How long does a Ring Doorbell Installation take? | Techmeisters Ltd

Ring doorbell installations can be fairly simple if there is already a doorbell powered by a transformer connected to the mains, or you simply want a battery Ring doorbell installed. A wired Ring doorbell installation starts getting more complex when the current doorbell is powered by a battery box, or there is no doorbell currently there. Depending how tech savvy you may be, the actual Ring doorbell setup with your wifi, the Ring chime and the Ring app on your phone can be quite quick or may take longer.

Service Specific FAQs:

Do You Fit Other Video Doorbells?

Of course! Just because we're Ring professional Programme accredited doesn't mean we solely provide Ring doorbell installation services. Having said that - if you ask us our preference, we'd likely say go for Ring - and if we're supplying the doorbell, we're very likely to go for Ring, simply because of its track record for good quality and longevity.

Wired Ring Doorbell Vs Battery

Battery Ring Doorbells can have a much lower cost for installation. They could even be done by a DIY enthusiast! The compromise is simply convenience - and the higher running cost of replacing the battery (and the security screw you keep dropping!) Make an enquiry with us to come and see how close you might actually be to having a wired doorbell.

Can A DIYer Install A Ring Doorbell?

Ring Doorbells are designed to be easily installed by a DIYer, especially the battery versions. If you want low risks and less headaches, however, you may also consider using a professional tradesperson familiar with the kit.

My Ring Doorbell Won't Connect To Wifi

Check your Wi-Fi signal strength at the doorbell location.
Ensure you're entering the correct Wi-Fi password during setup.
Restart your Wi-Fi router and doorbell.
Consult Ring's support resources or contact their customer service for further assistance.

My Ring DoorBell Is Blurry And Has Poor Quality

Ensure the lens is clean and free of debris.
Adjust the video resolution settings in the Ring app.
Check your internet upload speed at home and ensure you have a good connection when you're out; a slow internet speed can affect video quality

How long does a Ring Doorbell Installation take?

Ring doorbell installations can be fairly simple if there is already a doorbell powered by a transformer connected to the mains, or you simply want a battery Ring doorbell installed. A wired Ring doorbell installation starts getting more complex when the current doorbell is powered by a battery box, or there is no doorbell currently there. Depending how tech savvy you may be, the actual Ring doorbell setup with your wifi, the Ring chime and the Ring app on your phone can be quite quick or may take longer.

What's the difference between wired and battery-powered Ring doorbell installation?

Wired Ring Doorbell Installation:

Requires existing doorbell wiring: Your home needs to have functional doorbell wiring for connection.
Involves electrical work: You'll need to connect the doorbell wires to the Ring doorbell terminal screws. Consult a qualified electrician if you're uncomfortable with electrical work.
Offers continuous power: You don't need to worry about recharging batteries, ensuring consistent doorbell operation.
May require additional tools: A drill and screwdriver are typically needed for mounting and wiring connections.

Battery-Powered Ring Doorbell Installation:

No existing wiring needed: Ideal for locations without doorbell wiring or for renters who might not want to modify the property.
No electrical work involved: We can simply mount the doorbell and get you set up
Requires periodic recharging: Frequency depends on motion detection activity video recording settings, battery age and the outside temperature.
Simpler installation process: Generally easier and more cost effective to install due to the lack of electrical work.

How secure is a Ring Doorbell from theft?

The Ring doorbells come with their own security screw that requires a special shaped screwdriver to remove, making it more challenging for casual thieves.
