A retrofit for flats with an existing audio-only buzzer system. It works with the building's wiring rather than replacing the panel, so check your intercom type before ordering. The video is cloud-based and there is no local stream, so treat it as a door-release and notification device rather than something to build offline automations on.
What can Home Assistant control on the Ring Intercom Video?
| Control | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Ding | Event | Fires when a visitor presses the button |
| Motion | Binary sensor | Motion at the door |
| Unlock | Button | Triggers the door release relay |
Home Assistant's built-in Ring integration signs in to Ring's cloud, so everything depends on your internet connection and Ring's servers. Expect ding and motion events and a way to trigger the door release, with no local RTSP stream. Live video in Home Assistant is also limited compared with Ring doorbells that expose a stream through the integration.

Frequently asked questions
- Does the Ring Intercom Video work with Home Assistant locally?
- Partly. The Ring Intercom Video connects to Home Assistant through a built-in Home Assistant core integration (Ring), which relies on the Ring cloud. It works in Home Assistant, but commands go via the internet and stop working during an outage of your connection or the Ring service.
- Which protocol does the Ring Intercom Video use, and do I need a hub?
- The Ring Intercom Video uses Wi-Fi. To pair it with Home Assistant you need no hub — it joins your Wi-Fi network directly. Ring's own hub is not required when you integrate through a built-in Home Assistant core integration (Ring).
- How much does the Ring Intercom Video cost in the UK?
- The lowest price we have listed for the Ring Intercom Video is £99.99 at Amazon UK. Prices were last checked in November 2026 and change often, so confirm on the retailer's page before buying.
