The original Ring Smart Alarm launched back in 2019 in the UK, at the time, Yale was the best alternative options, but there has been a growing number of alternatives. Netatmo and Somy both have smart solutions, and SimpliSafe also launched in the UK in 2019. Since then, Eufy has got in on the action offering an affordable alarm systems and many other competitors have show up, including SafelyTeam which I am currently reviewing.
A lot of the more affordable smart home alarms lack an outdoor siren and this included Ring, however the company have now fixed this with their latest launch.

Yesterday, Ring announced its all-new Ring Alarm Outdoor Siren, alongside the next generation of Ring Alarm. Ring Alarm Outdoor Siren seamlessly integrates into your Ring Alarm security system, providing both audible and visual alerts to you and your neighbours if your Alarm system is triggered. Now with a brand new design, Ring’s customisable Alarm system offers affordable, commitment-free security where it’s needed most, keeping you connected to your property when you are both home and away.
Alert your Surroundings with Ring Alarm Outdoor Siren
The all-new Ring Alarm Outdoor Siren integrates seamlessly with Ring Alarm and can be customised to fit your needs with its versatile power and setup options. In addition to a sleek design, Ring Alarm Outdoor Siren has an adjustable siren, which can be controlled via the Ring App, plus built-in LEDs which flash red when your Ring Alarm is triggered, to alert you and your neighbours to a potential security issue. With Ring Alarm Outdoor Siren’s Dusk to Dawn feature, you can use your siren as an everyday security sign, illuminating white at night time for extra visibility and an added layer of security.
The Next Generation of Ring Alarm
The next generation of Ring Alarm features a sleek, new design and incorporates even more security features into your Alarm system, to suit any type of home. With an updated Alarm Keypad, customers can utilise one-touch buttons to sound the Alarm or to activate Assisted Monitoring (with Ring Protect Plus) and notify three preset contacts that there is a medical emergency or a fire. Plus, the Keypad’s Modes buttons make it easy for customers to set their Alarm to Disarmed, Home, or Away Mode as needed. Ring Alarm (2nd Generation) has newly designed sensors that are smaller, more compact and easy to mount so they can fit into smaller spaces, for added convenience and flexibility where it’s needed most.
“At Ring, we’re focused on customer feedback and are excited to add this latest product to our expanding range–giving our customers the tools they want, to build out their home security systems,” said Dave Ward, Ring’s Managing Director for Europe. “Now, more than ever, we expect technology to make our lives easier, safer, and more convenient. By introducing Ring Alarm Outdoor Siren, alongside our next-generation Ring Alarm system, we’re focused on giving our customers more options to expand their Rings of security in an effective way, no matter their home setup.”
For whole-home security, Ring Alarm can be linked to existing Ring Video Doorbells and Security Cameras within the Ring App, so that when the Alarm is triggered, it automatically activates all Ring cameras to begin capturing video, even if they do not detect motion. Alarm is also compatible with select Alexa-enabled devices, so users can arm, disarm and check the status of their Alarm with simple voice commands.
