Intrusion & Burglar Alarm Systems in Surrey

Surrey businesses use Fortega for intrusion & burglar alarm systems because one team owns the design, the installation, the monitoring and the service afterwards. Systems are specified for British Columbia conditions and documented for the province's licensing and privacy requirements.

The Surrey context

One of BC's fastest-growing cities, with industrial parks, commercial corridors and large residential developments requiring scalable multi-site coverage.

Port logistics, forestry, technology campuses, hospitality and dense multi-residential towers shape most BC security programs.

Coastal humidity, heavy rainfall and salt air make weather-sealed housings, corrosion-resistant hardware and drainage-aware mounting essential.

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 British Columbia

British Columbia licenses security consultants, guards and alarm installers under the Security Services Act, and Fortega works within those licence classes on BC projects.

BC has its own Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA), so surveillance notice, access requests and retention rules are governed provincially rather than by 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.
