    I thought I had the Ring products I needed in order for these contact sensors to be installed. However, when Total Tech came to my house to install them, we discovered that I need to purchase a hub. Looking into buying this device when Black Friday rolls around, and hopefully it won't be too expensive.

      Hi Maggie.

      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!

      The Ring Alarm Contact Sensor needs to connect to a Ring Alarm Base Station or Ring Alarm Pro to function.The Ring Alarm Base Station serves as the central communication hub connecting sensors to the Ring app. It also triggers alarms and sends notifications to your phone when sensors are activated, and it acts as the control center for arming/disarming the system, adjusting settings, and managing the overall Ring Alarm system.

      For more information on your Ring Ring Alarm Contact Sensor (2nd Gen), we invite you to reach out to our community. Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their personal feedback and experiences with Ring. We look forward to hearing from you if we can be of any further assistance!

      Thank you,
      Miyuki from Ring. Ring

    We bought this extra sensor because we didn't need all of the stuff that came with the 14-piece alarm set. Synced up with the app without any issues!

    The motion detection is not very long range. Will only detect maybe 7 ft radius if that. So you have to be crafty in where you install this unit. Despite the above mention the overall new ring units + cameras works really well together. I feel it’s all synchronized to help protect and secure your home or business.

    I have a Ring system and it came with 4 of them. But I need more to control other things and implement more smart home automations. This 6 pack is a great deal!

    Works well. Bought this to add additional sensors that didn't come with the ring home alarm system. The only issue is the 1 door sensor goes offline for some reason but that came with the home alarm system.

    I was installing my system and found out I needed more window sensors. Amazon had them, but it was going to take 3 days and they were the same price as best buy. Great place to shop.

    Been great but one of the contact sensor is acting up and displays battery drained even though we just placed new battery. Called Ring’s customers hotline and after failed reset, was able to request for new contact sensor. Still waiting for the replacement but other than that, Ring alarm system is great! Worth every device purchase and subscription.
