About ADT
ADT has a reputation as being a trusted national brand in residential security. For close to 150 years, ADT has created new equipment and services in home security. The company built the first automated burglar system in the 1940s and the first automated fire alarm soon after that. The biggest new service in the security industry, however, may have been when ADT built the central monitoring centers in the 1930s. This guaranteed that residents would continuously have a live person backing up their security system, 24/7, every day of the year.
The same principle of customer-centric security can still be found in today’s ADT. Built on the latest technology, ADT monitoring ensures that your security system is monitored by by a security specialist who will dispatch emergency personnel at once to your home if needed. Other services, such as home automation, can be paired with your residential security system and powered by your ADT Command wireless touchscreen. ADT also offers access to your sensors, video surveillance, and smart home with your mobile devices with the all-encompassing ADT Control app.
