Alarm Monitoring Is About Who You Trust
When it comes to recognizable names in the home security industry, most people know the name ADT Home Security. In fact, the name is synonymous with alarm monitoring. Surprisingly, most people assume they are a company that was formed in the past decade or two, offering the latest innovations in home and family protection. However, they have been around for more than 135 years, and have been a leader in professional security services since 1874!
With its six alarm monitoring centers strategically located around the nation, ADT has positioned itself as the #1 alarm monitoring company in the United States. These centers effectively handle nearly 20 million calls each year, from the more than 7 million customers and the United States.
A basic home security package, including alarm monitoring, runs about a dollar a day. These intruder alarm systems include the master control panel—the brain of the operation, door and window sensors for instant alarm notification should a door or window suddenly open or get broken; state-of-the-art motion detectors that help protect a defined perimeter like a family room, home office, home theater, or gun room. Should an intruder breach a security zone, the motion sensor will instantly send an alarm to the master control panel. The included high-decibel siren will alert everyone in the house to the intrusion, as well as notify any neighbors within range that a burglar is in the neighborhood. Often, this very loud siren is enough to send a burglar on his way without stopping for any reason whatsoever.
In addition to the primary security components, these systems also include a wireless keychain remote for one-button arming and disarming of the entire home security system. Never again struggle to remember a password or PIN number. Not remembering these codes can lead to false alarms. 24-hour battery backup is also part of the standard home security package, included to help ensure there's never an unprotected moment; yard signs and window decals will let potential burglars know they've chosen the wrong house, and of course professional installation from one of more than 6,000 well-trained installers and service technicians nationwide is standard in these intruder alarm systems.
