3 Installation
Remove Your Existing Doorbell (optional)
If you’re replacing a wired doorbell, first turn off the power at the breaker.
Then remove your doorbell from the wall, and disconnect the wires.
If you notice a diode when you remove your wired doorbell, take note of this, as it means you will need to use the included diode.
4 Installation
Install the Mounting Bracket
Take everything that came in the box, along with a power drill if you’re installing on stucco, brick, or concrete, to the spot where you’ll be installing your Ring Doorbell.
Snap the provided level onto the mounting bracket and use it to help position the bracket.
Then remove the orange tape, and use the mounting bracket as a template to mark the four corner holes.
On stucco, brick, or concrete install the anchors using the provided drill bit and a power drill before installing the mounting bracket.
On wood or siding, you can skip this step, and screw the bracket directly into your wall.
Use the Phillips head side of the Ring screwdriver for screwing in your mounting bracket.
Drive the screws into the anchors, or directly into your wall until they are flush with the mounting bracket, and the bracket is flat against your wall.
If your wall is at all uneven, be careful not to screw the bracket in so tightly that it bends.
Connect the Wires (optional)
Connect the wires coming out of your wall to the screws on the bracket.
It doesn’t matter which wire connects to which screw.
If you’re replacing an existing doorbell, the wiring must be connected to a transformer with a voltage of 8VAC – 24VAC and an internal doorbell or resistor.
DC transformers and (therefore) most intercoms are not supported.
How and When to Use the Diode
If your doorbell is digital (e.g. plays a melody), attach the included diode to the two screws on your bracket.
If your doorbell is mechanical (e.g. goes “ding-dong’”),DO NOT USE THE DIODE.
If you have a digital doorbell, connecting the diode the wrong way won’t do any harm. If your existing doorbell doesn’t ring, just reverse the diode.
