If you’ve heard about ADT as the
forefront of security and monitoring technology for over 125 years, then you
should know as well that their security systems are highly sophisticated, and
that ADT offer unparalleled service and their superior ADT alarm systems are
what you've come to expect.
But what you might not know is the
humble origins of ADT as a Telegraph Messenger Service. So how would an ADT
alarm system fit in the picture? Read on and follow the path the ADT alarm system took in
history
Though the American District
Telegraph (ADT) is formed through the affiliation of 57 district telegraph
delivery companies in around 1874, it is with the advent of advanced Call Boxes
and multi-signal electric protection system in the early 1890s that ADT became
a preeminent security protection company. Before, ADT function much as their
name implies, telegraph service. These call boxes (electric signal devices)
allow interactive communication between customers and ADT. And as an outcrop of
the business and to further the development of the call boxes innovation, ADT
started providing security and protection services to a varied clientele.
Therefore, you can safely assume that the parent of ADT alarm system would be the
call boxes.

These multi-signal Call Boxes
allowed watchmen at businesses to do more than just signal for police or fire
department assistance, they also allow watchmen to send a specific signal to
the ADT office, at designated times, to let the monitoring office know that all
was well. And if a district office didn't receive its scheduled signal, ADT
protocol was always to assume something is amiss, and help was promptly
dispatched.
It was in 1910 to 1930, under the
leadership of AT&T that ADT began to really shed its telegraph messenger
service roots to concentrate fully on signal, security and protection service.
In a very short time, ADT became synonymous with emergency call systems. It was
also this time when the respected line of ADT alarm systems went out of
production.

When war broke out, the
resulting domestic manpower shortage drove the demand for better ADT alarm
systems that would not only detect problems, but signal an alarm automatically.

In essence, a cry for an automated ADT alarm
system was made. Because ADT provided a unique integration of systems and
services, it was a logical step for the company to create these automatic
systems. As a result, automated ADT alarm systems such ass the Teletherm
automatic fire detections system, the Telewave automatic intrusion system surfaced.
