Thank you so much for this. The instructions that came with it and the negative amazon reviews didnt really help me figure this out. You made it perfectly easy for me. 15yrs on youtube and this is probably only the 5th time I ever felt a need to comment. Thanks.

Thank you so much for this video, I found your method of doing a pre-test with the different number of wedges very helpful in determining how many wedges I should use. Your video is much better than the Ring produced video on wedge installation.

When it works its great but mine will stop sending any alerts randomly. dozens of calls to customer service. Cant seem to fix it. Ring is sending me another no charge and advise a wedge kit which they already sent.. We shall see. but at this point I wish I bought another brand.

Hello. The wedge kit plates that you are using have the four holes spaced more closely together than the plates that were shipped to me. So frustrating. Any suggestions? The two top holes on the MOUNTING PLATE that came with my Ring Doorbell second generation are 3 and 6/16ths inches (3.375") above the bottom two holes. However, the two top holes on the WEDGE KIT PLATES I bought are 4 and 3/16ths inches (4.1875") above the bottom two holes. So, the holes do not align. The wedge kit plates you are holding in your hand in this video are correct. They look slightly different than the ones shipped to me. Can you please help here?
@HowSkills
Жыл бұрын
I would return those to the seller and have them give you the right ones. If a return isn’t possible, you might have to drill two new holes in the Wedge Kit plate that match with the holes in the original mounting plate. That’s not ideal, but it sounds like you have enough room to work with. If you do have to drill new holes, do so carefully so as not to crack the plastic. You might start out by drilling a very small pilot hole first, and then finishing with the proper size bit.

@HowSkills

If you don't have an electrical supply to your doorbell, then it can run on the internal battery. But with this model of the Ring doorbell, it's a little bit of a pain to remove the battery to recharge it, as you have to remove the whole doorbell first. They do make other models that have more easily removable batteries though, which is much more convenient. Having an electrical supply line is great if you have one, but not absolutely necessary.
