Let me start by saying this Blink Doorbell Mount is a game-changer for renters or anyone who doesn’t want to drill into their door. The anti-theft design is legit—it encases your Blink doorbell so snugly that thieves would need to open your door to yank it off. I tested this by (gently) trying to wiggle it loose, and it didn’t budge. Major peace of mind!
Installation? A breeze. Seriously, it took me under 5 minutes. Just slide the mount over your door, adjust the clip for thickness, and pop in your Blink doorbell. No tools, no fuss. The plastic-and-metal build feels sturdy, and the holes are perfectly placed—no blocked motion sensors or muffled audio like some cheaper mounts.
But here’s the catch: CHECK YOUR DOOR TYPE FIRST. This only works on inward-swinging doors (1.6–2.3" thick). One reviewer learned the hard way with a mobile home door—total no-go. Also, if you have a storm door, beware: closing it might block the camera view (a bummer for porch-package surveillance).
My gripes? The tiny screws feel flimsy (don’t overtighten!), and the lack of a paint-protection pad on the tightening screw is a miss. My door now has a tiny scuff—annoying for renters trying to avoid damage.
Verdict: For $20-ish, it’s a solid pick if your door qualifies. Just weigh the quirks against your needs!
