What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?
ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ tool brings the common practice of providing a neighbor your house key into the modern age. It does away with the need for physical keys or access codes and permits you to control who can go in your Bloomington home and for what timeframe. Discover more about how you can implement it with your ADT home security system and Google Nest doorbell camera.
How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?
You have neighbors you trust to feed your pets, get your mail, or water your plants when you leave home. Typically, you would just supply them with a key to your home. You now have a better option. Because of the innovative ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature, you won’t have to be concerned about doors left open or lost keys.
What you’ll need is an ADT security system, a Google Nest video doorbell, a compatible smart lock, and the ADT+ app that allows everything to function in unison. Here’s how it works:
- You grant access to a trusted individual, like a relative or neighbor, via the ADT+ app.
- Next, you configure permissions. You can give neighbors timed access, permitting them to enter and exit during specific hours, or event-based access. For instance, if a delivery shows up, the system can unfasten the door to let them bring it inside once it verifies them.
- When you’ve configured access, your Google Nest Doorbell camera with familiar face detection recognizes your neighbor when they come near the door.
- Your ADT security system will pause the alarm and release the door lock when the individual is confirmed as a permitted user.
- You are sent instant alerts as your neighbor comes and goes. The app also provides a complete log.
- After the trusted neighbor departs, your smart door lock secures automatically to shield your home.
You are able to provide access for any person you want, such as a service technician, animal sitter, or a companion who arrives when you’re out. This tool is also helpful during emergencies, particularly when you’re away. For example, if a water sensor goes off, your system can authorize event-driven access so a neighbor can switch off the water supply. The intuitive app makes configuring permissions straightforward.
Make Your Bloomington Home More Secure, Convenient, And Connected
ADT Trusted Neighbor is a perfect example of how ADT makes life easier and your Bloomington home more versatile and secure. This tool isn’t just for neighbors and relatives, as you’ll appreciate the facial recognition and auto-unlock operability when you have your hands full of little ones or deliveries. Once you're inside, the door secures behind you automatically.
