ADT Security Pro - Home Security Blog

Living in San Ramon, we enjoy some of the most beautiful views in the East Bay. Between our top-rated schools and the quiet, manicured streets of our luxury subdivisions, it is easy to feel a sense of absolute safety. However, that very sense of security can sometimes lead to a "false sense of safety" that burglars are counting on.

Looking for the Best ADT Authorized Dealer in the Bay Area?

Don't Let Your Summer Vacation Be a Burglar's Big Break

With the California home insurance market becoming increasingly complex in 2026, homeowners are finding that insurance providers aren't just looking for a "good" security system—they are often requiring specific, professionally monitored protections to maintain coverage or lower soaring premiums.

We thank our customers who are part of the SecurityPro family. Almost half of our business comes as a result of referrals and we greatly appreciate all that you do to help us continue to be a Top Ten ADT Authorized Dealer. Because of the support of our cherished customers, we had our highest ranking ever as the 9th largest ADT Dealer nationwide. There are currently 196 ADT Authorized Dealers, so it is a true privilege and honor to be among the best. Prior to 2018, we had won the 10th spot twice... so we were thrilled to have our best ranking ever.

I recently attend ADT's Dealer convention and the most impressive part of the event was learning about the transformation ADT has made in customer service. As an ADT Dealer, over the years the customer service of ADT as a national company has been weak at times. Although the the monitoring service centers for alarm events have always been quick to respond, getting a customer service representative to help you for billing or a service call often took way to long. We had to tell our Security Pro customers to call us if the ADT Corporate is not giving them the service they deserve.

When looking into your options for the best, top-rated security company in California to protect your home or business there are multiple things to consider.

It's 3am, you awake to the sound of breaking glass followed by silence.

Even laying still, your heart is doing the Indy 500. Adrenaline stores up, you're ready for flight, you're ready for fight. The adrenaline actually sharpens your hearing.

Then there's nothing. For 10 minutes, there's nothing but a distant dog barking. You still can't get back to sleep, someone's waking up to a broken something, you hope it's not you.

You go secure the house, check the kids, peek outside and make sure everything is okay on your property. There's no rolling back over and drifting into sound sleep tonight. 

Neighborhood gossip alerts you that was John & Marie Poblanski's house.  Some creep broke the glass and grabbed some electronics and a marble elephant. Luckily no one was hurt... this time. It's time to get alarm system. 

You think, "Who do I call?" 

If ADT's stock price raising about 50% is any indication... it was AWESOME for ADT!!! Check out video from USA Today. 

ADT Press Release: February 16, 2016

It's exciting news that ADT was purchased by Apollo Global Management. Apollo buying ADT shows how valuable ADT is as the leader of the security and home automation business. For the time being it will be business as usual at ADT but by mid year of 2016 ADT will merge with Protection One that is owned by Apollo. This merger will continue to add to ADT being the superior choice of homeowners and businesses for monitored security, video surveillance and home automation.
