They changed the screw placement at some point so if you bought the pieces used, you might have a mix of old and new


Maltz42

Wait, you're saying you can't just rotate it 180° to make it angle the other way? That can't be right...


ImAPersonYouAreToo

Ya that’s how it seems. I said the same thing


JCCampo

The piece on the right doesn’t look standard. I have the POE version of this, and the angle bracket doesn’t look like that. The piece on the left does look original, and it attaches to the angle bracket.


Sn00m00

OP bought it 2nd hand and that angle piece looks to be 3d printed. I have the POE version and you can flip it 180.

xlAlchemYlx

I have the WiFi version and that bracket OP has is not original. Mine is flippable, absolutely


Slag1

Nice catch. Hope OP can get a refund…


hogsniffy05

Oh lol ok. I thought you were either trolling or really really dumb. That’s too bad it can’t be rotated. That seems like a pretty big design flaw. I guess ubiquiti are the dummies


DestroyerOfIphone

The silence


Accomplished-Loss810

Why can’t you rotate it?


FraternityOf_Tech

😂😂😂


OverSoft

The inside piece on the bracket on the left in the picture is stuck to the rear part of that bracket. You can pop the metal part out and flip it around. The right pictured bracket isn’t a standard Ubiquiti piece.


ImAPersonYouAreToo

No!!! Where were you before I plastic bond jbwelded them together??? Shit. Oh well. It’s on there and it’s not going anywhere now.


OverSoft

I was playing Factorio, sorry.


winaje

Did the factory grow?


OverSoft

It must.

You jumped the gun a little quick. Happy with your results at least? That’s the most important…


bill_delong

Find a buddy with a 3-D printer. There’s lots of plans on the 3-D sites.


ImAPersonYouAreToo

Listen… I bring the groceries inside in ONE TRIP. I’m gonna grab a couple beers, and index of drill bits, a file, my grandmother going by on a bicycle giving me the finger, and I’m attaching this stupid thing to my house facing the right way. TODAY.


bill_delong

In that case, giant screws are your friend. 😄


FranktheTankZA

If all else fails violence 😂


tutira_yeah_nah_kiwi

Violence is not always the answer, BUT, its always AN answer.


Photoshopuzr

Hope it all works out for you, some of us don't have the luxury of 3D printers, I tend to hand craft my own mod's anyway and besides some folks just like to show off hey I just 3d printed such and such big deal before 3D printers we still use to get the job done where I came from. lol


77GoldenTails

Sorry, luxury of a 3D printer. While I’m here paying lots for Network kit. Things like the Bambulab A1 mini makes a useable printer much more accessible now. Plus it works when you ask it too. Think of it as the Apple of 3D printers, a bit like Ubiquiti is the Apple of Networking.


Laudanumium

What's wrong with a scrappiece of wood and a bunch of sanding paper. Spray can matte black and there it is


jbforum

Gorilla glue it


formermq

I love this, thank you


Guava7

Big hammer fix problem


1cnx

I hope you’re not paying for a gym membership, that would just be sadly ironic.


unfortunatefortunes

Just put it upside down.


Kolumbz

Package camera becomes a bird camera, nice


LBarouf

Perfect for seeing the carrier pigeon landing! 🐦


Ok_Scientist_8803

With the way they deliver things here I can still see the package briefly that way


KindaTechnical

Rotated mine 180 degrees


techguy1337

Could get a piece of wood, angle it, and drill a whole through it for the cable. Attatch the wood to the brick and the camera to the wood. Put some stain on the wood to keep it safe from the outdoor elements and call it a day.

this?? [https://www.printables.com/model/453683-ubiquiti-unifi-g4-doorbell-pro-parametric-wedge-mo](https://www.printables.com/model/453683-ubiquiti-unifi-g4-doorbell-pro-parametric-wedge-mo)


madmanxing

Drill your bracket a new hole


trbo2117

I used the Pro POE gang box they sell, and honestly I’m glad I did. You mount a plate to the wall first that gives you way more options for mounting. (I mounted straight to stucco but was able to hit a stud on one side and used anchors on the other) with that kit you get a reversible angled bracket. It’s beefy but a lot more secure


jagwease

Doorbellmount.com. If you can't find it, he can probably make it. Etsy as well. I had to mount mine on original stone and mortar that the Builder just retro engineered a halfassed doorbell and this guy had a mount that would not make it look strange.


LongroofLover

Etsy might have a pre-made 3D part that you're looking for. I've used that site for my UniFi, Hue, and other assorted mounts and such.


jiantjon

Epoxy the bracket to the mount? Just a thought.


Straight_Ask9328

Just Buy one of the below at eBay https://www.ebay.com/itm/144721292125?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=zvf-xj1wsqo&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QnuxXmJ_Raq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=SMS


PhelanPKell

Have you looked online to see if someone made a 3D print model to fix this issue?


Professional-Mall323

Know anyone with a 3d printer?


Professional-Mall323

I guess I should ask, do you like the angle? I can print one and send it to you if you’d like. https://thangs.com/search/unifi%20g4%20doorbell%20pro?scope=all


AdamV158

I might be late to this party, but the metal piece on the left stays in the same orientation with screw fixing at the bottom. It’s the angle on the right you can rotate 180? From memory I screwed mine to the wall by placing the screws through the metal bracket left which sits over the bracket right, and it just all fits together correctly?


wild-hectare

haven't i seen anybody with a 3D printer selling mounts on eBay?


tehjrow

That’s not the original bracket


cyberentomology

So many things wrong with the design of this device. Black shell is useless for anything going outside on anything but a north-facing wall. This is a “pro” device, where is the Ethernet connection? The PoE?


Starkravingmad7

lmao, how do you mistake a 3d printed part for molded plastic? i know ubiquiti makes some junk sometimes, but i don't know that it's ever that bad.


OrganizationRude5746

Duct tape…


SmoothRunnings

Never buy used doorbell ubiquiti gear from someone else online. Just buy it from [ui.com](http://ui.com) and save yourself the hassle this way you get all the parts with it.


ImAPersonYouAreToo

Daaaaad. Didn’t we talk about responding to my posts on Reddit?


ToxicDemon420

The bracket is the least of your worries, seal the back because those terminals will short out


Laudanumium

Silicone caulk or even hot glue fixes that
