ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ tool modernizes the custom of giving a neighbor a key to your house. It removes the need for physical keys or access codes and allows you to control who can go in your Minneapolis home and for how long. Discover 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 walk your dog, collect your mail, or hydrate your plants when you go out of town. Typically, you would simply give them a key to your house. There’s a better way to do it now. Because of the innovative ADT Trusted Neighbor Feature, you won’t have to worry about lost keys or doors left unsecure. 

All you need is an ADT security system, a Google Nest doorbell, a smart door lock, and the ADT+ app that lets everything function as one. Here’s how to set it up: 

1. You grant access to a trusted person, like a neighbor or family member, via the ADT+ app.
2. Following that, you set permissions. You can give neighbors timed access, letting them come and go during a designated timeframe, or event-based entry. For instance, if a box arrives, the system can release the door to let them bring it in once it authenticates them.
3. When you’ve configured access, your Google Nest Doorbell with familiar face functionality verifies your neighbor when they come near the door.
4. Your ADT security system will pause the alarm and unlock the door when the person is authenticated as a permitted guest.
5. You receive instant notifications as your friend, neighbor, or family member enters and departs. The app also offers a detailed log. 
6. After the trusted neighbor leaves, your smart door lock automatically secures to safeguard your home.

You are able to provide access for any person you want, such as a pet sitter, a service technician, or a companion who comes over when you’re out. This service is also useful during urgent events, specifically when you’re away. For instance, if a water sensor goes off, your system can grant event-driven access so a neighbor can shut off the water supply. The user-friendly app makes programming permissions straightforward. 

Make Your Minneapolis Home More Secure, Convenient, And Connected

ADT Trusted Neighbor is a terrific example of how ADT makes your Minneapolis home more connected and secure while simplifying your daily life. This service isn’t merely for neighbors and relatives, as you’ll appreciate the face recognition and auto-unlock capability when you’re carrying kids or deliveries. After you're inside, the door automatically secures behind you.
