What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?

ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ service brings the age-old practice of giving a neighbor a key to your house into the digital age. It eliminates the necessity of actual keys or keypad codes and permits you to oversee who can access your Montgomery home and for how long. Find out more about how it works with your ADT home security system and Google Nest doorbell camera. 

How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?

You likely have neighbors you trust to water your plants, get your mail, or take your dog out when you go out of town. Before, you would just provide them a house key. There’s a better way to do it now. Thanks to the innovative ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature, you won’t have to fret over doors left unsecure or lost keys. 

All you need is an ADT home security system, a Google Nest doorbell, a smart door lock, and the ADT+ app that brings it all together. Here’s how to set it up: 

  1. You grant access to a trusted person, like a close friend or neighbor, via the ADT+ app.
  2. Following that, you define permissions. You can provide neighbors with timed access, letting them enter and depart during a particular timeframe, or event-based access. For example, if a delivery arrives, the system can release the door to let them take it in once it verifies them.
  3. After you’ve set up access, your Google Nest Doorbell camera with familiar face capability verifies your neighbor as they come near the door.
  4. Your ADT system will disarm and deactivate the lock when the approachee is confirmed as a permitted user.
  5. You receive real-time alerts as your family member, friend, or neighbor enters and departs. The app also offers a complete log. 
  6. Once the trusted neighbor exits, your smart door lock secures automatically to shield your home.

You may authorize access for any individual you would like, such as a maintenance worker, animal sitter, or a friend who shows up when you’re out. This tool is also useful during urgent events, especially when you’re not around. To illustrate, if a water sensor trips, your system can authorize event-driven access so someone can switch off the water supply. The intuitive app makes setting permissions easy. 

Boost Your Montgomery Home’s Convenience And Security

ADT Trusted Neighbor is a perfect example of how ADT makes life easier and your Montgomery home more versatile and secure. This tool isn’t merely for neighbors and guests, as you’ll benefit from the face recognition and auto-unlock capability when you have your hands full of little ones or packages. When you're inside, the door secures behind you automatically.
