Doorbell Wired
Included hardware.
Bag Hardware
Find your doorbell chime.
Your Doorbell Wired is designed to replace an existing doorbell button and
gets its power from the doorbell system.
Ring your existing doorbell and listen for the chime. If it rings, we know
your existing doorbell system is working.
Follow the sound to find your chime and make a mental note of the location.
We’ll return to your chime soon.
Don’t have an existing doorbell? You can power your Doorbell Wired directly
using our Plug-in Adapter. Visit
ring.com/accessories to learn more.
Turn off power at the breaker.
This is essential to keeping you and your new Ring Doorbell safe.
If you’re not sure which breaker controls your doorbell chime, turn off the
master breaker for your home, or contact an electrician.
CAUTION!
You’ll be working with electrical wires during the install process. If you are
uncomfortable or inexperienced with doing so, consult with a licensed
electrician.
Grab the included Jumper Cable.
The Jumper Cable bypasses and disables your existing doorbell chime, and must
be installed before you install your Ring Doorbell.
Your Doorbell Wired is compatible with doorbell systems supplying 10–24 volts
AC, at 50 or 60Hz, 40VA max. The AC connector is the class 2 energy source.
Remove the cover from your doorbell chime.
After you’ve located your doorbell chime and turned off the power at the breaker, remove the cover from your chime and set it aside for now.
Loosen the “Front” and “Trans” terminal screws.
Make sure to keep the existing doorbell wires in place.
Connect the Jumper Cable.
Connect one end of the Jumper Cable to the “Front” terminal, and the other to
the “Trans” terminal. It doesn’t matter which wire you connect to which
terminal.
Then re-tighten the terminal screws.
Uninstall your existing doorbell button.
Remove your doorbell from the wall.
Disconnect the wires. Make sure they don’t fall back inside your wall so you
can access them later.
Remove the faceplate.
Grasp the bottom of the faceplate and pull to remove.
Mark the screw holes.
Use your Ring Doorbell as a template, mark the location of the two mounting holes on your wall.
Install the anchors. (optional)
On stucco, brick, or concrete, use a ¼” masonry bit to drill holes in your
wall, then insert the included wall anchors.
(If you’re installing on wood or siding, you can skip this step.)
Connect the doorbell wires.
Loop one doorbell wire around each of the screw terminals on the rear of your Ring Doorbell then tighten the terminals to secure.
Screw-in your Ring Doorbell.
Mount your Ring Doorbell with the two included mounting screws.
Be sure to feed any excess wiring back into the wall first.
DO NOT USE any screw other than the included mounting screws when securing your Ring Doorbell.
Restore power at the breaker.
It may take a moment for your Ring Doorbell to power on. You’ll know it’s ready once it lights up and speaks to you.
Download the Ring App.
The Ring app walks you through setting up and managing your Ring Doorbell.
Search for “Ring” in one of the app stores below, or visit
ring.com/app
Set up your Ring Doorbell.
In the Ring app, select Set Up a Device and follow the in-app instructions.
Secure your Ring Doorbell.
Re-attach the faceplate, then use the included screwdriver to drive the small
security screw into the bottom of your Ring Doorbell.
CAUTION!
If you use the wrong screws to secure the Video Doorbell, you could damage the
battery during installation, create a fire hazard, and be seriously injured.
