Alarm system installation in Toronto
A good Toronto alarm system is designed around the building: a century semi with a laneway garage needs a different plan from a condo suite or a Queen Street storefront. Knightwatch designs each system on site and installs it with our own technicians.
Designing for older Toronto homes
Pre-war houses in neighbourhoods like Leaside, the Annex, the Beaches and Roncesvalles have plaster walls, deep window frames and basement entrances. We use wireless devices where running wire would damage finishes, and protect the easy-to-miss entry points: rear laneway doors, basement walk-ups, side doors and detached garages.
Renovations and new builds
If you’re renovating or rebuilding, the walls are open, which is the best time to run wire. Our wiring team pre-wires contacts, keypads, cameras and network cable so the finished system is hardwired and tidy. Builders and contractors can see pre-wire for builders.
Storefronts and offices
For main-street businesses we focus on large front windows (glass-break detection), rear doors onto laneways, and after-hours monitoring with guard dispatch. Read more about commercial alarm installation.

Frequently asked questions
How long does an alarm installation take in a Toronto house?
Most homes are done in a day, depending on the number of devices and whether wiring is involved. We confirm the timing when we quote.
