Features

Overview: The Ring Alarm Security System (2nd generation) is an expandable home security system that helps keep your home, family, and valuables safe. The kit includes a base station, keypad, motion detector, contact sensor, and range extender (all 2nd generation components). Additional sensors can be added to your system to give you extra layers of protection. The Ring Alarm also works with Ring security cameras, smoke detectors, and video doorbells. You can keep track of what's happening in your home through the free Ring App, available for iOS and Android devices. Optional Ring Protection plans can be purchased, starting at $3.99 per month.

Five Piece Kit: This 5-piece Ring Alarm Security kit is designed for small homes, condos, or apartments, covering up to 1000 square feet. It includes the base station, a sensor to add motion detection to one room, a contact sensor to protect one window or door, a range extender, and a keypad. You can also add other Ring sensors, such as the Ring Smoke/CO Listener or the Ring Flood/Freeze Sensor to give you extra layers of protection for your home.

Base Station: The Ring Alarm Base Station controls your entire home security system. It connects to your home network, either via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, and communicates with all of your Ring Alarm devices. It also links to third-party Z-Wave and Zigbee devices, such as smoke and CO detectors. The Base Station has a built-in 110-decibel siren, and a 24-hour backup battery. It can be placed on any flat surface, or wall-mounted with the included hardware. Dimensions: 6-5/8"W x 6-5/8"H x 1-1/2"D.

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: 4-1/4"W x 4-7/16"H x 3/4"D.

Contact Sensor: The included Contact Sensor lets 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. Sensor Dimensions: 2-1/8"W x 1-1/8"H x 9/16"D.

Motion Detector: The Ring Alarm Security kit includes one Motion Detector, which sends 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: 2-5/8"W x 2-5/8"H x 1-7/16"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: 1-7/8"W x 3-1/16"H x 1"D.

Ring App: The free Ring - Always Home app pulls together all of your Ring devices, including the Ring Alarm 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.

Optional Protection Plans: The Ring Alarm Security System keeps you connected to your home in real time, with instant alerts sent directly to your smartphone or tablet. If you have Ring security cameras or Video Doorbells, you also get live view and 2-way talk. A free 30-day trial of Ring Protect Plus is included when you initially set up the Ring Alarm. Ring Protection Plans do not require contracts or long-term commitments. You may cancel your subscription at any time. As of April 2023, there are three subscription plans available:
