    Easy to install to add more sensors to Ring alarm system. A bit pricey to buy as separate sensors compared to a kit.

    I switched from a hard wired security system to a Ring Alarm system. Had absolutely no trouble installing contacts or setting them up in my Ring app.

    Great, easy to use and activate. There is one sensor from the pack however that seems to always need to be reset.

      Hi DavidR.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your Ring experience with us and other consumers. We believe in keeping people close to what’s important. That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your visitors from wherever you are. Together, we’ll make neighborhoods safer!

      If your Ring Alarm Contact Sensor (2nd Generation) won't connect or is added as a binary sensor, please follow these steps:

      Remove the contact sensor from its base.
      Ensure that the batteries are installed.
      Open the Ring app.
      Tap the menu (☰).
      Tap "Devices."
      Tap "Alarm Base Station" or "Alarm Pro Base Station."
      Tap "Base Station."
      Tap the "Device Settings" tile.
      Tap "Advanced Options."
      Tap "Z-Wave," then tap "Remove Z-Wave Device."
      Tap "Remove." The Ring app will say, “Remove device, listening for device to remove.”
      Do not tap “Reset Z-Wave Network.” This will remove your entire Ring Alarm network, and you’ll need to reset every device.
      Press and release the pinhole reset button. The device should be removed successfully and can be re-added using the Ring app.

      If the contact sensor is still waiting or attempting to connect to the Ring app, the Ring app is prompting you to perform a factory reset.

      To perform a factory reset, please follow these steps:

      Slide the Ring Alarm Contact Sensor (2nd Gen.) off of its base. Ensure that the batteries are installed.
      Press and hold the pinhole reset button.
      Continue holding down the pinhole reset button until the LED light turns red, then release.
      Re-add the sensor to your Ring Alarm using the Ring app.
      While repeating the setup process, you will be prompted to pull the battery tab. You may have to use a small tool, such as a microscrewdriver, to carefully remove the coin-cell batteries from the casing of your contact sensor, then reinsert them.

      We invite you to reach out to our community if any additional information is needed regarding your question. The Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another by sharing their feedback and experiences with each other.

      Thank you,
      Melissa from Ring. Ring

    Needed to purchase these to finish securing my downstairs windows. I’d recommend a ring security system anytime. Best value.

    Great addition to the alarm system bundle kit I purchased but needed a few extra contacts for Windows. These pair easy with the ring alarm system!
