Do not buy! This screen protector does not fit! The halo effect they describe is in fact the screen protector not appropriately fitting the s7. This screen protector is flat. The s7's screen had curved edges. The halo is where the screen protector doesn't adhere to the screen.

Ring Wi-Fi Smart Video Doorbell: Find out who's at your door, even when you're away from home. Just connect the doorbell via Wi-Fi and use the Ring app on your iOS or Android device to interact with visitors, receive alerts and review footage.
 

I need to mount it on my gate which is approximately 70' from the interior of the closest room in my residence. the signal has to pass through the garage and then thru the door/wall from the garage into the residence. As a result will this function ?

Really depends on your Wi-Fi. You could get a Wi-Fi repeater to extend the signal closer to the gate.
