What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?
ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ tool modernizes the custom of giving a neighbor a key to your home. It removes the need for physical keys or access codes and allows you to manage who has access to your Fort Collins 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 probably have neighbors you trust to collect your mail, walk your dog, or feed your plants when you go out of town. Before, you would simply give them a key to your home. There’s a better way to do it now. Thanks to ADT's Trusted Neighbor Feature, you’ll never have to fret over misplaced keys or doors left unsecure.
What you’ll need is an ADT home security system, a Google Nest doorbell, a compatible smart lock, and the ADT+ app that allows everything to function in unison. Here’s how the service works:
- You grant access to a trusted person, like a close friend or neighbor, with the ADT+ app.
- Following that, you set permissions. You can provide neighbors with timed access, allowing them to enter and exit during a particular timeframe, or event-based admittance. For instance, if a package shows up, the system can unfasten the door to let them move it indoors once it authenticates them.
- Once you’ve set up access, your Google Nest Doorbell camera with familiar face functionality verifies your neighbor as they approach the door.
- Your ADT security system will pause the alarm and release the door lock when the approachee is verified as an authorized user.
- You are sent instant updates as your friend, neighbor, or family member enters and exits. The app also offers a complete history.
- When the trusted neighbor leaves, your smart door lock secures automatically to shield your home.
You are able to provide access for anyone you would like, such as a repair person, animal sitter, or a companion who shows up when you’re out. This tool is also helpful during urgent events, especially when you’re not around. For instance, if a water sensor trips, your system can grant event-driven access so someone can turn off the water supply. The intuitive app makes setting permissions easy.
