Video monitoring
Video monitoring solutions offer real-time surveillance and digital recording for residential and commercial properties. Systems integrate with existing alarms, providing visual verification of incidents. We use high-resolution cameras and remote access capabilities, allowing clients to monitor premises via smartphones. Installation includes strategic placement for maximum coverage and compliance with privacy regulations.
Fire alarms
Fire alarm systems protect buildings with smoke and heat detection technology. Our installations meet Ontario fire code standards, with regular testing to ensure reliability. Commercial clients receive system integration with building management protocols, while residential systems offer interconnected detectors. Emergency alerts are routed to our 24-hour monitoring station for rapid response coordination.
Card access
Card access systems provide secure entry management for businesses and multi-resident buildings. Customizable permissions track user activity while preventing unauthorized entry. Solutions range from simple keycard readers to biometric systems, with integration possible for existing security infrastructure. Maintenance ensures long-term reliability of readers and control panels.
Environmental detection
Environmental detection systems monitor temperature, water levels, and hazardous conditions in properties like chalets. Low-temperature alerts prevent pipe freezing, while flood sensors detect water accumulation. Systems automatically trigger alarms and notify owners via SMS or email. Ideal for seasonal properties requiring remote condition monitoring during unoccupied periods.
