Ring Video Doorbell
Wedge mount upside down
The heighth location of my doorbell is kind of low and doesn't get the upper part of the person. Would be useless if I can't see the head of the person. The wedge kit typically is used when it's on a higher location pointing downward. Can it be the mount be installed on the wall upside down so it angles the camera at an upward angle so I can capture the upper part better? Will the camera be mounted upside down if I do this and cause other issues? Or can the mount be install on the wall upside down and have the ring attached right side up?

I understand the potential inverse effects, but I have a ring door at the bottom of my basement entrance. I’d like for the doorbell to catch motion as soon as someone starts walking down the steps. Could this justify installing a wedge mount upside down?

I have the same issue. My wired doorbell was mounted low and facing sideways. When the video pro doorbell was installed, I had to get a couple of angled wedges to pan it to the right a bit, but I am noticing that I can’t see people’s faces sometimes, particularly if they stand a bit closer to the door. Wouldn’t an additional 5 degree vertical wedge allow a slight tilt upwards to see the faces of people ringing my doorbell?

Hi @Ghosstryda. I wouldn't recommend this. Adjusting the angle up could adversely affect the way your doorbell detects motion. I would try one of our [No Drill Mounts](https://ring.com/collections/accessories?filters=category:video-doorbell,category:video-doorbell-2,category:video-doorbell-3,category:video-doorbell-3-plus,category:video-doorbell-pro,category:peephole-cam,category:video-doorbell-elite,type:installation-mounts) to get this placed at the proper height. I hope this helps!
