What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?
ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ service modernizes the tradition of giving a neighbor a key to your home. It does away with the requirement for physical keys or passcodes and allows you to oversee who can go in your Allentown home and for what timeframe. Discover more about how it works with your ADT home security system and Google Nest surveillance.
How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?
You have neighbors you trust to tend to your plants, retrieve your mail, or walk your dog when you go out of town. In the past, you would simply provide them a key to your house. You now have a better option. Thanks to ADT's Trusted Neighbor Feature, you won’t have to worry about doors left unsecure or lost keys.
What you need is an ADT security system, a Google Nest video doorbell, a compatible smart lock, and the ADT+ app that brings it all together. Here’s how to set it up:
- You grant access to a trusted person, like a neighbor or relative, with the ADT+ app.
- Following that, you set permissions. You can provide neighbors with timed access, allowing them to enter and exit during specific hours, or event-based entry. To illustrate, if a delivery is delivered, the system can unlock the door to allow your neighbor to move it in once it verifies them.
- Once you’ve set up access, your Google Nest Doorbell camera uses familiar face detection to validate your neighbor as they come near the door.
- Your ADT security system will pause the alarm and deactivate the lock when the approachee is confirmed as a permitted user.
- You are sent real-time alerts as your family member, friend, or neighbor enters and exits. The app also supplies a complete history.
- After the trusted neighbor exits, your smart door lock secures independently to protect your home.
You can provide access for anyone you want, such as a service technician, pet sitter, or a companion who shows up when you’re away. This service is also useful during urgent situations, specifically when you’re away. For instance, if a water sensor goes off, your system can authorize event-driven access so an individual can enter and turn off the water. The intuitive app makes programming permissions simple.
Make Your Allentown Home More Secure, Convenient, And Connected
ADT Trusted Neighbor is a perfect example of how ADT makes life easier and your Allentown home smarter and more secure. This service isn’t just for neighbors and relatives, as you’ll appreciate the facial recognition and auto-unlock capability when you’re carrying little ones or packages. Once you're inside, the door automatically locks behind you.
