What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?
ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ tool brings the age-old practice of giving a neighbor a key to your home into the technological age. It eliminates the necessity of actual keys or keypad codes and lets you manage who has access to your Greenville home and for how long. Learn more about how it works with your ADT home security system and Google Nest surveillance.
How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?
You likely have neighbors you trust to feed your plants, retrieve your mail, or take your dog out when you leave home. Typically, you would just give them a key to your home. There’s a better way to do it now. Thanks to ADT's Trusted Neighbor Feature, you won’t have to worry about misplaced keys or doors left unsecure.
What you need is an ADT security system, a Google Nest video doorbell, a an automated door lock, and the ADT+ app that permits everything to function in unison. Here’s how the service works:
- You assign access to a trusted person, like a neighbor or close friend, with the ADT+ app.
- Next, you configure permissions. You can provide neighbors with timed access, allowing them to enter and depart during a particular timeframe, or event-based access. For example, if a package arrives, the system can release the door to let them take it indoors once it validates them.
- When you’ve set up access, your Google Nest Doorbell with familiar face detection identifies your neighbor as they proceed toward the door.
- Your ADT system will pause the alarm and release the door lock when the person is confirmed as a permitted guest.
- You are sent real-time alerts as your neighbor enters and departs. The app also provides a complete history.
- After the trusted neighbor departs, your smart door lock secures automatically to shield your home.
You can authorize access for any person you would like, such as a repair person, animal sitter, or a partner who shows up when you’re out. This tool is also helpful during urgent events, specifically when you’re off site. For example, if a water sensor trips, your system can grant event-driven access so a neighbor can shut off the water supply. Programming permissions is easy with the user-friendly app.
