How ADT Installation Works in Richmond
Call, hear the price, SafeStreets installs, and ADT monitors 24/7. We confirm the earliest install window from your ZIP.
Call (804) 256-0048
A specialist asks your ZIP, house vs condo vs extra unit, 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 The Fan bungalow is often a couple of hours.
ADT takes over
From that point the system is monitored 24/7 — including when Dominion Energy or the Wi-Fi drops. You arm it when you leave.
What to have on the call
- ZIP and city — Richmond, Midlothian, Short Pump, Glen Allen, Chester
- House, condo, extra unit, larger lot, or rental
- Whether you own the home (promotional offers are for homeowners)
- Cameras yes or no
- A photo of any leftover keypad
Install day on a Richmond 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 The Fan or Midtown bungalow is often a couple of hours. A larger Midlothian lot or an Church Hill address with extra glass can take longer. When the truck leaves, ADT is already watching.
We confirm the earliest install window on the call. Coverage is Richmond plus the Henrico, Chesterfield, and Hanover towns we list. Confirm every address.
After the truck leaves — know which desk your ZIP uses
Put a local contact on the call list if the house sits empty after drop-off. Inside the City of Richmond, Chapter 10 Article III requires a Richmond False Alarm Reduction Program permit: $25 registration — confirm (877) 893-5267. Glen Allen bills $50 after three false alarms in a calendar year. Other cities are named from the ZIP — we do not invent a dollar amount. Teach the household so a delivery is not a false alarm. Arm it when you leave for work.
