Who hangs the keypad, and who answers after a High Street last call
This site is the Columbus order line. SafeStreets, an ADT Authorized Provider, designs the system for your house and installs it. ADT monitors it 24/7 from U.S. centers. We are not ADT corporate, and we are not a do-it-yourself kit.
A German Village brick house, a Short North two-story, a Dublin new-build, and a Grove City resale all get the same kind of watch. The quote changes with how many doors and windows you have — and whether a leftover keypad is already on the wall.
Call with a ZIP in Franklin County, Delaware, Licking, Fairfield, or the Union County towns we schedule. You will hear the monthly price, the $99 install on many plans, and whether your city wants an alarm permit.
The hours the house sits empty — that is the product
Weekdays empty a lot of Columbus houses after the I-70, I-71, or I-270 drive, a downtown shift, or a school drop-off. That is when people want someone watching the doors — not a camera they forget to check from the Scioto Mile.
Doors, windows, and the garage
Sensors go on the doors and windows you actually use, including the garage. If someone opens a door while the system is armed, ADT can call you and request help.
Boxes on the stoop
A doorbell camera is the usual add for German Village and Short North porches. Outdoor cameras if you want the driveway. Monitoring still works if you skip video.
Smoke, CO, and storm nights
Add a monitored smoke or carbon monoxide detector if you want it. The panel can still reach ADT if AEP Ohio or the Wi-Fi drops. That is why we mention backup on the quote.

Hear the price

SafeStreets installs
A technician installs and tests everything, then shows you the keypad and the app. We confirm the install window on the call.
ADT watches it 24/7
If an alarm trips, ADT can call you and request help based on the type of alert.
Streets and suburbs we actually schedule
Professional install across these Columbus neighborhoods and the Franklin, Delaware, Licking, Fairfield, and Union cities we name. If your city requires an alarm permit, we will name the office on the call.
City of Columbus paused the user-permit desk. The ZIP still decides the office.
Inside the city, Chapter 597 still sits on the books, but the License Section has suspended the Alarm User and False Alarm programs as of June 1, 2024 until new legislation is enacted. Homeowners currently have no city registration requirement and are not charged city false-alarm fees. Confirm with the License Section at (614) 645-8366. Dublin bills chargeable false alarms after two in six months. We name the office from your ZIP — we do not invent a dollar for a city we have not confirmed.
The Columbus Dispatch reported that Columbus finished 2025 with 84 homicides — about a 33 percent drop from 2024 and the lowest count since 2007. Those are citywide numbers, not a report card on your street. People order monitoring for the hours the house sits empty.
What people remember after install day
On time. Patient with the keypad. Did not leave until the app worked.
“The installer arrived on time, installed everything efficiently, and walked me through the control pad and app.”
“Nicholas worked late into the evening to get the job done. Patient and on time.”
“Moved into a new home on my own. Phone quote, install in a few hours, and I sleep better.”
