Get the tools you need to help protect your house with ADT

Every ADT package comes with this equipment:

• Quality Service Plan that covers all of your security equipment.
• A digital keypad that wirelessly connects you with an ADT dispatcher who will get you the help you need from qualified medial, fire and police professionals.
• Keychain remote that can be used to arm or disarm your system from up to 50 feet away. This comes in handy when carrying in a bunch of groceries from the car or if you’re ever backing out of the driveway and realize you forgot to set your alarm.
• A high-decibel alarm that goes off in the event of an emergency. It is very loud and will alert you and may help scare off intruders.
• Protection at three points of entry into your home so you’ll hear a chime whenever a protected door or window is opened.
• Don’t worry that your home will be unsecure during a power outage. Your main keypad comes with a backup battery made exactly for that reason. Any time you lose power, the backup battery kicks in to continue securing your house for 12 hours.
• Yard sign and window decals that let would-be intruders know that you have around-the-clock monitoring by ADT. Seeing these signs may help scare them away from your home.

Plus, you can add these additional security measures from ADT:

• Two-way voice allows you to speak with an ADT monitoring center dispatcher from almost anywhere in your home. This is helpful in case you can’t get to the keypad or phone.
• CellGuard® which uses wireless technology to get you in contact with ADT even if you don’t have a landline phone.
• ADT Pulse gives you the option of using your cellphone to arm or disarm your system from anywhere. You can set your alarm while you are at work or off enjoying your vacation.
• Carbon monoxide detector to protect against carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Smoke and heat sensors to alert you and your family in the event of a fire.
• Water sensors that are perfect for basements and low-level floors to alert you of flooding dangers.
• Low temperature sensors to give you peace of mind in the winter.

Bloomington is home to one of the largest colleges in the state – Indiana University Bloomington. College security should be a priority for you and your student. These tips can help keep your student safe on campus in a dorm room or in an off-campus apartment.

College campus safety tips

• Always lock to door to your dorm, even if you’re just going to the restroom. Don’t let a would-be intruder find your dorm door unlocked with no one inside. Be sure to always lock your door at night, as well.
• Keep the blinds and curtains closed at night so potential burglars can’t see your possessions.
• Make sure your dorm or apartment has a working smoke and heat sensor. Many college fire emergencies are caused by candles or cooking incidents, so never leave candles unattended and always pay attention while cooking.
• Install a chain or latch on the front door if you live in an apartment.
• And for your personal safety, try to always walk in well-lit areas at night, especially if you’re alone. Alert campus security if you think someone is following you.

Home security is important whether your current home is your dream house, an apartment or a dorm room. ADT is one of the few security providers who will install systems in apartments, so help protect the valuables in your apartment today.
