    After having the Ring security system set up im my house, I realized that I didn't cover one of my doors. I ordered this sensor from Best Buy and decided to do it myself. The install was very simple. I got it early and I was pleased.

    We added this motion detection sensor for our lower level for additional security to our home following a break in. Only wishing we had purchased the system sooner. This has added to our peace of mind while we are home and away.

    So far all 15 sensors are working great. I forgot that we placed one in a new location where I never had one with ADT. When I opened the door I hadn't turned the alarm off and suddenly I see Ring Alarm on my phone. So they are working.

    Purchased this sensor to add on to my existing Gen. 1 Ring System. Works as expected, easy to set up with the Ring App. The Gen. 2 sensors are a little bit larger than the Gen. 1, but barely (wasn’t an issue). Very happy with the performance of the Ring Security System.

    May Not Align to Decorative Door Casings.

    Purchased product to place on back patio door. Door has glass panes so wanted extra security. Product well made and I really like the concept, but had to return because I have a decorative interior door casing which prevented the sensors from aligning perfectly. Rated 3 stars because did not see any information in product description about potential alignment issues with door casings.

    I had to purchase additional sensors for my ring alarm system. I didn’t have enough with my initial purchase. These are easy to put up and respond well to the alarm. Ring is the easiest alarm system to I stall yourself. I highly recommend this system.

    Fairly easy to install and set up. They seem to work well so far. I would have liked them to come with extra sticky strips. I ended up having to reposition a couple and after doing that there was no sticky left. I cut down some 3M command strips, but the stick doesn't feel as sturdy. I checked online and they don't offer replacement strips - they just advise to use 3M Command Strips and cut them down to size. So far, happy with the purchase.

    I needed a couple of these to replace a couple of 1st gen sensors that did not work very well on my doors due to the shape of the trim. They can be separated a bit farther apart than the first gen sensors and work great

    Love these things. I wish there was a way to where you could move them different places. They are sort of a stick on permanent deal. But they work flawlessly and I have over 12 of them on my windows and doors.
