Security camera systems for Fort McMurray buildings
From MacKenzie Industrial Park and TaigaNova to yards along Highway 63, many Fort McMurray sites are large, spread out and far from the people who manage them. We design and install camera systems you can watch and search from anywhere.
Deep cold, short winter days and sites with little power or internet shape every design here. We choose cold-rated cameras that see well in low light, and use solar-powered and cellular cameras where running power and network isn’t practical.
Serving Fort McMurray and the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo as part of our Alberta and BC service area, supported from our Edmonton head office.
