Frequently Asked Questions
Can you service an existing alarm system at our place of business?
Absolutely! It’s common for businesses to already have established Tyco, ADT, or Telus business alarm systems in operation. Rest assured, we offer servicing for all commercial alarm systems, regardless of the initial installation company. Moreover, we provide upgrades for any outdated business alarm system, regardless of its age.
Similarly, older Chubb Systems may feature platforms that are no longer supported. However, we have the expertise to service these systems and reprogram the panels for monitoring in our central station. Additionally, we offer the option to upgrade the outdated alarm panels to a modern ICT Security System.
Can you monitor our existing Business Security System?
Certainly! We have the capability to monitor any Business Alarm System. Professional monitoring is essential for commercial security systems, enabling our monitoring station to promptly notify you of all alarm conditions. Alternatively, we initiate contact with police and emergency services and dispatch a mobile response as necessary.
Moreover, having your business’s alarm system monitored can lead to a reduction in your insurance premium. At Union Alarm, our monitoring rates start as low as $24.00 per month (plus GST).
Can you implement Access Control Doors?
Absolutely, Union Alarm offers the capability to incorporate integrated card access features into any commercial alarm system.

Implementing a Building Alarm System!
Educate Employees on Business Alarm Operations
As a business owner, you know that you’re doing your best to secure your building. But it’s also important to keep your employees in the loop—they spend just as much time at your facility.
As you add new security protocols and systems to your building, it’s important to keep your employees up to date about how they work. You may want to hold a meeting to go over the new systems. A few points you can bring up include:
- Protocol for setting the alarm
- Caution about sharing sensitive information with others
- Information about what to do if they have a security concern
Install a Monitored Business Alarm System
Small businesses may find it difficult to afford a commercial security system. But the benefits far outweigh the costs; you can deter criminal activity and monitor fire signals, both of which are paramount for protecting your building.
Invest in a monitored business alarm system, and you’ll be notified the moment a security threat or safety concern arises.
