Ring security camera installation can involve more than simply screwing a camera into a wall. The work depends on where you want the camera, the surface you’re mounting it to and whether it uses battery, solar, plug-in or hardwired power. A Tasker can help with the hands-on installation, from mounting the camera and securing cables to adjusting the view and checking the setup.

Indoor security camera installation

For Ring’s indoor camera range, installation usually starts with choosing a spot that gives you a useful view without putting the camera somewhere awkward or easily knocked over. A Tasker can assemble the stand or mounting hardware, position the camera on a shelf or wall, secure the mount and route the power cable neatly to an outlet. They can help position and adjust the camera so the view covers the area you want. Getting the placement right yourself can mean a lot of moving, measuring and rechecking.

Outdoor security camera installation

Ring’s outdoor camera range can be mounted on walls, ceilings or eaves, with the right fixings needed for surfaces such as timber, brick or concrete. A Tasker can mark the mounting points, drill pilot holes where required, install wall anchors, secure the mounting plate and attach the camera. They can also install security screws, connect a plug-in or solar accessory and secure exposed cables with clips.

Doorbell installation

Ring’s video doorbells need to sit at a practical height and angle so they can capture the area around your front door without obstructing the entrance. Your Ring doorbell installer can mark the mounting position, drill into suitable surfaces, fit the mounting bracket and secure the doorbell using the supplied hardware. 

Depending on the model, they can also connect a battery, install a compatible power accessory or route the cable neatly. If you’re replacing an existing doorbell, they can remove the old unit before fitting the new Ring doorbell.

Power over Ethernet installation

For Ring devices that support Power over Ethernet, installation involves more than simply mounting the camera. A Tasker can help position the device, secure the mounting hardware and route the Ethernet cable between the camera and your network equipment. 

They can also keep the cable secured along walls or other surfaces to reduce loose or exposed sections. If your setup includes smoke or fire alarms, fire alarm installation can also be booked as a separate service.

Ring Intercom installation

Ring Intercom connects to your existing intercom system to let you answer calls and manage access through the Ring app. A Tasker can help install the Ring Intercom unit, connect it to the compatible existing intercom and secure the wiring and hardware neatly. They can then help check that the intercom communicates with the Ring app and that the setup works as expected.
