ADT’s Trusted Neighbor™ feature modernizes the practice of giving a neighbor a key to your home. It eliminates the necessity of physical keys or keypad codes and lets you control who can go in your Bellingham home and for what timeframe. 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 have neighbors you trust to watch your pets, get your mail, or water your plants when you go out of town. Before, you would simply provide them a house key. There’s a better way to do it now. Thanks to ADT's Trusted Neighbor Feature, you no longer have to worry about doors left unlocked or misplaced keys. 

All you need is an ADT security system, a Google Nest doorbell camera, a smart door lock, and the ADT+ app that allows everything to function in unison. Here’s how the service works: 

1. You assign access to a trusted individual, like a neighbor or close friend, with the ADT+ app.
2. Then, you configure permissions. You can assign neighbors timed access, letting them come and go during a designated timeframe, or event-based admittance. For example, if a package shows up, the system can unlock the door to let them move it in once it verifies them.
3. When you’ve configured access, your Google Nest Doorbell with familiar face functionality recognizes your neighbor as they proceed toward the door.
4. Your ADT system will disarm and release the door lock when the person is authenticated as an approved visitor.
5. You get instant notifications as your neighbor enters and exits. The app also supplies a complete history. 
6. After the trusted neighbor departs, your smart door lock secures automatically to protect your home.

You may authorize access for any person you want, such as a service technician, dog walker, or a companion who arrives when you’re away. This tool is also helpful during urgent events, particularly when you’re not around. To illustrate, if a water sensor triggers, your system can authorize event-driven access so a neighbor can turn off the water. The intuitive app makes configuring permissions easy.
