Tools needed

• Phillips head screwdriver

Step 1: Turn off power at the breaker

Step 2: Check in-home chime and transformer compatibility

Verify compatibility before installation to avoid damaging your devices.

• Check if you have a compatible in-home chime.
• Check if you have a compatible transformer.

Step 3: Install the Pro Power Kit

If you are hardwiring to or bypassing an in-home chime, follow our guide for installing your Pro Power Kit. You do not need to follow these steps if you are using a Plug-In Adapter.

Step 4: Uninstall your existing doorbell button

Remove your doorbell from the wall and disconnect the wires. Make sure they don’t fall back inside your wall so you can access them later.

Step 5: Remove the faceplate from the doorbell

Grasp the edges of the faceplate and push gently against the front of the doorbell to remove.

Note: The faceplate should pop off easily, do not use excessive force.

Step 6: Prepare the mounting location

If your device will use a Wedge or Corner Kit, install the kit before mounting the doorbell.

Installing on a wood surface

Drill and wall anchors are not needed.

Installing on a masonry surface

1. Using the marked screw hole locations, drill pilot holes using a 1/4“ (6 mm) drill bit.
2. Insert the included wall anchors.

Step 7: Connect the doorbell wires or Plug-In Adapter

Hardwiring to an in-home chime or transformer

On the back of your Ring doorbell, connect both of the wires to the terminal screws. Only connect one wire per screw. Tighten the terminal screws to secure the wires.

• If your doorbell wires are too short to reach your new Ring doorbell, you can attach the included wire extenders using the included wire nuts.

Connecting to a Plug-In Adapter

If you are using a Plug-In Adapter, select No chime or None in the Chime Type settings of your Ring app. Learn more about configuring chime settings.

1. Connect the adapter cables to the two terminal screws on the back of your Ring doorbell, then screw them into place.

2. Plug the adapter into a power outlet.

3. Secure with cable clips.

Step 8: Mount the doorbell

Mounting directly to a wall

Feed any excess wiring and wire nuts back into the wall, then secure your Ring doorbell to the wall using the included mounting screws from bag A.

Mounting to a Corner or Wedge Kit

Feed any excess wiring and wire nuts back into the wall, then secure your Ring doorbell to the mount using the short screws from bag C.

Step 9: Secure your Ring doorbell

Re-attach the faceplate, then use the included screwdriver to insert and tighten one of the 3/16” security screws. CAUTION! If you use the wrong screws to secure the faceplate, you could damage the device during installation, create a fire hazard, and be seriously injured.

Step 10: Restore power at the breaker

Turn power back on at the circuit breaker. It might take a moment for your Ring doorbell to power on. It will light up when it’s ready. Learn more about doorbell light patterns.

Step 11: Set up your doorbell in the Ring app

Once your doorbell is installed, follow the in-app instructions to set up your device.

Step 12: Adjust in-home chime settings

Important note: To avoid damaging your devices, do not press the doorbell button until you have changed the In-home Chime Settings in the Ring app, even if you are not using an in-home chime. In the In-Home Chime Settings of your Ring app, change the Chime Type:

• Mechanical

  : Select this option for simple doorbells that have a “ding-dong” sound.
• Digital

  : Select this option for electronic doorbells that play sounds from a speaker, such as a melody.
• No chime

  or

  None

  : Select this option if you are using a Plug-In Adapter, have bypassed a chime, or are hardwiring directly to a transformer.

If your Ring doorbell is connected to an in-home chime, try ringing your doorbell. If it does not sound right, check our guide for configuring and troubleshooting your in-home chime.
