Intrusion & Burglar Alarm Systems in Calgary

Looking for intrusion & burglar alarm systems in Calgary? Fortega scopes the system on site, installs it with licensed technicians, and runs it from a 24/7 Canadian monitoring centre — with Alberta Justice (Security Services and Investigators Act) licensing and Alberta privacy obligations handled as part of the project.

What shapes security design in Calgary

A corporate and energy centre with head-office towers, industrial parks and large logistics facilities under Alberta's PIPA privacy regime.

Alberta sites skew toward energy, logistics, agri-food processing and large-format retail, where perimeter coverage, remote yards and lone-worker safety drive the design.

Prairie temperature swings and winter extremes mean outdoor cameras, readers and enclosures are specified for cold-weather performance and condensation control.

Modern commercial alarm systems do more than detect motion. Fortega designs layered detection — perimeter contacts, interior motion, glass-break, panic and environmental sensors — wired into a monitoring platform that uses video verification before dispatch.

Compliance

Licensing and privacy in Alberta

Security guard and alarm work in Alberta is licensed under the Security Services and Investigators Act, and Fortega's guard and patrol personnel operate under that framework.

Commercial video and access-control records in Alberta fall under the provincial Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA), which sets its own notice and retention expectations rather than PIPEDA.

  • Fewer false alarms — fewer fines, less wasted police response.
  • Faster real-incident verification with video evidence on every alarm.
  • Coverage of water, temperature and power events that insurers care about.
  • A single accountable partner for the panel, the wiring and the monitoring.
