Quick & Easy — Ring Camera Installation in Raleigh

Wired Ring cameras generally provide more reliable performance because they draw continuous power, so there's no need to recharge batteries or worry about downtime. They also maintain stronger connections and support advanced features like constant streaming. Wireless Ring models are more flexible to install and are often easier for DIY setups, but may need regular charging and can be limited by Wi-Fi signal strength.

When you hire ELECTRIC ALL PRO, our electricians in Raleigh can assess whether a wired or wireless installation makes more sense based on your home layout, camera type, and security goals. We ensure every Ring camera is installed with optimal reliability and coverage.

Most Ring camera installation take between 30 minutes and 2 hours depending on the model, mounting surface, and whether power wiring is needed. Indoor battery units are the fastest, while outdoor floodlight cameras may require ladder work, junction box upgrades, or drilling into brick or stucco.

ELECTRIC ALL PRO completes most Ring camera installations in one visit. Our electricians in Raleigh are trained to work efficiently, respect your home, and get everything working smoothly before we leave.

A Ring camera requires Wi-Fi to function—it's how the device sends alerts, streams video, and stores footage. Without Wi-Fi, most features like live view, cloud storage, and motion detection notifications won’t work. If your Wi-Fi signal is weak, your camera may go offline or miss motion events.

When you book with ELECTRIC ALL PRO, our electricians in Raleigh will test your Wi-Fi signal and make sure your Ring device connects properly. If needed, we can recommend placement or basic extender options.

The best location depends on the model and purpose. Doorbell cameras work best about 48 inches from the ground. Floodlight cams should be mounted around 9 feet high for optimal motion detection and lighting. Angle and direction matter—too much sky or ground can trigger false alerts. Avoid obstructions like trees, poles, or window glare.

Our electricians in Raleigh at ELECTRIC ALL PRO will help choose the right mounting height and location based on your layout, lighting, and coverage needs.

To check if your existing doorbell transformer is compatible with a Ring Doorbell Pro, you'll need to confirm the voltage output. Ring recommends a transformer rated between 16V and 24V AC with at least 30VA of power. Older homes often have lower-voltage transformers that may not support advanced Ring models, which can lead to installation issues or system malfunctions. You can test your transformer with a multimeter or have it evaluated by a licensed technician.

At ELECTRIC ALL PRO, our electricians in Raleigh test your current transformer and upgrade it if needed to safely power your Ring Doorbell Pro. We handle the wiring, mounting, and setup to make sure your smart doorbell works flawlessly from day one.

The best height for installing a Ring camera is typically around 48 inches (4 feet) from the ground. This position allows the camera to capture faces clearly while still monitoring nearby motion activity. For spotlight or floodlight models, mounting higher (around 6–9 feet) ensures wider area coverage. Placement should avoid direct sunlight or obstructions, and you’ll want a clear view of entries, driveways, or high-traffic zones.

ELECTRIC ALL PRO’s electricians in Raleigh know how to position each type of Ring camera for maximum visibility and security. We select the ideal mounting height and angle to ensure your device detects motion accurately and provides clear video footage.
