Commercial Alarm System
Monitoring

When an alarm activates, someone needs to receive the signal and know what happens next. GPS Security provides professional monitoring, client notifications, remote access and activity reporting for commercial properties and worksites across Western Canada.

Service Overview

An Alarm Is Only The Beginning

An alarm system can signal a potential problem, but the signal still needs to reach people who can act on it.

GPS Security Group provides commercial alarm system monitoring services that connect your property's security system with trained monitoring staff, designated contacts and appropriate authorities.

When a signal is received, monitoring staff can notify the client and alert appropriate authorities when required. Clients can also receive email or text notifications, access supported systems remotely and review alarm activity reports.

This gives businesses clearer visibility into alarm activity without relying entirely on someone being present at the property. Available features depend on the installed system and monitoring configuration selected for the site.

Clearer Alarm Response

Know What Happens After An Alarm

Every property has different contacts, operating hours, risks and response requirements. A healthcare facility may need a different notification path than a construction site or retail location.

GPS Security keeps the monitoring process aligned with the instructions established for your site, so an alarm signal does not end with a siren or unattended notification. Designated contacts can be alerted, appropriate authorities can be notified when required and alarm activity can be documented for review.

Alarm monitoring manages the incoming signal and communication process. If your property also requires a security officer to attend, GPS Alarm Response can be arranged as a separate service. This distinction helps you understand exactly what your monitoring plan covers before service begins.
