Home security in Victoria

Home security in Victoria **No contract.* 0% financing.**

Q: Do you install in Victoria?

Yes. We install across Victoria, including James Bay, Fairfield, Fernwood, Vic West, and the Oak Bay edge. Greater Victoria cities are nearby.

Q: Do I have to sign a contract?

Not if you buy the system outright. Pay in full and you can self-monitor or use our professional monitoring with no term and no cancellation fee. The only time you are under a contract is if you take a promotional discount.

Q: Do I own the equipment?

Yes. Yours from day one. We do not take it back if you stop monitoring.

Q: I'm switching from Telus or ADT. Is that hard?

We remove the old panel on the same visit and leave you armed. Pay in full and there is no lock-in after that.

Q: Will this lower my home insurance?

Many BC insurers credit 5–15% for a professionally monitored, ULC-listed system. DIY sirens usually do not qualify. We can send a monitoring certificate — ask your broker.

Q: Does Victoria charge for false alarms?

Victoria requires written monitoring and contact details within 72 hours of install. Fees start on the fourth false alarm in a year ($200 each after that). Verified ULC monitoring cuts those. Many insurers also credit 5–15% — we issue a certificate.

Grade 2 cameras and 24/7 monitoring. You own the gear from day one.

how we protect

Protection against break-ins, smoke, and water leaks.

See how the system helps you respond. Features depend on the devices you choose. Monitoring-centre response requires a professional monitoring subscription.

Armed 1/5

01 Armed

Arm your system before you leave.

Use the keypad to arm your system. The exit delay gives you time to leave before the alarm is active.

Arm Arm the system from your keypad.
Leave Close the door before the exit delay ends.
Confirm Check that the keypad shows the system is armed.

02 Outdoor

See who is at your front door.

A compatible doorbell camera lets you check visitors and deliveries from your phone and speak to someone at the door.

Detect The doorbell camera detects activity near your entrance.
Check Open the app to view the camera.
Speak Use two-way talk to speak to a visitor.

03 Break-in

Get alerted to a possible break-in.

When your system is armed, compatible door, glass-break, and motion sensors can trigger an alarm. With professional monitoring, the monitoring centre also receives the alarm.

Detect An installed sensor triggers an alarm.
Alert Your system sends an alert and can sound the siren.
Respond With professional monitoring, the team follows the alarm response process.

04 Smoke & CO

Get an alert when smoke or CO is detected.

Compatible smoke and carbon monoxide detectors can alert you even when the security system is disarmed. With professional monitoring, the monitoring centre also receives the alarm.

Detect An installed smoke or CO detector senses a hazard.
Alert The detector sounds and the system sends an alert.
Respond With professional monitoring, the team follows the emergency response process.

05 Water & climate

Find out when a water leak starts.

Place a leak sensor near a water heater, washing machine, or sink. It sends an alert when water reaches the sensor, so you can check the problem.

Detect Water reaches the installed leak sensor.
Alert The app identifies which sensor detected water.
Act Check the leak or contact someone who can help.

The difference

Keep using your app if you stop professional monitoring.

Check compatible cameras, receive sensor alerts, and control your system from the app without a professional monitoring subscription. You become responsible for responding to alerts.

Monitor alerts yourself

Receive app alerts and decide what action to take.

Check your cameras

Use live view and two-way talk on compatible devices.

Keep sensor alerts

Get notifications from the sensors installed in your home.

Keep your routines

Continue using the automations set up for your devices.

Stopping professional monitoring stops monitoring-centre response. Camera recordings depend on your equipment and storage setup. Any remaining equipment payments and promotional commitments still apply.
