How To Install Ring Video Doorbell 2 Youtube

Let us see how to install the Ring video doorbell 2 if you wish to connect it to existing doorbell wiring.

This installation is necessary if you want the internal bell to ring whenever somebody pushes the button on the front of the Ring video doorbell 2.

You have to charge the battery fully before installation.

Plug the charging cable into the battery. When you are charging the battery, both the green and red lights will illuminate.

If you find only the green light, it means that the battery is completely charged.

Now, slide your battery back into its compartment until you hear a click. The clicking sound indicates that the battery is secure.

Once you insert the battery, it will take around half-a-minute for your Ring doorbell 2 to power up.

Before you install your doorbell, complete its in-app setup. You have to do this indoors close to your Wi-Fi router.
First shut the power off to the doorbell wiring from the breaker box.
Remove the already-existing doorbell from the wall. Disconnect all the wires.
Mark the installation location of your Ring doorbell on the wall.
If you need to install the Ring doorbell on brick, concrete, or stucco, perform the following:
Make use of the drill bit (provided to you) to drill holes into the wall.
Now, insert the anchors into the holes

In case you wish to install the Ring doorbell on wood, perform the following:

The anchors are not necessary.
Screw your doorbell directly into the wall.
The usual installation height for your Ring doorbell is 4 feet off the ground.
If you are installing the doorbell to wires that are higher than 4 feet, utilize the wedge mount. The wedge mount is necessary to angle the doorbell for enhancing your view.
In case you are connecting the doorbell to existing wires, you have to use a transformer. The transformer must have a voltage of 8-24 Volt AC.
You will need a resistor in case you are wiring directly to the transformer.
Remember that most of the intercoms and DC transformers are not supportive.
If the existing doorbell wires are very short and you cannot wire the Ring doorbell, utilize the wire extensions and nuts.

Use these wire extensions and wire nuts to connect them together.
Once you finish connecting the wires, tighten the screws at the back of the doorbell. This action is necessary to ensure a good connection.
If you need help while installing the Ring video doorbell, refer to the printed manual provided with it.
Feed all the wires and wire nuts into the wall.
Secure the doorbell using the screws provided.
Install the face-plate by clicking it into place.
Use the star-shaped end of a screwdriver to secure the face-plate with one of the security screws.
At the breaker, turn on the power.
Now, the front light on your Ring video doorbell will illuminate.
Your Ring video doorbell 2 is now ready to use.
