A specialist asks your ZIP, house vs condo, cameras yes or no, and whether a leftover keypad is on the wall. Photograph it first.

Monthly price, $99 install on many plans, 36-month agreement, the free alarm-system promo if it applies, and which city desk your ZIP uses.
Install day
A SafeStreets technician installs and tests everything, then shows you the keypad and the app. A Hyde Park two-story is often a couple of hours.
ADT takes over
From that point the system is monitored 24/7 — including when Duke Energy or the Wi-Fi drops. You arm it when you leave.
What to have on the 513 call
- ZIP and city — Cincinnati, Mason, West Chester, Covington, Newport, Florence
- House vs condo — occupancy, not a style name
- Whether you own the home (promotional offers are for homeowners)
- Cameras yes or no
- A photo of any leftover keypad
Install day on a hillside house
The technician walks the house, confirms the openings you quoted, installs sensors, tests each one, and walks you through arm, disarm, and the app. A Hyde Park or Oakley two-story is often a couple of hours. A larger Mason lot or an Indian Hill address with a long driveway can take longer. When the truck leaves, ADT is already watching.
Same-day or next-day install is often available in the OH – Cincinnati territory (45 ZIPs). Always confirm with the ZIP.
After the truck leaves — register if your ZIP requires it
Put a local contact on the call list if the house sits empty after drop-off. Ask which permit desk applies — City of Cincinnati Chapter 807 FARU registration (still required; the old biennial user-registration fee stopped March 15, 2022, and we do not invent a current annual permit dollar amount; FARU (513) 352-1272); unincorporated townships under Ohio Revised Code 505.511; independent Ohio cities and Northern Kentucky desks named from the ZIP. Teach the household so a delivery is not a false alarm. Arm it when you leave for work.
