    We love this alarm system based on the ease of set-up. Plug in the base-unit, plug in the keypad, and then set each sensor. The directions are straight-forward and the app makes configuring the system volume and alarms very easy. I especially liked that each of the contact sensors was perfectly sized to fit on standard windows.

    I had 2 sensors out of the 12 I purchased not work properly but Best Buy replaced them with no problem. Overall its a good system and nice sensors. They are larger than competitor sensors, SmartThings, Iris, but I assume they will have a better battery life. The magnet part is too large to fit on the window so we used the older Iris magnets instead. You have to connect one sensor at a time unlike Iris where you could connect all the sensors at once.

    I bought the Ring Alarm package at a great price, but the package only has enough contact sensors for windows and doors for a tiny house or apartment. I’m glad that they have extra contact sensors that can be purchased to expand the alarm system. They are very easy to add to the Ring Alarm system.

    I LOVE RING ALARM and alarm contact center.It has been working great! Took me a little bit to get used to turning it off before opening my doors but I love that you can arm or disarm it through the app on my phone!!! I ordered the professional monitoring from them too for an entire year! Just a great deal all the way around

    I've got several of these mounted on doors and double hung windows and they have been working perfectly. I was lucky in that I had just enough room to mount the standard magnets to the glass so if either window sash is moved...they will "trip" the alarm. If you do not have room, Ring does offer a thinner magnet.

    These are standard alarm door sensors. However they are slightly larger than others. With the larger size, you slightly more distance to play with while still keeping them activated. Very easy to install, comes with command strips style tape and a mounting bracket. You choice on tape or bracket. Overall a good buy.

    These were easy to install and add to my existing Ring Alarm system. They come with both mounting brackets and 3M strips to mount. They work well for both my doors and windows. The alarm dings with the sensors are tripped.

    These are super easy to install and have a great hold. Got the 10 piece starter set that’s been up for nearly 6 months that included 4 window units. They have all been working perfectly in that they don’t disconnect from the system ever. Buying these to finish off the rest of the windows in the house.

    So, I have the Ring Alarm system and purchased a couple of additional contacts like this in order that I could expand my security system throughout the house. It works just as it is supposed to. Thankfully, no one has tried to break in yet, but if I open the windows or doors that have these sensors on them the alarm chimes and it will activate it if it is armed. My only complaint is the size of them. I do wish they were a little smaller, but all in all, they are fine.

    Easy installation and good add-on in case you need a couple more sensors for your ring alarm system to monitor doors or windows that open/close. It beeps and lights up when opened and can also send you notifications to your phone (with ring app installed) to alert you which sensor was triggered.

    Ring alarm system is perfect for home and office. Every thing in your hand turn on and off which adt company charge you 49.99 a month. Spend one time for whole systems and that is your no more contract and work perfectly pay 10 dollar a month. Nor any security company beat this price

    I wanted to purchase a 2 pk but all they had were the 6pk. Ended up being a good idea as I was able to add a sensor to extra doors and even the garage door. This way I will know if I left the garage door open or not. I love these Ring security devices. Super easy to install and apply.

    The contact sensors work seamlessly. We have installed multiple sensors on each door and all windows. We used the tape to install ours, though small screws are included. Easy and effective. Takes no time at all. Ring’s customer service is also really good. Highly recommended.

    I needed additional sensors and thought I might have an issue with pairing the devices to my existing Ring alarm system. That wasn’t the case though, it paired up easily through the app and set up was a breeze. Thank you Best Buy and thank you Ring for a superb product.
