Motion Zone Size/Area
wireless-security-cameras
I have a Ring Stick Up Battery camera that is operating fine. My question is: Is there a minimal size that a motion zone can be set to? I want to focus the motion alerts to just a gate area. But there appears to be a minimal size that the motion zone can be set to. In this case the gate is probably 30-40 feet away from the camera. Thanks in advance, Mabry

Hi @Mabry. Yes, there is a minimum size for the Motion Zones. With your gate being 30-40 ft. away, you are a the maximum effective distance for motion detection with our Ring devices. Typically, when a camera is properly placed, 30 ft. is the longest distance you can expect to get effective motion detection. This Help Center article [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041664712-The-Security-Camera-Placement-Guide#:~:text=Make%20sure%20your%20cameras%20are,thumb%20for%20mounting%20security%20cameras.) will explain this in better detail. I hope this helps!
