Exact height your Ring doorbell MUST be – and breaking official rule means your home is exposed by motion ‘blind spot’

This motion is used to trigger the Ring doorbell into recording video, so you might miss out on some footage if the motion sensors aren’t in the best position.

So if you’ve forked out on a fancy Amazon-owned Ring doorbell, you might as well get it set up properly – don’t let your money go to waste.

Of course, you can always move the doorbell back to its original position if you find that you’re getting too many (or not enough) motion alerts.

“The proper positioning of your Ring Video Doorbell depends on a number of factors including the layout of your garden, the distance from your front door and the street, objects within the doorbell’s field of view, the height of the door and more,” Ring noted.
