    Easy to install and does what it's intended to do. Only problem with the product is it's price. $19.99 seems to be kind of pricy for 3 molded pieces of plastic. 1/5th of the cost of the Ring Video Doorbell that's mounted on it. I've had it for 2 weeks.

    The (4) screws that fasten the ring doorbell to the wedge are extraordinarily short. After the wedge is fastened to the wall, the alignment of the screw holes is distorted. It’s very hard to get the doorbell mounted outside without losing these tiny screws. To make matters worse, I called Ring, asking for more screws and they sent me the wrong ones.

    Hi JEFF.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.

    We understand the importance of a seamless setup process so that you can begin using your Ring device right away. The wedge kit is designed to position your Ring Video Doorbell for optimal performance. We can definitely provide you with more information regarding the concern mentioned in your review.

    It sounds like you are experiencing some difficulty when installing the wedge kit with your device. All of our doorbells and cameras are designed to be a fairly simple DIY (do-it-yourself) installation. We strive to include all needed parts, tools, and instructions to make the process seamless for our customers. We include a variety of screws with the wedge kit. The shorter screws should be used to attach the mounting bracket to the wedge kit. Once the bracket is installed, the Ring Video Doorbell (2nd Generation) should easily slide onto the bracket and be secured using the provided security screw. Visit our support center for more information and a helpful video on how to install the wedge kit with your device: https://ring.com/support/articles/e099b/Using-a-Wedge-Kit-to-Position-Video-Doorbell-Gen-2.

    The holes in the wedges did not line up with the holes in the ring cameras. I had already clipped the little nubs off of the back of 2 wedge (when the first one didn't line up I tried a second one) so I did not feel I could return the kit.

    Great, but with caveats
    We are on our second ring, having moved to a new house. The Video Doorbell is great. That’s why we bought a second one. However, what is NOT SO GREAT is having to pay for a wedge kit. When we installed our first Ring, these were part of the package. Aw, come on Ring. You can do better than this.

      junk
      It could have been a good product but they provide 4 tiny screws to hold the ring connecting plate to wedge. The screws are too short to reach holes on wedge. The hole alignment was questionable, too.

        Hi Dissatisfied. With so many different Doorbell models, it can be confusing to find the correct accessory for your Doorbell. I'd be happy to point you in the right direction. Since you have the Video Doorbell 4, you will need to purchase the Wedge Kit for the Video Doorbell 4 specifically. Otherwise it will not be compatible. I would suggest reaching out to the retailer you purchased the Wedge Kit from so they can help you get the correct one. All the best, Ashley from Ring. Ring

            Hello,

            As a leader in home security, we strive to produce parts and accessories which are easy to install. The Ring Wedge Kit should come with all the necessary screws to complete the installation. Please know we hear your concern and are here to help.

            To properly mount the Wedge Kit, it's crucial that the flat side of the kit faces the wall. Otherwise, the provided screws won't be able to seat properly in their designated screw slots. Do you recall which side of the kit you placed towards the wall?

            We invite you to view our step-by-step installation video on our YouTube channel. This way, you can reference a visual guide throughout the installation.

            Can you please reach us when you get a moment? We'd appreciate the opportunity to work with you and help ensure you have a Ring device you can count on.

            All the best,

            Definitely has its flaws
            The good news: it provides a straight level for the doorbell. The bad news: not a perfect fit. Some of the provided screws are not long enough. Be better off just customizing a wedge for a very small fraction of the cost.

              It works, but doesn't look nice when installed. Has gaps, and makes the ring doorbell sit far away from the wall. The black one is the incorrect fit, this did fit, but you have to drill completely bew mounting holes, they don't line up with the ring base holes, be better if it did. My advice would be to make your own out of oak, or thick plastic cutting board material.

              Hello Dt1,

              We are happy to have you as a part of the Ring Community, and thank you for sharing your experience with us! Having the proper installation instructions available to you is essential, as this ensures a quick and seamless set up. If you’re installing your Ring Video Doorbell Pro on a house with aluminum siding or on a house where the door is at the top of a set of stairs, our wedge kit is a great solution. The kit, once installed, will help catch a visitor’s motion but minimize "false positive" motion alerts, such as cars on the street.

              Please see the link below to watch a helpful video on how to properly install the Ring Wedge Kit. https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002582386-Using-a-Wedge-Kit-to-Properly-Position-your-Ring-Video-Doorbell-Pro. Did you happen to install the included screw anchors as well? This should secure the screws into the building material so they do not come loose when the button is pressed or pressure is applied to the device.

              If you have any further questions after watching the video, please visit our community forum at https://community.ring.com/ for some additional advice and support.

              Thank you, Jamila with Ring. Ring
