Alarm systems and cameras in East York and Leaside

Bungalows and storey-and-a-half homes

Much of East York is post-war bungalows and one-and-a-half-storey houses on narrow lots, often with side entrances and basement suites. Separate arming for a basement unit, contacts on side doors and a camera covering the driveway are common recommendations.

Leaside

Leaside's renovated and rebuilt detached homes have more glass, walk-outs and rear garages off laneways. Our Leaside home security guide covers the entry points we see most.

Apartments and local retail

Apartment residents benefit from simple, monitored systems and video doorbells where building rules allow. Shops and offices along the area's commercial strips get storefront glass-break detection and camera coverage of entrances and rear doors.
