Prior to installing your Ring Doorbell, it is important to turn off the power to your existing doorbell. You can do this by switching off the power at the circuit breaker. This step is crucial for ensuring your safety while working on the installation.

Make sure it is level before tightening the screws. Once the bracket is securely in place, you can attach the wires from your doorbell to the terminals on the mounting bracket.
