Doorbell will be mounted lower than recommended

Question

In order to replace my existing doorbell with a Ring, it will have to be mounted lower than the recommended 48 inches.  The camera will be approximately 39 inches abve the ground.  Should I mount it flat or attempt to mount it angled up?  If the latter, what would be the recommended angle I should shoot for?  Thanks!

Hey @wxmanrocks, we're happy to offer some guidance here. Which Ring Doorbell were you looking to replace your existing doorbell with? We do recommend a mounting height of 48 inches as mounting it too low or too high can impact the motion detection. Also, do you have stairs leading up to your front porch, and does your door face a busy street? These are other factors that can affect the angle at which we may want the Doorbell installed.
