Have you ever come across those advertisements on social media, news outlets, or even from your friends and family regarding the latest doorbell cameras that allow you to see who’s at your front door and talk to them even when you’re away? If so, you might be wondering how do they work and which camera model is better than others.
Today, we’ll be discussing the ability to remotely monitor your home from any smart device like a phone, tablet, laptop, or PC.
In 2013, Ring became the leading provider of technology that allowed homeowners to see who was at their front door even when they were away from home. This made it much easier to know when guests were arriving or to verify whether or not the delivery driver really had delivered that package.
Ring designed their cameras and user interface to be easy to install and use for everyday people. There is nothing complicated to remember - just open the app, select the camera you want to view, and within seconds, you can see a bird's eye view of your front door, back door, or any other area where a camera is installed. Ring cameras also have the ability to record to the cloud, providing additional security and piece of mind.
Is Ring a DIY?- Yes, they are surprisingly easy to install. While there are many models available, our experience has shown that the Pro Series is the best option. It's important to invest in quality remote viewable technology, as you get what you pay for. The added benefit of installing a Ring at your front door is that it can replace your existing doorbell and use its existing power source.
Where to buy? - After years of installing various models, we have found the Pro series to be the most effective and compatible with existing doorbell systems. Amazon is a great source for these cameras and offers next day delivery to Prime customers. Not sure which one to buy? Support our blog by using our link HERE. Once you have it, download the Ring app, and follow the easy step by step installation guide to remove the existing doorbell and connect it to the new Ring System. We’re here if you need help! :)
