What Is The ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature?

ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ tool modernizes the custom of providing a neighbor your house key. It does away with the necessity of physical keys or passcodes and permits you to oversee who can go in your New Brunswick home and for what duration. Learn more about how to incorporate it with your ADT home security system and Google Nest doorbell camera. 

How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?

You likely have neighbors you trust to retrieve your mail, walk your dog, or tend to your plants when you leave home. Before, you would just give them a house key. You now have a better option. Thanks to the innovative ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature, you’ll never have to fret over doors left unlocked or lost keys. 

What you’ll need is an ADT security system, a Google Nest doorbell, a an automated 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. Next, you configure permissions. You can give neighbors timed access, allowing them to enter and exit during specific hours, or event-based entry. For instance, if a box is delivered, the system can release the door to allow your neighbor to bring it indoors once it validates them.
  3. Once you’ve set up access, your Google Nest Doorbell with familiar face capability recognizes your neighbor as they come near the door.
  4. Your ADT system will deactivate the alarm and deactivate the lock when the individual is authenticated as a permitted user.
  5. You are sent instant notifications as your family member, friend, or neighbor enters and exits. The app also supplies a complete log. 
  6. After the trusted neighbor departs, your smart door lock automatically secures to shield your home.

You may grant access for any person you wish, such as a maintenance worker, dog walker, or a friend who comes over when you’re out. This service is also beneficial during urgent events, particularly when you’re off site. For instance, if a water sensor trips, your system can authorize event-driven access so a neighbor can shut off the water. The user-friendly app makes configuring permissions simple. 

Make Your New Brunswick Home More Secure, Convenient, And Connected

ADT Trusted Neighbor is a terrific example of how ADT makes life easier and your New Brunswick home more adaptable and secure. This feature isn’t merely for neighbors and guests, as you’ll benefit from the facial recognition and auto-unlock operability when you’re wrangling little ones or hauling in loads of groceries. After you're inside, the door locks behind you automatically.
