Installation location

I am considering the basic ring doorbell but I am concerned about where to install it. Specs say motion detected at 5-30 feet. My walkway is along the front wall of the house and about 4 feet away. The door is recessed on one side. Just looking for advice prior to purchase. I am in arural area and the street is over 30 feet away. I have made a rough schetch of the house for reference. ![Layout.jpg|480x640](upload://aHDeBWDryFTvhYao87RcTEkCCdD.jpeg)

    Hey @Wally, we are happy to help! For the environment you've described and illustrated, I recommend using our [Wedge Kits](https://shop.ring.com/collections/accessories/products/wedge-kit-for-video-doorbell) for mounting. With there being stairs leading up to the Doorbell mounting location, its best to use a wedge for a slightly angled view that will catch approaching visitors much more efficiently. Check out [our article](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002582206-Using-a-Wedge-Kit-to-Properly-Position-your-Ring-Video-Doorbell) for an illustration on how these work best with your property :)
