What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?
ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ feature modernizes the practice of giving a neighbor a key to your home. It does away with the necessity of physical keys or passcodes and lets you control who has access to your Fort Myers home and for what duration. Discover more about how to incorporate it with your ADT home security system and Google Nest surveillance.
How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?
You probably have neighbors you trust to feed your pets, retrieve your mail, or hydrate your plants when you leave town. Typically, you would just provide them a house key. You now have a better option. Thanks to ADT's Trusted Neighbor Feature, you won’t have to worry about doors left open or missing keys.
What you’ll need is an ADT security system, a Google Nest video doorbell, a an automated door lock, and the ADT+ app that lets everything function as one. Here’s how it works:
- You grant access to a trusted person, like a neighbor or relative, with the ADT+ app.
- Next, you define permissions. You can provide neighbors with timed access, letting them enter and depart during specific hours, or event-based access. For instance, if a delivery is delivered, the system can release the door to let your neighbor take it in once it authenticates them.
- After you’ve configured access, your Google Nest Doorbell camera employs familiar face detection to validate your neighbor when they approach the door.
- Your ADT security system will disarm and deactivate the lock when the individual is confirmed as a permitted user.
- You receive immediate updates as your friend, neighbor, or family member enters and exits. The app also supplies a detailed log.
- After the trusted neighbor leaves, your smart door lock secures independently to safeguard your home.
You can grant access for anyone you would like, such as a housesitter, a service technician, or a friend who arrives when you’re away. This service is also beneficial during urgent situations, particularly when you’re not around. To illustrate, if a water sensor goes off, your system can authorize event-driven access so a neighbor can turn off the water supply. Setting permissions is easy with the helpful app.
Boost Your Fort Myers Home’s Convenience And Security
ADT Trusted Neighbor is an excellent example of how ADT makes life easier and your Fort Myers home smarter and more secure. This service isn’t only for neighbors and guests, as you’ll benefit from the face recognition and auto-unlock capability when you’re wrangling little ones or bringing in loads of groceries. After you're inside, the door secures behind you automatically.
