About ADT
ADT is known as the gold standard in home and commercial security. For over 145 years, ADT has pioneered new equipment and services in residential and commercial security. ADT created the first automated burglar system in the 1940s and the first automated fire alarm shortly after that. The biggest innovation in the security world, however, may have been when ADT built the central monitoring centers in the 1930s. This ensured that residents would continuously have a live person backing up their alarms, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
The same commitment to customer-focused security is still found in today’s ADT. Built upon the latest technology, ADT monitoring ensures that your security system is backed by an ADT rep who will dispatch emergency departments at once to your house if needed. Other products, including home automation, can now be paired with your residential security system and controlled through your ADT Command wireless touchpad. ADT even offers access to your alarms, video cameras, and smart home components through your phones and devices with the easy-to-use ADT Control app.
