When we install Ring Alarms to our home, we expect them to keep us safe. If an intruder can easily destroy the device, how safe are we?

Are Ring alarms smash proof? The base stations for the Ring Alarms are smash proof. If something should happen to your Ring base station, it does not disconnect the rest of your Ring system.

The Ring Base Station helps to power the alarm system. If an invader gets ahold of it, you can still rest easy in knowing that the rest of your alarm system will continue to work for you.

Are Ring Alarms Smash-Proof?

The base station’s alarm is considered smash proof. The Base Station will send out a help signal if something should happen. It has an internal damage sensor inside of it and with it being professionally monitored you will get help immediately.

Your Ring App also notifies you if there is an entry delay if the system is armed. This lets you know that someone who does not have the code to the alarm system to shut it off has entered your home.

We know that the Ring Base Station is a major key player in the protection of your home. What are the other components of the alarm system?

What Makes Up the Ring Alarm System?
