About the Ring Alarm Pro 14-Piece Security Kit

Whole-home security and built-in Wi-Fi 6
Ring makes home security better, easier, and more affordable than ever with this Alarm Pro 14-piece Security Kit. Why pay for professional installation when you can set up Ring Alarm Pro by yourself, in just minutes? This kit comes with everything you need to get started — you don't even need any tools.
Ring Alarm Pro gives you peace of mind and eero Wi-Fi 6 connectivity at an affordable price.
The heart of the system is its base station, which doubles as an eero Wi-Fi 6 router. So, in addition to affordable home security, you'll be updating your wireless network to speedy, next-generation Wi-Fi 6.
Modular system
Connect the base station to your modem via Ethernet cable to create an easily extendable mesh network. It communicates with the rest of the alarm system's components wirelessly via Z-wave technology as you add them to your system. The base station also provides visual and audio feedback regarding system status changes and events, including user-configurable "chirps" that sound when a device is tripped.
Those trippable devices include motion detectors, contact sensors, and outdoor contact sensors. This kit includes two motion sensors and eight contact sensors, but you can add on as many as you need to get the coverage you want. They have a range of 250 feet from the base station, but the included range extender can double that range. Intelligent motion sensitivity reduces false alarms from pets.
The included pair of streamlined keypads are intuitive and easy to use. They have clearly marked emergency buttons for police, fire, and medical response (Ring Protect Pro plan required for use). They also allow you to arm and disarm the system, bypass certain sensors, or trigger the alarm. Each keypad comes with a quick-release wall bracket so it can stay mounted or go with you from room to room.
Monitoring options
You can monitor and control your home's security on your smartphone using the free Ring mobile app. But if you want an extra layer of protection, you can purchase a Ring Protect Pro plan. For $20 per month, or $200 per year, you can get 24/7 professional monitoring of your home.
When your sensors get tripped, your base station will inform the monitoring center to call the authorities. Cellular backup is included in the plan so that you're still covered if you lose Wi-Fi.
This service is a great option if you are planning to add an optional video doorbell or Ring camera to your system, because it includes cloud storage for unlimited Ring devices at a single location. That allows you to save and share your videos, rather than simply monitoring in real time.
The best part? No lengthy contracts and no cancellation fees.
Expandable to fit your needs
If you have a smaller home, you might only need the 8-piece kit instead. You can also add components individually. If your home has more than two entries, it might be convenient to add a third keypad to the system. And you can secure that back door or any especially vulnerable windows with extra contact sensors. And if you've got outdoor gates, doors, or windows, you'll want weatherproof outdoor contact sensors.
If you want to cover a broader area inside your home, pick up an extra motion detector or two. There's also an optional add-on panic button that trips the alarm with one touch.
And don't forget that the built-in Wi-Fi 6 router gives you the ability to expand your home Wi-Fi mesh network with additional eero routers and/or extenders. You can also add up to three power packs to keep your base station running for up to 24 hours when the power goes out.

Features
Overview: The Ring Alarm Pro Security Kit is an expandable whole-home security system that helps keep your home, family, and valuables safe. This 14-piece kit includes the Pro Base Station, 2 keypads, 2 motion detectors, 8 contact sensors, and a range extender. Additional sensors can be added to your system to give you extra layers of protection. The Pro Security Kit also works with Ring security cameras, smoke detectors, and video doorbells. The Alarm Pro Base Station has a built-in eero mesh Wi-Fi 6 router, so you can enjoy fast Wi-Fi and Advanced Online Security. You can keep track of what's happening in your home through the free Ring App, available for iOS and Android devices. The Ring Protect Pro plan, with 24/7 professional monitoring, is available, starting at $20 per month per location.
eero Wi-Fi 6: The Alarm Pro Base Station's built-in eero Wi-Fi 6 router covers up to 1500 square feet with speeds up to 900 Mbps. You can add eero Extenders (sold separately) to expand your coverage, if needed. You should set up the Ring Alarm Pro Base Station as the primary internet router, or "gateway," then add new eero Wi-Fi 6 or existing eero devices as Wi-Fi extenders using the eero app. This setup assures that you can access many of the Protect Pro subscription features. Advanced security features from eero help keep your data, devices, and network protected from online threats.
Add-on Sensors: The Ring Alarm Pro Security kit can be expanded with additional sensors to cover all of the areas you want or need. You can add more contact sensors, motion detectors, and range extenders as needed to protect additional rooms or areas. Other Ring sensors, such as the Flood/Freeze Sensor, and the Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Sensor, can provide extra layers of protection for your home. Adding the Ring Panic Button lets you immediately respond to emergencies. If you have a Ring Protect Pro subscription, emergency responders can be notified by the 24-hour professional monitoring center when the Panic Button is pressed and held for three seconds.
Alarm Pro Base Station: The new Ring Alarm Pro Base Station controls your entire home security system, and provides reliable Wi-Fi coverage through its built-in eero router. All of the sensors are wirelessly connected to the Base Station, and to your computer, smartphone, or tablet through the Ring-Always Home App. The Base Station has a built-in 104-decibel siren, and a rechargeable 24-hour backup battery. It can be placed on any flat surface, or wall-mounted with the included hardware. Dimensions: 6.658"W x 6.648"H x 2.683"D; Weight 1.9 pounds.
Keypad: You can arm or disarm the alarm system with the included Keypad. The Ring Alarm system has three security modes: Disarmed (all sensors deactivated), Away (all sensors activated), and Home (activates designated sensors). Sensors can be placed in your garage, upstairs, or other convenient areas. The Keypad connects to the Base Station via Z-Wave, giving you a 250-foot range. It can be placed on any tabletop or shelf, or wall-mounted with the included quick-release bracket. The Keypad plugs into to any standard power outlet, and has a rechargeable battery to keep it operating during power outages. Dimensions (without wall bracket): 4.131"W x 4.405"H x 0.729"D; Weight 5.75 ounces.
Contact Sensor: The included Contact Sensors let you know when doors or windows are open. The sensor and magnet should be installed side-by-side, no more than 1/4" apart when the door or window is closed. When the door or window is opened, the magnet and sensor are separated, triggering an alert. The sensor and magnet can be mounted with the included tape or screws. The two CR2032 Lithium batteries (included) last for approximately 3 years. It connects via Z-Wave to the base station up to 250 feet away. Sensor Dimensions: 2.09"W x 1.56"H x 0.55"D.
Motion Detector: The Ring Alarm Pro Security kit includes two Motion Detectors, which send an alert when it detects motion in the room. The detector mounts to virtually any flat wall or corner in your home. Advanced motion sensitivity can tell the difference between a person and pets (under 33 pounds), so you get fewer false alarms. The Motion Detector connects to the Base Station via Z-Wave, which has a 250' range. It is powered by 2 AA alkaline batteries (included). Dimensions: 2.6"W x 2.6"H x 1.53"D.
Range Extender: The included Range Extender provides additional range for your Ring Alarm components. It plugs directly into any AC wall outlet, and eliminates dead zones in larger homes, keeping your devices connected. The extender connects to the Base Station via Z-Wave, and extends Z-Wave connectivity another 250 feet. The built-in rechargeable battery powers the Range Extender for up to 24 hours, in case of a power outage. Dimensions: 1.86"W x 3.19"H x 1.66"D (including plug).
Ring App: The free Ring - Always Home app pulls together all of your Ring devices, including the Ring Alarm Pro Security System, Video Doorbells and Security Cameras. The app sends an instant alert to your phone or tablet when someone triggers a Motion Detector, or if a Contact Sensor indicates a door or window was opened. If you have the Ring Video Doorbell, the app alerts you when someone rings your doorbell. You'll be able to see, hear, and speak to anyone on your property through your Ring security cameras. In addition, the app lets you create a virtual Neighborhood Watch and receive alerts from your neighbors. The app lets you zoom and pan for a better look, customize the Motion Zones, times for receiving (or not receiving) alerts, and how often to be notified for motion events. The Ring App is available for Apple iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch running iOS 14.0 or later, and for Android devices running version 9.0 and up. The Ring desktop app has been discontinued, however, all of your settings and Ring features will be accessible in your account on Ring.com.
Works with Alexa: When you integrate you Ring Alarm Pro Security Kit with Alexa, you can arm and disarm your system by speaking to your Alexa-enabled device. With Alexa, you get hands-free access to an Emergency Helpline. In addition, Alexa Guard is a free feature with supported Amazon Echo devices (including Show, Dot, and Plus) that can detect the sound of smoke alarms, carbon monoxide alarms, or glass breaking, when you set Guard to Away mode. You can set Alarm Pro Security to send you notifications when such detections occur.
Ring Power Packs: You can extend the life of the backup battery of the base unit with optional Ring Power Packs (sold separately). These stackable power packs deliver up to 8 hours of backup battery to your Ring Alarm Pro. They also work with eero 6 Extenders. Its sleek design lets you stack up to 4 Power Packs together to keep it powered for up to 32 hours in case of an extended power outage.
Backup Internet: If your internet goes out, Ring's 24/7 Backup Internet will keep your Ring Alarm Pro and other non-Ring devices online with up to 3 GB of data per month. If more data is needed, you can get Extra Data for $3 per additional 1 GB. The Backup Internet service requires an active subscription to Ring Protect Pro. Backup Internet is provided by cellular data from a third party carrier. Coverage, uptime, technology, and speeds will vary.
Ring Protect Pro: The Ring Alarm Pro Security Kit includes a 30-day free trial of Ring Protect Pro, which includes 24/7 professional monitoring, 24/7 Backup Internet, and much more. Professional monitoring provides access to emergency police, fire, and medical response at any time, plus monitoring of your alarms from your Ring accessory sensors (smoke/CO, water leaks, freezing temperatures).
