- A: AnswerHi DaniRodriz. Great question! Yes, you can use the Ring Alarm Outdoor Contact Sensor on an interior door. There are many entry points where Outdoor Contact Sensors can be used to secure your home, including: entry points in fences and gates, sheds and garages, as well as doors and windows that may be exposed to the weather and climate. When installing, make sure that the sensor is not too far away from the Base Station, and check that when the door, window, or gate is closed, the space between the Sensor and magnet are 1 inch or less. There needs to be at least 1/2" of space so you can slide the cover open to change the batteries.

It's also important to note that the Base Station is required for the Outdoor Contact Sensor, and the Base Station requires a wifi connection.
