About ADT
ADT has a reputation as being one of the most trusted names in home security. For close to 150 years, ADT has created new equipment and services in residential and commercial security. ADT developed the first automated burglar alarm in the 1940s and the first automated fire alarm around the same time. The biggest new service in the security field, however, may have been when ADT launched the central monitoring stations in the 1930s. This made it possible for homeowners to continuously have a live ADT rep watching over their alarms, around the clock.
The same commitment to customer-focused, best-in-class security is still found in today’s ADT. Built on the latest technology, ADT monitoring ensures that your system is backed by a live person who will send out emergency personnel quickly to your home if needed. Other services, including home automation, can now be integrated with your residential security system and powered through your ADT Command wireless touchpad. ADT even gives you access to your alarms, cameras, and smart home components with your devices with the powerful ADT Control application.
