Tyco who has officially owned ADT since 1997 has officially split into 3 independent companies since this past October. These new independently traded companies include,
ADT Security Services which is the absolute largest industry provider of security system installation and monitoring services for the residential and small business markets in the United States; Tyco, which will be made up of the company's fire and security businesses which include Tyco Security Products and, Pentair Ltd., the company's new flow control business which was created out of a merger between Pentair Inc. and Tyco Flow Controls.
History of ADT Security Services
In 1867 the stock ticker is invented by Mr. Edward Calahan and forms the Gold and Stock Telegraph Company. This makes it possible for New York brokerage firms to get up-to-the-moment information from the stock exchange floor itself. The Gold and Stock Telegraph Company also created a system to send information directly to the stock exchange.
In the year 1870 the unthinkable happens when the president of the Telegraph Company wakes up and finds an intruder breaking into his home. As with most of us when a break in happens and then we react to it. Mr. Calahan creates a telegraph-based alert system for Andrews' home and eventually connects 50 of Andrews' neighbors to a central monitoring station where all the alert boxes are monitored. This security system becomes the first of it's kind and quickly becomes a hit throughout New York City.
In the year 1874 Mr.Calahan creates the American District Telegraph (ADT) Company, which consolidates over 50 local alarm companies in the New York area.
Into the 1800's ADT expands its messenger and alarm services to include police and fire dispatching, and becomes the first central alarm monitoring station in America.This was the beginning of one the most requested services in all of America.
ADT is America's #1 Name in Home Security
No other alarm system provider compares to ADT in terms of client base and customer service. ADT stands alone as the only security system provider which has multiple central monitoring stations across the country. This is an amazing feature that goes unnoticed as a real benefit many times. Most people think it's not a benefit or feature that really concerns them but nothing could be further from the truth. The fact that ADT Security has multiple central stations is very important in the event a natural disaster occurs. Here in Miami, Fl hurricanes are a regular occurrence and if and when they occur your ADT monitoring service will not be interrupted. Aside from this benefit that only ADT offers there are others that make ADT Security stand alone as the best alarm system provider. Only ADT offers a 6 month money back guarantee to assure your 100 percent satisfaction. If you have a service issue with your newly installed ADT system you can be assured the problem will be corrected.
ADT Corp Becomes Publicly Traded
As of the October 2012 split between Tyco International and ADT Corp, ADT has become an independent publicly traded company. WIth over 6 million customers worldwide, ADT is no doubt going to continue making strides in the security system market.
"The launch of ADT as an independent company is a great moment for our employees, and it marks an exciting milestone in our proud history," says ADT CEO Naren Gursahaney. "ADT leads the security industry because of our commitment to customer service, focus on innovation and continued investment in our infrastructure and our people. But what really differentiates us is that we never forget what we do for a living - we help save lives."
