Understanding Entry & Exit Delays
Exit Delay gives you a short period of time to leave once you’ve armed Ring Alarm. After you arm your
system, you’ll hear a series of chirps to remind you that there are only a few seconds to exit and close the
door. When your Exit Delay ends, your Alarm is in Armed Mode. Opening your door will trigger the Entry
Delay to begin counting down.
Entry Delay gives you a short time to disarm your Ring Alarm after you open the door. You’ll hear reminder
chirps during the delay, and when the delay ends, if you don’t disarm, your Ring Alarm siren will sound.
To use Entry and Exit Delays on your doors, open the app and set the Contact Sensor placement settings
to Main Door, then customize each delay. You can choose between seconds (no delay) and seconds
( minutes). Just make sure you give yourself enough time to arm and disarm your Alarm.
* If local laws require alarm verification, the monitoring center first dispatches
Guard Response if you’ve opted-in to this service.
