About ADT
ADT considered the gold standard in residential security. For over 145 years, ADT has created new equipment and services in home security. ADT created the first automated burglar alarm in the 1940s and the first automated fire alarm system around the same time. The largest advancement in the security world, however, may have been when ADT launched the central monitoring centers in the 1930s. This made it possible for clients to continuously have a live person watching over their home alarms, around the clock.
The exact same commitment to customer-centric, best-in-class security is still found in ADT today. Built upon the latest technology, ADT monitoring makes sure that your alarms are backed by a security specialist who will dispatch emergency personnel at once to your home if necessary. Other products, like home automation, can be synced with your security system and managed through your ADT Command wireless touchscreen. ADT also gives you access to your sensors, video surveillance, and smart home through your devices with the comprehensive ADT Control app.
