How-To Guide

How to mount your Ring Base Station on a
wall (optional)
You can mount your Base Station on a wall using two wall
anchors, two screws, and the mounting slots located on the
unit. The Base Station can be horizontally mounted.
Before you begin
Please Note: Ring Alarm is for indoor use only.
Before you begin, choose an appropriate mounting place.
The wall can be made of cement, wood, or drywall. The
mounting location should be free of obstructions on all
sides, and the cables should be able to easily reach the
Base Station without strain. Leave sufficient clearance
between the bottom of the Base Station and any flooring or
shelving underneath to allow access to cabling. In addition,
leave enough slack in all cables so that the Base Station
can be removed for any required maintenance without
disconnecting the cables. Also, you will need the following
items:
• Two wall anchors for #8 x 1-inch screws
• Two #8 x 1-inch pan head screws
• Drill with a 3/16-in. wood or masonry bit, as appropriate
for the wall composition
• A copy of the wall-mounting illustrations shown in figure
2 (at right).
• Mount the Base Station as shown in figure 1 (at right)
