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."

"AMAZING! He's earned my trust. Shawn's incredibly knowledgeable, patient & kind. Not to mention easy on the eyes! Nice guy, for sure. It's clear he loves techy stuff & has an easy way of explaining things. I'm honestly shocked his prices aren't much more. His level of expertise coupled with his teaching skills are impressive. Here's what happened; I THOUGHT my computer was broken. I actually made a few lengthy (customer service calls first. I have no idea what button i pushed or didn't push when my computer starting going crazy! It seemed like 20 - 40 new tabs opened up simultaneously... one immediately following the next! I panicked & pushed something. I think i pulled a few cords! The screen turned black, then flashed, now random letters & possibly numbers started typing themselves out! I really don't know, it happened so fast. The moment I saw a blue screen, i unplugged it! I called some customer service #, was on & off hold for literally hours, transferred to this one & that one. The tech.'s were all nice enough although hard to understand. I was in tears! After 2 separate calls & hours on the phone, I gave up. Honestly, I wanted to throw it all out & start over. I was talking to my friend about this nightmare. She told me about "Shawn Moore" of "Shawn's Wholesome Store." She really went on & on about him. I called him right then & there. I was pleasantly surprised how many questions Shawn asked. Usually they don't want to discuss anything until they're on the clock. He has a calming, empathetic confidence about him. Now the big question, is this going to brank the bank? I agreed to an inperson diagnostic test. Shawn arrived early to our appt. dressed in khaki's (not jeans). Our appointment went better than I could have hoped for! He explained a few things then asked if I was interested in having a training session with him. I very much appreciate anyone who asks first instead of charging me for a service that I didn't know I was getting. I thought i needed my computer 🖥 to be replaced. In the end, Shawn was able to recover all of my files, saved my photos & fixed my computer. Since then, I've had 4 different remote sessions with him. "I bought a package of 6 training sessions." I feel more confident everyday to work with my computer & phone. Oh, while he was here, he noticed my cell phone screen was smashed. I thought I had to replace that too. Nope! He fixed that too."

Home Automation questions, answered by experts

Yes, these services often increase home value by preventing moisture-related issues and enhancing the usable space in basements or crawlspaces.

Smart light switches are designed to work with traditional switch wiring, so they should work within your home. However, you will need a Wi-Fi connection to use them properly. Older models may use different connection standards like ZigBee, which must be supported to control them.

When deciding whether a home automation system is right for you, consider the advantages and disadvantages first.

Pros

  • Home automation can help make your home more energy efficient, possibly lowering utility bills.

  • A wide range of automated solutions is available to meet your needs.

  • Centralized and remote control of different home automation systems.

Cons

  • Home automation can be costly.

  • Not all automated systems are compatible with each other.

  • Over-dependence on home automation can be problematic if systems cannot connect to the cloud.

This depends on their overall level of experience and familiarity with the industry. For instance, any general contractor worth their salt can easily handle putting in a soundbar, but setting up an advanced system requires advanced experience. Smart home installers have an industry focus, meaning that they are always up to date with the latest and greatest pieces of relevant technology.

If your home security system relies on the internet for operational purposes, then there’s a chance someone could hack into it. Fortunately, the chances of hacking occurring are low, but it’s something to be aware of. Wired security cameras or cameras that store data on a local server and not a cloud-based server have an even lower probability of getting hacked.
