A building residents feel safe coming home to.
Break-ins in the parkade, strangers tailgating through the lobby, packages disappearing - security concerns reach council fast and owners expect a response. The challenge is that security quotes vary enormously in both approach and price for what sounds like the same protection.
Start from what’s been happening, and we’ll bring in security installers experienced in strata properties - with proposals that address your actual vulnerabilities, not just the most hardware.

Common questions
Security Systems questions councils ask
- What security measures work best for strata buildings?
- The reliable core is controlled entry - solid doors, managed fobs, and enclosed parkade gates - backed by cameras at entrances and choke points, and good lighting. Most incidents exploit propped doors, tailgating, or stale fob lists, so operational discipline matters as much as new hardware. A good installer assesses this honestly before quoting.
- Are strata corporations allowed to install security cameras?
- Yes, in common areas - but BC’s Personal Information Protection Act applies, so the strata should have a privacy policy covering purpose, camera placement, retention, and who can view footage. Cameras must not surveil into units or private spaces. Setting the policy alongside the installation keeps the council on solid ground.
- What does a strata security system cost?
- It ranges from a few thousand dollars for cameras at key entrances to much more for integrated access control, gates, and monitoring. Because scope drives price, councils get the most from comparing proposals built on the same requirements list - which is exactly how we structure the request.
