Mounting a Nest doorbell camera on a perpendicular wall

I am considering buying a wired Nest doorbell cam but I have a problem. My current wired, conventional, doorbell is on a wall perpendicular to my front door. In other words, the wall is at a right angle to the wall where the door is. Placing it where my current doorbell is would result in the video camera viewing my house's side lawn instead of the walkway that leads to the front door. I've been looking at some swivel mounts but they don't seem to swivel enough, plus very few are made for wired doorbells. If you've had the same problem and solved it, or know how to do so, I'd appreciate your information. Thanks!

Hi there, 

Sorry to hear you're experiencing this, as I can imagine it has been an inconvenience. I would love to look into this further for you. I know that there are wedge options for our Nest doorbells, and that may be exactly what you are looking for. Here is an article with some great tips you can follow. 

Best regards, 
Brad

Hello everyone,

@GwenTessa just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.

 

I appreciate the help, Brad.
 
Regards,

I have a Google Assistant question. I just got a nest system. Having problems with "remember." One example: "Hey, Google. Remember I put the label maker in the family room closet." Google says they remember. To test I say, "Hey, Google, where is my label maker?" Google starts spouting off stores where I can buy a label maker. I tried this a half dozen ways, and substituted some other words for "label maker" but got the same response. What's going on?

Love this question, but I am afraid this is the Nest Cameras and Doorbells forum, and you probably want to send this request/inquiry into the Apps and Accounts forum for more thorough assistance from the community there. We'll be locking this thread in 24 hours, but it will remain open until then for any follow-up questions or concerns. 

 

Best regards,

Brad
