ADT home security systems are backed by more than 145 years of experience. As the leader in home security, ADT can help you customize a home security system with easy-to-use equipment and special security features to meet your safety needs. We have service centers nationwide that can install an ADT home security system within 24 hours in most areas. Once your home is equipped with our top-of-the-line system, it is connected to a network of ADT Monitoring Centers nationwide which deliver non-stop security monitoring 365 days a year. All of our installation technicians are internal employees, and not third-party contractors. You can count on your Security Advisor to take the time to set up your system properly, help you understand how the system works, and help make sure your home and family are thoroughly protected.

"The alarm, when it goes off, is very loud!!! This is a good thing. If we ever need to activate it, it will definitely scare off anyone trying to come into our home. We can set it off from our phone or from the keyboard control panel that we installed in our bedroom. We feel very safe with this purchase."

"I’ve had nothing but problems with SafeStreets. The installation was a mess—took hours longer than promised, and the technician seemed clueless about the system. When I called customer service, they were rude and unhelpful. The security system itself is glitchy and keeps going offline. Definitely not worth the hassle."

Home Automation questions, answered by experts

A potential weak link in any security system is poor connection strength or dropped signals, particularly in the case of a fully wireless system. You also want to ensure a reliable connection to get a hold of your service provider quickly. Also, you should exercise caution when handing out sign-in credentials to people outside the household.

You can increase your home’s load factor by replacing fuse boxes with a circuit breaker, hiring a licensed electrician to upgrade your electrical panel, upgrading wiring, or installing subpanels. An electrical inspection by an expert can help determine the state of your current electrical systems and how they can be improved.

Smart windows can last anywhere from 10 to 50 years. It depends on the type and brand of smart window you choose and how much usage your windows get.

These are some of the critical considerations when planning to make your home accessible:

  • How wide are your doorways, wheelchair ramps, hallways, and pathways? These should be at least 32 inches wide.

  • Which bathroom modifications will be necessary? 

  • Do you need to lower any cabinetry or other fixtures to make them accessible for wheelchair users?

  • Is there enough room to turn around in the shower?

  • Is there a second story of the home that requires a stair lift?

  • Is there proper lighting outside in the dark? If not, a floodlight may be necessary.

Costs depend on property size, network complexity, and labor rates.
