To install the Ring Peephole Cam in your home, you’ll need a door that’s 24 to 55 mm thick (a standard width), along with a peephole. But being battery-operated, it’s something you can do yourself. Ring gives you a step-by-step guide and manual for the Ring Peephole Cam, which I suggest following to a tee. First, make sure to charge your Ring battery to completion, which allows it to last from six months to a year depending on usage. Next, take out your current peephole using the tools Ring provides for you. Place the camera so it faces the visitor, and use the tools to make sure it’s evenly placed.
Next, install the tube and wire to connect the camera to the battery, on the inside of your door. Make sure the wire is nice and taut in the battery’s port. Next, you can connect the Ring Peephole Cam to Wi-Fi by scanning the QR code in the battery case. From there, the Ring— Always Home app will walk you through the rest of the process, having you perform tests each step of the way to make sure you’re installing it correctly.
