Ring Door View Cam Secures Your Home Entrance

Ring is an Amazon company and in recent times it is becoming an interesting option to protect our homes or second homes. In this case, what we have been able to prove is the Ring Door View Cam, a camera that is placed in the peephole of your door and that ensures that we can see the person who is knocking at the door from anywhere.

In addition, this camera adds something very interesting for this type of surveillance products and that is that its battery lasts a long time, it issues notifications when it notices vibration in the door (settings) and it is really easy to remove the battery to charge and have vision available when we are away from home. In this way what we ensure is that we never have our house, office or similar in the open.

What's in the Ring Door View Cam box

Let's start with what we have in the box with this Ring Door View Cam. And it is that no matter how complicated the installation may seem, it is really simple and in the box we find everything you need for it. In this case we have the camera itself with its flat cable that is connected to the battery, the 6040 mAh 22,046Wh battery, the rear part of the peephole in which the camera goes with a through to screw it in, tool to remove the peephole, USB to microUSB cable to charge the battery, stickers and its user manual.

The exterior measurement is 9,73 cm x 4,70 x 1,93 cm and the interior is 12,2 x 5,74 x 2,95 cm. In this case the Ring Door View Cam is compatible with doors with a thickness of 34 to 55 mm What we can say would be most of the doors. This is an important piece of information since it will depend on this thickness whether it works for us or not at home.

Camera installation on our door

It may seem complicated as we have commented previously but it is the opposite. The installation of the Ring Door View Cam does not require tools beyond those that are added in the box itself and the first thing we have to do is download the Ring application that we find in Ring's website for the different platformss among which Mac App store, App Store, Windows and Play Store are included, then we can start the registration process to continue removing the peephole that we have installed on our door with the tool that is added in the box.

Once we have the application installed and configured, all we have to do is continue with the assembly process and for this we have to eliminate the old peephole. Now what we have to do is pass the tube of the Ring Door View Cam and the protective sleeve inside the door. Once it is over, we simply place the inner part, which is the white one with the battery already charged. We tighten the gray plastic female and connect the cable, the installation is ready. You will find all the steps in the manual that is added in the box, it is really easy to install.

What is the Ring Door View Cam for?

The function of this camera is simple and clear. What they want to achieve is that can you see in HD, hear and speak to the people who ring the bell or the door of our house from anywhere with our Mac, iPad, iPhone or any other device. It is also fully compatible with Alexa, so receiving notifications when we have a visitor and seeing who is in front of the door of the house with the Echo Show or the Echo Spot is another of the virtues of this camera.

La Ring product line allows to provide a affordable, comprehensive and proactive security in our home thanks to its wide range of products and you can have functions beyond those of seeing and communicating with the people who knock on your door since they have a subscription service called Ring Protect plan. 

Ring Protect is a service of Optional subscription that allows us to save, review and share all our videos at any time and in any situation. We can use first a free 30-day trial of the Ring Protect plan with our new account and then we can subscribe from only € 3 per month. Basic functionalities such as instant notifications, live video, and two-way communication are available for free.

The firm also adds an anti-theft device protection in which they replace the Ring Door View Cam is free, but subject to payment plan. In this sense we have to clarify that the camera is well fixed on the outside of the door and is difficult to remove since it is attached to the inside of the home. Obviously, if someone stretches with force or uses a lever on it, they will end up breaking the camera itself and can take it away, but This will not have any use since the cable would be broken and the inner part contains the battery and other components necessary for its operation.
