It should. The kit comes with a resistor that you need to use if your existing doorbell has a digital chime. The old fashioned "ding-dong" mechanical bells don't require the resistor installed at the doorbell. There is a range for the voltage that the Ring doorbell requires, I think it is 16-24 volts, the information should be on the ring.com website. All doorbells have transformers (either mounted separately or in the chime box) that step down household 120v to the range your present doorbell works within.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, you have to get the wired ring door bell. This one is for a non existent door bell.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Works perfectly with existing chime. I could have easily done the setup but I was already paying Geek squad for other stuff and just had them install it. MAKE SURE YOUR WI-FI IS CLOSE ENOUGH FOR COMPLETE SIGNAL TRANSMISSION. A Wi-Fi booster is easy to install but can be difficult to connect to the Ring system as it is an extension of your Wi-Fi and requires a EXT on the end of the Wi-Fi ID.
