Security systems in Roncesvalles and Parkdale

Laneways and rear garages

Most streets here are backed by laneways lined with garages and fences, so the back of a house is often more exposed than the front. We put contacts on rear doors and garage doors, motion coverage on the back of the house, and a camera facing the laneway to record anyone coming and going. Bikes and tools kept in a laneway garage can be protected on their own zone.

Semis, rowhouses and multi-unit homes

Shared walls mean detectors have to be placed so they react to your home, not your neighbour's. Many houses are also split into a main unit with a basement or upper apartment. With partitions, each unit arms and disarms on its own code, and landlords can keep smoke and CO detection monitored for every tenant. If a previous owner left a system behind, an alarm takeover usually reuses it.

Shops and restaurants on Roncesvalles Avenue and Queen Street West

Main-street businesses need after-hours monitoring, glass-break detection on big front windows, panic buttons for staff and cameras on the till, entrance and rear lane. See commercial alarm installation for the full picture.
