30 Years of Partnerships and Success
Build a security business you actually own — backed by the brand America already trusts.
30 Years of Partnering With Entrepreneurs
In 1994, ADT launched the Authorized Dealer Program with a simple idea: partner with independent business owners who want to build something of their own.
The model: ADT provides the brand, the training, and the monitoring infrastructure. You build the business — and you own it. No franchise fees. No royalties. You own your accounts and the recurring revenue they generate.
30 years later, that partnership model hasn't changed.
Same terms. Same structure. Same opportunity for entrepreneurs who want to build a real business, not just work a sales territory.
What This Is — And What It Isn't
You Own It
This is your business — your customers, your team, your profits. No franchise fees. No ongoing royalties. No corporate oversight telling you how to run your operation.
You Run It
You sell, install, and service security systems in your territory. This is a hands-on operating business, not a passive investment. You build the team. You do the work.
ADT Backs It
You get the brand trust of America's most recognized security company, plus training, 24/7 monitoring infrastructure, and weekly funding for completed installs.
Minimum Requirements
We're selective. Review these before applying.
$10,000 – $25,000 Working Capital
Your operating capital — not a fee to ADT.
U.S. Residency
Must be a legal U.S. resident with the right to operate a business.
Ability to Install or Hire Installers
You'll need technicians to mount equipment and program systems.
Licensing (State Dependent)
Most states require a security installer license. We'll guide you.
Ready to Start Within 90 Days
We're looking for operators ready to move — not casual browsers.
Leadership & Ownership Mindset
You're building a company. That means hiring, managing, and selling.
If you don't meet these requirements, this isn't the right fit. If you do — apply below.
