Call for help with the panic button
Alert ADT during an emergency without using a phone
Help is always within reach
Home emergencies can happen fast, and they usually come when you least expect them. If the unexpected ever strikes at your home, you may not always be able to get to a phone to contact emergency services.
With an ADT monitored panic button, however, you’ll be able to call for help quickly from anywhere in your home. Just press the button, and your ADT monitored home security system will contact a 24-hour ADT monitoring center to get you help when you need it.
2 ways to call for help
In the event of an emergency, it helps to have options. That’s why your ADT monitored panic button isn’t a stand-alone piece of equipment. Rather, it’s a feature you’ll find on two different pieces of ADT monitored home security equipment. That way, you’ll be able to call for help no matter where you are in your home.
