Most of America s Fortune 500 companies and financial institutions are protected by ADT. The company also provides security to millions of residential customers across the US.
ADT offers four levels of deterrence:
1. The first is a yard sign that is meant to deter potential intruders by stating that this house is under the protection of ADT.
2. If a burglar misses the yard sign, he will see the warning decals on the windows.
3. The third deterrent is a loud siren that goes off whenever a burglar trips the alarm.
4. The fourth is 24-hour monitoring facility that monitors all activities at a customer s house and alerts the authorities whenever the alarm is triggered.
ADT takes great pride in its highly trained and safety-certified, monitoring staff. They are trained not only to take care of burglaries, but also for emergencies caused by flooding, fire/smoke accidents and carbon monoxide poisoning.
