Ring Alarm Home Security System on Amazon

[@brianputt984]

On the door sensors, the small piece can be turned 90 degrees. Rather than carving out the door, place the small piece on the frame, which will be at an angle, and put the larger portion of the sensor on the door. They should be aligned up and down but they don't have to be parallel with each other.

[@nereushixon]

well yea exactly. Also mounting that sensor that way, would prevent you from replacing the batteries in the future.

[@nickslater9499]

I audibly cried out when he cut that sensor into the door frame. Door might be there for a century. Sensor maybe 5 years or until the next homeowner.

[@720drew]

Alternate solution, instead of carving out, add on. Place a small block of wood on the door and mount it to that so that it’s “flush” instead of creating more work and headache like cutting out the trim, nonsense

[@davidbell7094]

@@720drew yes of course just use something suitable to use as a packer.

[@jp-ms5us]

So it's not just me then

[@frankxd9232]

After watching this video I decided to switch my old security system to Ring. This video was all I needed for the installtion. Thanks a lot.

[@odiepriscy]

I want to thank you! I had something happened that made me get this alarm system and I was worried who was going to help me set it up and with this video I did it alone and it was so quick and easy thank you!!

[@BananaBlack2077]

Just to comment … my grandson is 3 years old and love to watch your videos.. 😊😊😊😊

[@barteh]

Great video. My only comment would be on your door sensors, you could have swapped the sensors around so the bigger unit was installed on your door and the slim piece would have installed within your trim without the need to carve the chunk out, certainly looks to be enough room along the top of the door for that :)

[@saurabhkumarpatel1128]

I thought the same thing

[@curlingdan1]

I agree, I would of reversed the contacts.

[@shacky8532]

Correct, now there is no way to replace the batteries easily when they ran out of power...

[@OliverStonesUK]

I was thinking the same, easier and less damage to the door frame

[@BackDaws]

The sensor doesn't have to be flush, mine is slightly off and still works perfectly fine.

[@chungyuwong9741]

Does it will chime when door open even when unarmed

[@mattsaigon1]

NOTE: For people doing the same to their door frame. Put the small part of the sensor on the frame instead of the door. MAJOR ball ache when it comes to swapping the battery out. Sensor unit needs to be pushed to the right (into the door frame) to access the batteries. Great video overall.

[@dmc31405]

Open the door and change the battery... :)

[@ShinyRoxMonke]

@@dmc31405 the sensor comes off the mount the opposite way of the door

[@andyglade5522]

Looks great with the power wires hanging out and running down the wall

[@aaronnallin2526]

Just FYI, you should definitely NOT cut into your crown molding for the sensor on doors or windows lol. I had the same issue, but the sensor is designed to handle slight inclines and will still perfectly make contact with the other part of the sensor and still read properly. These sensors are made specifically to handle these sort of situations. ALSO for installation of keypad and base station I recommend you use 3M strips. 👍🏻

[@WheresTheAnyKey1]

i loled

[@aaronnallin2526]

@@WheresTheAnyKey1 that’s how I feel about this vid lol

[@BlvdTelevision]

He tried, gotta give him credit. I know he felt bad once he mounted a set on his window and realized they don’t need to be flush. Lol

[@SalehAnvari]

Just wanted to say thank you for the in-depth walkthrough video. Best walkthrough video I have ever watched for anything tbh.

[@kenmurray3569]

Just bought my Daughter one. Install will be much smoother after watching you vs. reading enclosed manual. Thank you .

[@patimrider]

Thank you for the video. This helped a lot with the install & hearing the alarm.

[@pppscooby]

Can you set the home setting to exclude some motion sensors but not everything else?

[@elaineds384]

Whats the best ( appealing to the eye) way to tied up the wires? Thank you!

[@DeltaTaiChi]

Ordered my system from Best Buy yesterday. Due to arrive on 5/18/2021. Watched your videos and feel much more confident doing the install. NICE JOB! THANK YOU. Subscribed! 👍

[@terencebramble3210]

Great presentation and very informative. Thank you for helping me decide on this product.

[@beezervids]

I don’t comment on many videos but I felt I should definitely give you a shout out. You did a fantastic job with this demonstration. I didn’t need to reference the instructions while watching this. It was clear, easy to follow, & understand. Thank you, nice work 👍

[@msnzbody3712]

Its what we “have” inside. Not what we GOT inside. Just a little grammer lesson. Great video

[@JeffLepard]

My bad. Thanks for watching!

[@deyeland]

Grammar lesson? Who the hell are you?

[@Ozzie4Para]

Nice install video but my OCD wouldn't allow me to leave all that wiring dangling all over the place. I would definitely fish the wire(s) through a wall for a much cleaner look.

[@PeterSchneemann]

Why do you need these door/window sensors? Why not just an extra motion sensor? One for the garage and one for the main floor. It’s much easier than having to put magnetic sensors on all 14 windows I have. Can someone explain that to me?

[@frankrodriguez8520]

Great video 👍🏻🙏🏻

[@silverandblackentertainment]

This guy cut his door molding 😂😂😂 just turn the sensor around or add something underneath the part the goes on the door!! 😂😂😂 👍🏽👍🏽

[@spawn302]

You don't even need to do that lol. If it's not flush, it still works fine. They can be offset and it will work fine haha. All mine are different depths and it works perfectly fine lol. Haven't had it miss any reads. The only benefit is aesthetics and maybe a 0.001 faster notification time of the open door

[@robertmacdougall9857]

Jeff. great detail in your video. Well presented. thanks. Am considering a Ring Home system. Wished you'd mention battery life, and how to change the sensor bartteries in place.

[@keepingitrealUK]

To make it easier to find where the screws have to go, you can make a template with some tape. Place the tape across the holes, and mark the holes, them remove the tape and stick the tape to the wall, and drill the holes on the template.

[@JeffLepard]

That's an excellent tip! Thanks for watching!

[@TheHHHR]

If I only want to use the motion sensor and two flood/freeze sensors do I really need to install the keypad or can I just control everything from my phone? Obviously the flood/freeze sensors will stay on all the time. so the only thing I would turn off and on would be the motion sensor. Thanks in advance for your help. Great videos, very easy to understand.😊

[@rnmendozaphotography]

Can the adapter be removed from being the keypad as a standalone unit or does it have to be plugged to the keypad all the time? Thank you!

[@kianjonesmould]

The old version did it so I pressume this can aswell x

[@RavinMode]

Amazing video . Let say you’re moving you have to take out the sensors how can you replace those sticky tape of the back of the sensors?

[@JeffLepard]

You can order those on amazon or Ring or get from local store or dollar store and cut it yourself.. Thanks for watching!

[@NathankGrose]

Great Video! I actually just got robbed while watching this. Maybe I'll purchase ring.

[@nilanperera9949]

Excellent video for a first timer like me.

[@JeffLepard]

Thanks for watching!

[@cj10cj10]

Hi Jeff, if you could please answer a question for me… I’ve been watching all these videos and I have the old eero pro three pack of routers (square and more flat not the E or 6 I don’t believe) that I love in my home if I purchase this ring pro alarm are those no longer valid? Do I have to use the ring as the brain or can I still put my routers before or after the ring router and still utilize them? Thank you so much.

[@ramonluvspattigarciaalways]

Great video!!!! But I have a outside garage and wondering if it would work with the garage not attach to the house? Also do u know does this system comes with cameras? Thx again for the great video. Stay bless

[@BlvdTelevision]

Cameras are sold separate and they do make outdoor sensors.

[@The336]

Thanks Jeff this was your awesomest video that i watched Keep Up The good Work Buddy

[@JeffLepard]

Appreciate the support! Thanks!

[@Resting_mitchface]

We have the exact same cutlery set. I will subscribe.

[@pieter-6385]

hello, does the keypad need power from wire all the time? thanks

[@Ambrosius13]

Gave you a thumbs up for a great how to. Question. Why didn’t you reverse the door sensor to that the larger piece is on the door instead of the door molding. That way you don’t have to cut out the molding.

[@JeffLepard]

I could have done that as well your correct. I will be doing another video showing that option as well.

[@williampolinchak]

Your videos are better than Ring's

[@souljacker553]

Instead of permanently notching out the door frame, I would just add a shim behind the part on the door to make them meet up. But the exposed cords on the base station and keypad are deal breakers for me.

[@JeffLepard]

Yeah I could of done it that was as well! The cords don't have to be there you can also just charge up the base station and the keypad and leave them unplugged running on battery power. Thanks for Watching and Supporting!

[@AsceticFocus]

How is the battery replaced on the motion sensor/door contacts - does one have to unstick them from the corner/doors?

[@mele2259]

Hello. Thanks for the great video. Finally getting rid of ADT. I have a question please . I'm gonna have three different pads in three different floors. I need the pad upstairs not to chirp at all when any sensor is opened or closed. And I need the one in the middle and Basement floors to only chirp when certain sensors are opened and closed. Are these options customizable? Thanks so much.

[@chriso847]

Does this Ring 8 piece gen2 REQUIRE monitoring or any other type of monthly or annual fee?

[@charliepham6889]

Thankyou Jeff I have a brand new unit I"LL install your video that help me Thanks again Jeff

[@guilyqwerty6096]

Hello , does the all the equiments for ring first generation is compatible for ring second generation ?

[@bgq6993]

Does the base always have to be connected on a wire ?

[@TheCOOLKID-d8n]

[@theuncreatedlight4717]

Does the door chime sounds come only through the Base station? Or does the alarm pad also make a sound when someone opens a door?

[@ilirmorina6310]

I have a question regarding the keypad. Can I add the 2d keypad in one system? I use the garage poort to get inside. But also sometimes the main door. Thanks in advance?

[@jroalan]

Have you added other z-wave devices? Plugs and in wall switches? I am considering switching to Ring but want to know if the energy monitoring devices will work or if I need a second hub.

[@isoplayers]

Very very helpful video. Thank you sir!

[@wayne2411]

You should have attached the sensor to the instead of noting the molding. Why would you modify your trim like that!?!

[@anandvenkatesan4740]

Is it worth buying Ring Alarm Pro? Costco has a very good Black Friday 2021 offer for Ring Alarm Gen2.

[@camman61]

very informative . I have a few questions. batteris replacements and how to hide the power wires . do you have another VD ?

[@craigmiller2935]

Hi Jeff, great video & really well explained thank you mate 👍 One question: if im going to bed, is it possible to arm just the downstairs & not the upstairs?

[@jlo5470]

Are you able to custom id each window/door sensors on the app and will it show which sensor went off? Ex downstairs window #1....basement window. Ects.

[@Term626]

Are the sensors rechargeable? Or you have to purchase a new one every time battery runs out? Also, does the keypad need to always be plugged in into an outlet?

[@DukeJon1969]

Very straightforward, will help a lot when I set mine up. Thanks!

[@fev9034]

Great video Jeff. Wouldn't it have been easier to put something under the magnetic contact on the door, so you didn't have to chisel the door frame ?

[@roamer77]

So i assume with the window sensor install, you won't be able to put your screen back on? I have the same windows you do!

[@JeffLepard]

You can easily remove the sensors as needed if you have to. Thanks so much for watching!

[@noy6184]

thanks for sharing, how do you like it so far

[@vee8599]

The pin pads are they rechargeable or do you need an outlet or hardwire ?

hi. thank you for this video. not i do not have to pay for a install. just 1 question when setting up the main base unit, when it asks for if you want the monitoring service, (which we do want) do i need to call the monitoring service 1st to get the account or do that after all the setup is done?

[@richarddorsch8685]

Great explanation...thank you.

[@sofianelalla3259]

Hi i have question sir Can i use the ring security system with 220 and 240 volts? I am wondering if the ring work oversea in Europe Thank u for your help

[@rqn1998]

Great video and subscribed. My only concern was the cable hanging from the keypad and with the motion sensor it requires battery change with those stickers on each edge? Are those stickers replacable with battery change? Thanks for this review though it was helpful to me and decision to purchase. I'm like you with that door chunk thing only to find an easier way later on haha... cheers.

[@Youssef.innovations11]

Are you able to replace the batteries in your door sensor without removing the complete unit?

[@cleydencleyden2284]

Hi Mate, good job by the way 👏 quick question, what're u doing if the thieves are cutting off the electricity? 🤔 I'm asking because I have a professional sistem at home installing by someone dealing with this kind of stuff.

[@scotth6814]

I would plug the base station into a UPS.

[@Sonny0276]

[@ParanormalWhispers]

Hi there thank you for a great video. I appreciate it. I have a question. Does this alarm kit work with your iPhone or do I have to have an android?? I do use iPhone, 15 Pro Max with the latest iOS program? thank you in advance for taking a time to read my question and answering it .👍🏾

[@Born2BeWildOfficial]

Yes you can use ring with any iOS device

[@gecorrea300]

how loud is the alarm? decibles?

[@JeffLepard]

It is 104dB. Thanks for watching!

[@belg715]

Can you still use this system without WiFi? If I don’t have internet can I use my phone with Bluetooth?

[@W0rstplayerNA]

In theory the "get out delay" for the front door being on allows potential robbers 30 seconds for them to grab whatever they can before the alarm even sounds? Wouldn't it be more beneficial to just arm/disarm via the app after you exit the home and before you enter the home so alarm goes off immediately if someone breaks in?

[@scotth6814]

Personally I would find it annoying to have to pull out my phone, turn it on, put in the code to allow access to phone, open the app, put in the Ring code, close the app, turn off the phone, and put it back in my pocket again. Much easier to set the alarm for 15 seconds, and punch the code in upon opening the door. But maybe that's just me.

[@Babyk33]

I have the same exact alarm and the second generation and it was pretty good

[@neilufe]

For the door you can just flip it around and use the smaller part on the trim and it doesn’t have to sit flush the magnets are pretty strong

[@Cats-Journey]

Thank you for this video 😊

[@JeffLepard]

My pleasure 😊 Thanks for watching!

[@big-jungleman]

Excellent video Jeff, I'd be interested to know/see how the siren sounds on your mobile device when you're actually away from the house, as opposed to standing there at the door. I bought the first gen kit ages ago and I still haven't gotten round to fitting any of the devices, I did a little trial of the indoor cam, set it up and the siren was LOUD, so loud that I can't tell whether the siren is coming from the indoor cam itself or my mobile fon, or both.

On double doors, Contact sensors go one part on each door, right?

[@Porsche993-j6k]

Buy two door sensors and install the same way he did

[@LK2000Y]

@@Porsche993-j6k But if you open one door, there won’t be more contact with the other so it’s the same. 2 sensors look very weird for me.

[@eddiekytia]

Better tip for the screws is a piece of wax paper put it on back mark the 2 wholes because you can sea through the paper then use the paper as a template on the wall

[@rommerig6483]

Is it possible to have this ring alarm system kit home without a subscription?

[@toemblem]

19:26 you could just put the big piece on the door. By recessing it, you will need to remove the adhesive in order to change the batteries. Plus, you have hacked up your woodwork.
