Home security in the 21st century
Like every other part of your life, home security has undergone major technology-driven changes over the past 20 years. With the growth of inexpensive electronics and the increasing power of computer chips, ADT home security continues to offer exciting new options to improve your home security. Here are some of the most powerful devices currently on the market.
CellGuard Technology: For many homeowners, landlines are a thing of the past. Instead, people rely only on cell phones. ADT has introduced CellGuard to accommodate these customers. In the event of an emergency, a signal is transmitted via cellular technology to one of ADT’s four interconnected command centers, ensuring a rapid response.
Closed-Circuit Television Cameras: The peephole is a thing of the past. Today, sophisticated home security cameras allow you to see who is outside your door (or gated driveway) from a screen inside your house or apartment. With a broadband Internet connection, you can monitor the perimeter of your home from anywhere in the world.
2-Way Voice: Especially useful for elderly homeowners at risk of a fall, 2-Way Voice enables communication with a trained home security professional from virtually anywhere inside the home (up to 75-feet from a panel).
Carbon Monoxide Detection: Intrusion can’t be your sole focus when it comes to home security. You also need to think about carbon monoxide and fire detection, two areas in which an ADT security system excels. The affordable add-ons to a standard plan will help keep your family safe if there is ever a fire or carbon monoxide leak inside your home.
Fingerprint Locks: Keys can be lost, or duplicated by a criminal. For the easiest method of restricting entry to your home, add a fingerprint door lock. This will help ensure that only authorized persons can open your door.
Use technology to make your home more secure. With help from the experienced professionals at ADT, you can create the strongest fortress in your neighborhood.
