What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?
ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ tool brings the age-old practice of giving a neighbor your house key into the digital age. It eliminates the necessity of actual keys or passcodes and allows you to manage who can go in your Muncie home and for what timeframe. Discover more about how you can implement it with your ADT home security system and Google Nest cameras.
How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?
You likely have neighbors you trust to feed your plants, get your mail, or exercise your dog when you go out of town. In the past, you would just provide them a key to your home. You now have a better option. Thanks to ADT's Trusted Neighbor Feature, you won’t have to be concerned about doors left unsecure or missing keys.
What you’ll need is an ADT home security system, a Google Nest video doorbell, a smart door lock, and the ADT+ app that lets everything function in unison. Here’s how it works:
- You grant access to a trusted individual, like a family member or neighbor, through the ADT+ app.
- Next, you define permissions. You can provide neighbors with timed access, letting them enter and depart during a designated timeframe, or event-based entry. For example, if a delivery is delivered, the system can unfasten the door to let your neighbor take it in once it verifies them.
- Once you’ve programmed access, your Google Nest Doorbell camera with familiar face detection recognizes your neighbor as they approach the door.
- Your ADT home security will disarm and release the door lock when the individual is verified as a permitted user.
- You get instant notifications as your family member, friend, or neighbor comes and goes. The app also supplies a complete history.
- Once the trusted neighbor exits, your smart door lock secures automatically to protect your home.
You may provide access for any person you would like, such as a repair person, animal sitter, or a companion who comes over when you’re not there. This feature is also useful during urgent events, particularly when you’re not around. For instance, if a water sensor trips, your system can authorize event-driven access so a neighbor can turn off the water. The handy app makes programming permissions straightforward.
