Make Fort Smith a safer place for your family and home with ADT security

Historians know Fort Smith, AR, as a citadel of law and order in the Wild West. Everyday people know it as a pleasant place to live, work and raise a family. But since safety and security are as relevant today as they were in the 1800s, ADT is there to help ensure that Fort Smith residents continue to enjoy their 21^st-century quality of life.

ADT provides security solutions for more than 6 million homeowners, businesses and government agencies throughout the United States and Canada. The company has been helping people keep their loved ones and valued belongings safe for decades. With those kinds of credentials, it’s easy to see why consumers have made ADT the #1 provider of electronic security services on the entire North American continent.

And when you consider everything that ADT can do for you and your family, the decision to become an ADT customer will be an easy one to make.

The highest level of comprehensive protection

Some companies might be content to offer rudimentary burglar alarms. With ADT, you get something far different — whole-home security.

ADT uses equipment that not only helps guard against break-ins but also monitors your home for:

• Smoke and fire
• Carbon monoxide
• Flooding
• Freezing

In a typical year, ADT acts on more than 29 million alarm signals and responds to more than 50,000 crimes in progress.

Home security is a job that requires vigilance on many fronts, and no other company offers this level of comprehensive protection. In fact, no other company comes close.

A network designed for rapid response

It’s not enough to detect a threat. A security provider should also respond to it quickly and efficiently — and that’s the essence of ADT’s approach.

ADT helps protect your home with infrared motion sensors, high-decibel alarms and other sophisticated equipment. Meanwhile, a nationwide network keeps a lookout for alarm signals 24 hours a day so that you and the local authorities can be contacted immediately.

ADT operates nine regional command centers throughout the United States staffed by expertly trained dispatchers. These centers are interconnected to form a monitoring platform with built-in backups. If one location encounters a problem — an unusual amount of alarm traffic, for example — the others can step in to carry the load.

Most of ADT’s competitors have only one monitoring center. In some cases, these centers aren’t even directly managed by the security company.

ADT looks out for your entire family

Home security means more than protecting property. It also means keeping people from harm. That’s why ADT offers security solutions that take every family member into account:

• 3 Points of Protection is a standard feature with every ADT monitoring bundle — not to mention a must-have for parents of active toddlers. You can program the system to emit a chime or voice alert (such as “front door open”) when activity is detected at one of the protection points.
• One of the features available with an ADT upgrade is the personal emergency pendant. Seniors and family members living with medical conditions can wear a necklace or bracelet that puts them in contact with ADT at the touch of a button.
• Because pets are family members too, all ADT monitoring bundles feature pet-friendly motion detectors that can be programmed to tell the difference between your dog or cat and an actual intruder. A reduced risk of false alarms means fewer trips to the doghouse.

Remote access from yards away — and miles away

Let’s say you’re backing out of the driveway when you realize that you left the house without activating your alarm system. ADT’s keychain remote, another standard feature, gives you access within a 50-foot range of your home’s central control panel.

But what if you have one of these moments of realization when you’re much farther away from home — say, on a family outing to Blanchard Springs Caverns, a three-hour drive from Fort Smith?

By adding ADT Pulse to your monitoring package, you can control the alarm system from virtually anywhere with a cell phone, computer or mobile device.
