If you’re thinking about a new home security system, consider the many benefits of ADT. Here in Elmhurst, around the Midwest and all across North America, people are recognizing that the expertise of ADT brings peace of mind.

A history of service

ADT was founded in 1874 as American District Telegraph. It first got into security in the 1880s, and by 1901 the company’s security operation became independent of its signal business. Over the next century, its expertise in security only got stronger. Today ADT is the #1 home security provider in the United States. ADT is always getting better. 

Comprehensive home security

There’s a big difference between a security system and a burglar alarm. ADT’s years of experience and expertise have yielded a comprehensive approach to security that benefits commercial, government and residential customers throughout North America.

ADT Monitored Home Security Systems protect against:

• Burglary
• Fire
• Flooding
• Carbon monoxide poisoning
• Freeze damage

What’s more, with their personal emergency pendant that can be worn either around the neck or the wrist, ADT can even be there in the case of a medical emergency.

Why choose ADT?

ADT monitors home security systems 24/7 with live operators located at nine networked monitoring centers across North America. The company responds to 50,000 crimes in progress each year – and ADT’s terrific availability makes a big difference for those who need them. Imagine – having a team of professionals standing at the ready to assist you in the event of an emergency – all for about a dollar a day. That’s less than the price of a morning muffin!

Though there are different packages available to ADT customers, they all come with some standard pieces of equipment. Every package includes:

• Three points of protection

Sensors are placed at any combination of windows and doors. The system can be set to chime, alert you by automated voice or remain silent if a covered entry point is opened or closed. The automated voice can even alert you to exactly which sensor has been tripped (“kitchen,” “bedroom 1,” etc.).The audio notification can also be turned off. This system is expandable and you can add additional sensors to cover additional entry points at any time.

• Infrared interior motion detector

While you’re sleeping or away from home, the motion detector adds another layer of protection to your home security. This terrific feature can also be programmed to recognize a family pet weighing up to 80 pounds.

• High-decibel alarm

If an alarm is tripped, this high-pitched sound will both alert the homeowner to an emergency and help to scare away an intruder, as well.

• Digital keypad

Simple to install and easy to use, the keypad is your connection to ADT. It’s where you’ll enter your code when arming and disarming the system, and it’s through this unit that you can contact emergency personnel should you ask to have one-touch access added to your service.

• ADT yard sign and window decals

Let your neighbors know how proud you are to use ADT – and warn potential intruders of exactly what they’re up against.

• Keychain remote

So long as you are within 50 feet of the main unit, this remote allows you to arm, disarm or use the panic feature of your system. Talk about convenient!

Proviso is a wonderful place to live, work and raise a family. It’s because you’ve worked so hard to achieve all those things that ADT wants to work equally hard to help you protect it. Additional features can be added to further safeguard you and your loved ones.

• Two-way voice technology

This feature turns your keypad into an instant connection with an ADT operator. You can contact them from anywhere within 75 feet away from the keypad.

• ADT Pulse

Lets you control your system from your cell phone, tablet or computer.

• Glass break sensors

High-intensity microphone detects the low-frequency crack and high-frequency shatter. This sensor can be supplied for free as a substitute for the infrared motion detector.

The wireless home security option

Not only is the wireless system a great aesthetic choice, it also has value for a few other reasons. It’s the perfect choice if you’re in a location that is not easily upgradeable, or if you’re moving soon and want to take your system with you. Because the wireless system doesn’t depend on a landline to connect to ADT, your protection will not be affected should an intruder cut a phone line.

Adding CellGuard® is a sound choice here. A transmitter is added to a homeowner’s control panel that connects to ADT using the area’s cell towers.
