ADT Home Security Protects Your Most Precious Assets

Home security means different things to different people. For some, home security means protecting jewelry, watches, and appliances. But my ADT home alarm system protects a little more than that.

I do keep a small safety deposit box at the bank. My wife and I use it to store family heirlooms and our wills, among other things. That box is protected by security guards, vaults, and security systems.

I've come to consider our house as its own form of safety deposit box, where my family is safely “stored." Which makes me the security guard, if you will. Our home’s four walls are our protective shield from the world outside. But it's easier to enter a home’s four walls than the safety deposit vault in the bank. So how did I protect my home and its valuable contents? I called our local ADT authorized dealer, Protect Your Home, and installed an ADT home security system.

With an ADT Home Security System in our house, we now have alarm system sensors installed at every window and door, plus motion detectors throughout the house. The main alarm system keypad is connected 24/7 to ADT Security monitoring centers, where ADT's trained professionals will help us with any possible issue.

Here's the secret: The ADT alarm keypad has a unique code that only my family and I know. Say someone tries to break into our home: the alarm is activated and we immediately receive a call from the ADT Security monitoring center. If we don’t answer, or if the person who answers can't give the ADT Security professional our unique code, then they send help to our house -- fast.

The ADT home security system keeps our house safe from burglaries, but it also helps us detect fire and carbon monoxide emergencies. So no matter what kind of threat might come to our house, I know the contents -- my family and I -- are safe. It's great to know that ADT Security is watching out for us even when we're not there!
