A comprehensive home security system usually includes:

• ADT Base: The heart of your security system, the Base communicates with all connected devices and the monitoring teams, giving you seamless control and peace of mind
  
• Door and Window Sensors: These sensors are the smart, front-line detection for some of your home’s most vulnerable entry points, alerting you when doors or windows are opened unexpectedly
• Motion Detectors: To monitor open areas like rooms and hallways, these sensors detect movement within their range, adding an extra layer of protection to your home's living spaces
• Glass Break Sensors: Auditory sensors that recognize the sound or vibration of breaking glass, such as a window.
• Security Cameras: The eyes and ears of any modern home security system, surveillance cameras are critical for monitoring activity in or outside of your home, recording events, and alerting you to visitors, deliveries, or anything unexpected
  
• Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors: To supplement your primary smoke detectors, these 'life safety alarms' detect fire or dangerous gases, and when connected to ADT security monitoring, our security professionals can even contact emergency services on your behalf when these alarms detect potential problems
• Keypad or Key Fob: Easy-to-use interfaces for easily arming or disarming your ADT security system
  
• Yard Signs and Window Stickers: Deter crime by letting would-be bad actors know your home is protected by an ADT security system and professional monitoring.

The ADT Base and the security kit's sensors include features that help ensure operation for several hours during a power outage. If your Wi-Fi goes down or there’s a power outage, Google Nest cameras and doorbells will automatically store up to one hour of recorded events in its local memory. You will also receive notifications upon loss and restoration. When things are up and running again, you’ll be able to see exactly what happened. And, the ADT Base features cellular backup to ensure communication with ADT Monitoring Centers are not interrupted during power outages — no landline needed!

Connecting these life safety sensors with your ADT security system helps to enhance the intelligent capabilities of the smart home system. If a fire or dangerous gas is detected, the smoke detectors and fire alarms will alert you by sound, light, voice and ADT+ app notification — even if you're away. With an ADT monitoring subscription, these life safety products alert our professional teams quickly on your behalf, so we can get first responders to your home fast.

Life Safety detectors are a group of sensors, alarms, and alert devices that stand vigilant to monitor your home for dangerous gases, smoke, excess heat or fires, and water damage. When paired with ADT's smart home security systems and professional monitoring, these detectors provide a lifeline to help in the event of an emergency — whether you're home or away.
