Overview
This Ring Alarm kit bundles one base station, one keypad, one contact sensor, one motion detector and one range extender into a wireless DIY security system sized for a condo or apartment. It runs through the Ring app and expands later with additional sensors sold separately.
Ring sells the hardware and the monitoring separately: the kit arms and disarms on its own with app or keypad control, while 24/7 professional monitoring, cellular backup and remote arming need a paid Ring Protect subscription. Alexa voice control also depends on that subscription being active.
- Base station, keypad, contact sensor, motion detector and range extender included
- Expands with additional Ring sensors sold separately
- Alexa voice control for arming and disarming
- Optional Ring Protect Plan adds 24/7 monitoring and cellular backup
Who it's for
Suits a renter or small-home owner who wants a starter alarm system that grows sensor by sensor as the home changes. Less suited to anyone who wants monitoring bundled into the hardware price, since the subscription is a separate ongoing cost.
Pros and cons
- Setup takes minutes with mostly wireless components
- Expands easily from a small apartment to a full house
- Cheaper long term than a professional-install service like ADT
- Remote arming and 24/7 monitoring require a paid subscription
- Door and window sensors run larger than some competing brands
- Outdoor components drain batteries fast without an added solar panel
Performance notes
The base station links to the keypad, contact sensor and motion detector over Ring's wireless protocol, with the range extender pushing signal to sensors placed farther away. Arming and disarming work locally from the keypad or app; features like cellular backup during a Wi-Fi outage and 24/7 professional monitoring only turn on with a Ring Protect Plan.
