  This is AMAZING NEWS! I've got the same issue and I was logging in to Ring to figure out how to make this recommendation/request. I'll be purchasing too. I have 23 sensors on my first floor alone ... and about that many on the second level, plus yet even more on the basement. I had no intention of protecting all of my pre-wired perimeter windows/doors with costly wireless sensors so this is a capability that is mutually beneficial to Ring and its customers! Thank you Ring!

  I had the retrofit alarm kit installed by a technician from HelloTech for $99 last week. It took them about 2 hours to wire up my entire house. It works perfectly and i would recommend it if you have an existing wired alarm system like i did.

  Something to consider . . . every wired system I have seen is wired in zones. This is done becuase the wires string from window to window then return. So when a window is open you get something like "zone 1 - back of house". Having individual window/door sensors is really nice, so you get "kitchen north side window open". This caused me to abandon wired systems.
