Security built for Acheson
The Acheson Industrial Area in Parkland County, just west of Edmonton along Highway 16 and Highway 60, is almost all industry: warehouses and distribution centres, manufacturing and fabrication, trucking and equipment yards, and energy-service companies.
Sites here are big, fenced and busy by day, then empty at night. We focus on perimeter cameras, gates, docks and alarms that tell you when something real is happening, and on keeping track of the drivers and contractors who come and go.
Supported from our Edmonton head office.
What Acheson buildings need
The local conditions we plan every Acheson system around.
Big, fenced sites
Long fence lines that need cameras with detection, and monitored fence sensors where theft is a problem.
Docks and trucks
Dock door alarms, dock cameras and gate access for carriers and drivers.
Many visitors
Drivers, couriers and contractors who need controlled, recorded entry at the gate and the front door.
Empty nights and weekends
Alarms and live monitoring, so someone notices when a site is entered after hours.

Planning an Acheson site
What we look at on a site walk in the Acheson Industrial Area.
The gate is the front door
Most visitors arrive by truck. A gate with an intercom, a plate camera and access by driver keeps a record of every vehicle.
Docks and overhead doors
Door contacts on overhead and dock doors, and cameras on every dock, show what left the building and when.
Fences that report
Zone-based fence sensors and electric deterrent fences, linked to cameras and your alarm, warn people off before they reach the yard. See monitored fences.
Stuck with a system nobody will fix?
We take over, repair and fully support systems installed by other companies, with new passwords and full documentation.
Brands we install in Acheson
Brands we install for Acheson warehouses, shops and yards, fully supported end to end.
Remote video monitoring in Acheson
Acheson yards and warehouses are quiet at night. Our monitoring partner can watch your cameras 24/7, warn people off through speakers and call for help when it’s real. How remote video monitoring works.
- Gates, docks and fence lines checked live
- Talk-down speakers that warn people off
- Police or your contact called when it’s real, with the video
- Added to new cameras, or to existing cameras we’ve checked
