Video doorbell pro 2: using the old buttin & the ring

installation

video doorbell pro 2: I ran a new wire & mounted the ring doorbell on the on the opposite side of the door frame, for better visibility. Can I leave the old button hooked up / Use both buttons at the same time / Piggy back / daisy chain the pro 2 off my old doorbell button? seems to be working fine, eather button press will chime my mechanical doorbell now. Basically just wanting to double-check this is ok to do. Thanks :)

    Hi @G4. This is not a recommended way to install your Doorbell Pro 2 with a pre-existing chime. I would suggest installing your Pro 2 as instructed in our [installation guide](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360054675132-Video-Doorbell-Pro-2-Installation-guide-), as any other way could affect your Pro 2's performance now or later on. If you need any further assistance with your Doorbells hardwiring, I strongly recommend consulting a qualified electrician for further assistance.
