?

[@MarkThomas-yy4dk]

Good video, thanks! Your handling of live wires was making me cringe a bit though. I got shocked the other day installing a light switch, I flipped the breaker the wrong way after some testing. Easy to avoid!

[@ginjaninja985]

It’s only 24v give you a little flick that’s all

[@slimbdareal]

Good advice about the charging beforehand. Thank you.

You totally deserve your percentage of the sale. I'm gonna save this video and use your link when I buy. Should be before Saturday. Great tutorial. 👍

1:33 can u explain how u connect the door bell to ur phone?

[@emsmith2519]

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?

[@imChanthip]

Its 3 bucks a month, look on their website to be sure

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_]

I have the same question

[@misfit91733]

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.

Looks as easy as making a peanut butter samich, I think I'll give it a shot. Great video. Thanks

[@davemonk]

Great video. Easy to understand. Short and to the point. Wish more were like this. Is this unit the original or 2? Thanks!!

[@courtneystage3969]

I've always wondered how these worked....thanks...also, where'd u get that drill? It's pretty and has a light so obviously I need one immediately

[@TheFixerHomeRepair]

Hey Courtney! Happy to show you! Haha I got this drill from home depot but they also sell them on Amazon. Here is one that has the fancy lights on it but doesn't come with a battery... amzn.to/2NgBREV . If you already have Ryobi stuff though, the batteries will fit this. Thanks for checking out the video!!
