Always protecting.
Always innovating.
Always there.

At ADT we’ve been looking after the things our customers hold dear since 1874. Home security is what we do best because it’s all we’ve ever done.

There will always be newer alarm companies than ADT (we’d hope so after nearly 150 years). And, yes, there may be cheaper alarm companies, too.

But when it comes to home security, we still don’t think anyone offers better value.

Here’s why.

Monitoring & Maintenance

An ADT alarm never goes unanswered. As soon as our UK monitoring centre receives a confirmed activation we take action. And with round the clock technical support and daily checks from the ADT Remote Operating Centre, we can ensure your system is always working and even fix up to 80% of issues remotely – it’s support that never sleeps.

All-inclusive service

Only ADT offers an all-inclusive service and maintenance plan for every home security package. So, while other systems may appear cheaper, the cost of keeping your alarm in peak condition can soon add up.

Expert installation

DIY alarm systems often rely on the customer to install the hardware, which is all OK until it’s not OK – and you don’t want it to fail when you need it most. At ADT we rely on our team of 4,000 professional engineers, who are often personally praised on Trustpilot. They make sure everything’s set up perfectly.

Tailor-made for you

Off-the-shelf security just isn’t for us. That’s why every one of our security packages is designed around you and your home. From systems that recognise your pets to our cutting edge ADT Smart Services app, for us security is always personal.
