Wyze Doorbell Wedge Kit: Install for Better Angle

Quick answer

Install the Wyze Video Doorbell v2 Wedge Kit to tilt your doorbell and eliminate blind spots on angled door frames or porches with stairs. The wedge adjusts the viewing angle for maximum coverage without complex wiring.

Installation steps

1. 1. Remove the doorbell from its mount: Press the release button on the bottom of the Wyze Video Doorbell v2 and slide it upward off the mounting bracket. Set the doorbell aside. Common mistake: pulling the doorbell straight off instead of sliding up — this can damage the release tab.
2. 2. Choose the wedge angle: Hold the wedge piece against your door frame or wall. The kit includes two angles: use the smaller wedge for a slight tilt (about 15°) on a gently angled frame, or stack both wedges for a steeper tilt (about 30°) on a porch with stairs. Test the view by holding the doorbell against the wedge before mounting. Checkpoint: mark the screw holes with a pencil after deciding the angle to avoid drilling in the wrong spot.
3. 3. Attach the wedge to the mounting bracket: Place the wedge piece(s) between the mounting bracket and the wall. Use the longer screws provided in the wedge kit to secure the bracket through the wedge into the wall. Tighten until snug — do not overtighten, or the plastic may crack. Common mistake: using the original short screws — they won't reach through the wedge into the wall anchor.
4. 4. Reattach the doorbell: Slide the Wyze Video Doorbell v2 back onto the mounting bracket from the top until it clicks into place. Confirm the wedge tilts the camera toward the area you want to cover (e.g., the walkway or package drop zone). Checkpoint: open the Wyze app and check the live view — if the angle is still off, remove the doorbell and adjust the wedge stack before finalizing.
5. 5. Fine-tune the angle if needed: If the first attempt doesn't cover the desired area, remove the doorbell, unscrew the bracket, and swap the wedge orientation (e.g., rotate the wedge 180°) or change the wedge thickness. Reattach and recheck the app view. Common mistake: assuming the wedge only works one way — you can flip it left/right to steer the camera horizontally as well.
