ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ service brings the age-old practice of supplying a neighbor a key to your house into the modern age. It eliminates the requirement for physical keys or keypad codes and permits you to oversee who can access your Youngstown home and for how long. Find out more about how to incorporate it with your ADT home security system and Google Nest cameras. 

How Does ADT Trusted Neighbor Work?

You probably have neighbors you trust to tend to your plants, get your mail, or exercise your dog when you leave home. Before, you would just give them a key to your home. There’s now a better way. Thanks to ADT's Trusted Neighbor Feature, you no longer have to fret over missing keys or doors left open. 

All you need is an ADT home security system, a Google Nest video doorbell, a compatible smart lock, and the ADT+ app that permits everything to function in unison. Here’s how to set it up: 

1. You assign access to a trusted person, like a neighbor or relative, via the ADT+ app.
2. Next, you configure permissions. You can provide neighbors with timed access, allowing them to come and go during specific hours, or event-based access. For instance, if a package shows up, the system can unlock the door to let them bring it inside once it validates them.
3. When you’ve programmed access, your Google Nest Doorbell camera utilizes familiar face detection to verify your neighbor when they proceed toward the door.
4. Your ADT system will disarm and deactivate the lock when the individual is authenticated as an authorized visitor.
5. You receive immediate alerts as your friend, neighbor, or family member comes and goes. The app also provides a complete log. 
6. Once the trusted neighbor leaves, your smart door lock secures automatically to safeguard your home.

You can provide access for any individual you want, such as a repair person, animal sitter, or a companion who comes over when you’re out. This feature is also beneficial during emergencies, especially when you’re not around. For instance, if a water sensor goes off, your system can authorize event-driven access so a neighbor can switch off the water supply. The user-friendly app makes configuring permissions easy.
