Help & support
- I’ve signed my order agreement when will my system be installed?
One of our Installation Planners will call you to arrange the earliest convenient date for your installation.
- How do I register for ADT Smart Services?
You will not be required to register prior to your installation. But you will need to download the App as you will need this on the day of installation.
To download the App go to Apple’s App Store or Google Play and search for ADT Smart Services, then download the app.
Important information: Please do not NOT try to login or use the App until the ADT Smart Services hardware has been installed at your property. The Installation Engineer will advise you what to do during the installation process. You (or someone with access to the primary email account) will need to be present on the day of installation to register and connect the App.

- What is the Auto Alarm Handler
ADT Alarm Monitoring Centre uses industry-leading Automated Alarm Handler (AAH) technology to respond to most alarm activations, for more efficient alarm alert prioritisation and a faster response.
Upon an alarm activation the AAH contacts you or your nominated keyholders with an automated message, giving the option to either accept or decline the notification of the alarm’s activation.
It will also recognise if the call has been diverted to your answer machine leaving you a message advising you what action you need to take.- How can I put my fire system on test mode?
