ADT has been watching over New Zealand homes and businesses for 50 years. Now, we’re bringing something truly game-changing to the table.
Meet ADT Guard – an innovative video monitoring solution that doesn’t just record crime, it prevents it.
Gone are the days of just reviewing footage after an incident. With ADT Guard, as soon as we see suspicious activity we take action. Rather than hoping a foot patrol catches crime, when your armed cameras detect activity, we’re there – checking in real time, verifying threats and intervening before damage or theft can occur. It’s a 24/7 security solution that’s safer, smarter and cost-effective.
"Security isn't just about watching footage after the fact – it’s about taking action when it matters. ADT Guard gives Kiwis proactive protection, with real-time monitoring and immediate intervention to stop incidents before they happen. It’s a smarter, faster way to keep homes and businesses safe," says ADT New Zealand General Manager, Alison Kingdon.
So, how does ADT Guard work?
ADT Guard is a real-time video monitoring solution that transforms standard security cameras into proactive surveillance systems.
- AI-powered detection: Smart technology identifies people and vehicles, eliminating false alarms so you’re only alerted when there’s a real threat.
- Live talk down: Our team can speak directly to intruders through cameras and speakers, stopping crime in its tracks.
- Proactive intervention: Instead of waiting for a break-in, we act before anything happens – because peace of mind isn’t reactive, it’s proactive.
A security system tailored for New Zealand
Security isn’t just about technology – it’s about people, places, and community. That’s why ADT Guard is built to protect Kiwi homes and businesses in real time, without unnecessary patrol costs or false alarms waking you in the middle of the night.
ADT has 162 local security experts across the country in 14 different locations, and our monitoring centre has the highest security grading possible. Every ADT team member holds a government-issued security licence. We understand what it means to keep Kiwi communities safe, because we live here too.
A smarter, more cost-effective security solution
Traditional security patrols can cost hundreds of dollars a week, with guards checking sites randomly and often unable to intervene until police arrive. And while monitored alarms are better than having no security at all, by the time your alarm is triggered and guards get to your premise, the culprits are often gone and the damage already done. You’re paying for a presence – but not necessarily protection.
With ADT Guard, your cameras become 24/7 security guards, with our professional monitoring team jumping into action as soon as a threat is detected. ADT Guard’s instant response capabilities reduces false alarms, eliminates costly patrol callouts, and provides direct police dispatch when needed – without the admin headaches.
Why settle for footage when you could have action?
ADT Guard transforms your cameras into a 24-hour security guard that detects and responds to threats in real time – taking care of your people and property when you can’t be there. With a monitored solution that talks back, ADT Guard is more than a security system – it’s total peace of mind.
By combining intelligent video surveillance with 24/7 monitoring, ADT Guard recognises threats as they happen – which means we can respond immediately and, if need be, contact the police within minutes.
When every second counts, wouldn’t you rather have security that reacts in the moment instead of reviewing footage after the fact?
Protect what matters, before something happens.
