Many people often wonder, ‘can another company monitor my ADT alarm system?’. The short answer is yes.
However there are instances when the answer can be no. For example, if you are under a contract with ADT you would not be able to have another company monitor your ADT alarm system. But once you have satisfied the terms of that contract you can then switch alarm monitoring companies. Another example would be if you ‘leased’ your ADT alarm system from them, in which case you are ‘married’ to them and you cannot have another company monitor your ADT alarm system.
If you have an ADT alarm system and are not locked into monitoring with them, reach out to one of the many alarm companies on Long Island to see if they offer monitoring services that are competitively priced. Most likely, you will find a company that can use your existing ADT equipment and wiring. Most security companies can reprogram your control panel to work with their own monitoring center, even if ADT has locked the panel.
You may also be interested in upgrading the existing equipment, or perhaps exploring the latest technological advancements available in home security. Also available are smart phone apps that include text message notifications such as when the power in your home fails, or when your back up battery is low in addition to many other optional notifications.
So if you are paying too much for monitoring with ADT right now, contact some local security alarm companies to not only see if they will monitor your existing ADT equipment, but also see what deals they have for switching over from ADT.
