YWCA SASKATOON NAMED FIRST COMMUNITY CAMERAS RECIPIENT


At Reed Security, one of our core values is Care. We talk a lot about protecting the communities we serve, but recently, we decided to put our tools where our mouth is.


We are incredibly proud to announce the successful installation of our inaugural Community Cameras project, and the very first recipient is the truly deserving YWCA Saskatoon.


They are currently putting the finishing touches on a brand-new, 90-space childcare center located at 140 Wall Street. This facility is a much-needed extension of the amazing work they already do at their 25th Street location, and we wanted to ensure their new space was as safe and secure as possible.


Trading Our Desks for Toolbelts

To make this massive project happen, we did something unprecedented: we completely shut down the Reed Security office for the day.








We formed cross-departmental installation teams to get the work done together.


The Experts: Our experienced technicians stepped up as project team leads, guiding the process from start to finish.


The Rookies: Members of our sales, admin, and support teams traded their everyday tasks for non-traditional roles, pulling wire, mounting cameras, and learning the ropes.











It was a phenomenal day of hands-on learning, cross-training, and team building. Getting out from behind our screens to physically build a safer environment was the ultimate expression of how much we care about our community.











Peace of Mind for Local Families

For the YWCA, safety isn't just a feature; it's a necessity.


Carla Huntington, the VP of Development & Engagement at the YWCA, shared that security is top of mind for their organization. The families dropping off their children at the new 140 Wall Street location need to know their kids are in a safe, monitored environment. Providing that ultimate peace of mind is exactly what the Community Cameras project is designed to do.


Carla also mentioned how easy and pleasant the grant process was, noting that without community support and great security, they wouldn't be able to do the vital work they do.















Does Your Non-Profit Need Smarter Security?

We couldn’t be happier with how our first Community Cameras installation turned out, and we are already looking forward to the next one.

If you are part of a local non-profit organization that could benefit from a state-of-the-art security system, we want to hear from you!

1,179 NEW SUPERFANS AT REED SECURITY


In October 2024, we set a long-term goal at Reed Security:

10,000 SuperFans by December 2034.


This wasn’t about chasing fast growth.

It was about building something that lasts.


So we put the goal on the wall in our hallway. Hand drawn. Impossible to ignore. A daily reminder that customer experience is the work.


Real Progress. Real People.


In 2025, we’ve added 1,179 new SuperFans.


Most of them are right here in Saskatchewan, where we’ve built our reputation delivering smart home security and business security with a local-first mindset.


At the same time, we’re expanding across Canada through our Authorized Dealer network, bringing the same standards and expectations to new communities.


Growth matters. Consistency matters more.


How We Define a SuperFan


We don’t guess. We measure.


SuperFans are tracked through:


Google Reviews

  • 4.6 stars rating
  • #1 rated security company in Saskatchewan


Post-installation surveys

  • Feedback from smart home and business security installs


Client referrals

  • The highest compliment we can earn


Support Desk reviews

  • Because service doesn’t end after install day


Client testimonials

  • Real experiences, not marketing copy


If it’s not tied to real feedback, it doesn’t count.


Why Experience Comes First in Security


Security is personal. Whether it’s your home or your business, trust is everything.


Customer experience isn’t a department at Reed Security.

It’s the strategy.


We believe in Expert Local Service:


  • Local technicians and local support
  • Real people answering the phone
  • Same-day follow-up whenever possible
  • Owning issues and fixing them properly


That mindset is what allows us to serve Saskatchewan well and responsibly expand across Canada through dealers who share our standards.


Playing the Long Game


We’re proud of the 1,179 SuperFans added in 2025, but the real focus is the next one.


That’s how you build a company people recommend, whether they’re looking for smart home security in Saskatchewan or business security anywhere in Canada.


If you’re already a SuperFan, thank you.

If you’re not yet, we’re ready to earn it.




STRUGGLING WITH CASH FLOW? WE CAN FIX THAT


Most security dealers don’t fail because they can’t sell. They struggle because of cash flow.


It’s a common story: you work hard to sign new clients, install systems, and build recurring revenue. But then you wait. And wait. And wait. Sometimes months go by before you see the money you earned. Meanwhile, your expenses don’t wait - your team, vehicles, marketing, and operations still need to be paid.


That cash flow gap can stall growth, kill momentum, and limit your ability to scale.


We’ve solved this problem for our dealers.


Weekly Funding. Real Cash Flow.


The Reed dealer program gives you access to quick, predictable weekly funding, so you can keep growing without the financial bottleneck.


Here’s what that means in real terms:


  • No more waiting months to get paid
  • Consistent cash flow to cover operations and reinvest in growth
  • Freedom to scale without constantly worrying about receivables
  • A Trusted Canadian Partner


For 25 yearsReed Security has been building recurring revenue and delivering trusted security solutions across Western Canada. We know the challenges dealers face because we’ve lived them. That’s why our program is designed to help you grow your RMR fast, with a strong partner behind you.


When you join the Reed dealer program, you get more than funding. You get:


  • Proven marketing and lead generation strategies
  • Local installation and service support
  • A trusted Canadian brand your clients will recognize
  • A partner who understands the business inside and out

KEEP YOUR KIDS SAFE AFTER SCHOOL

Back-to-school season means new routines, new schedules, and plenty of moving parts. With kids heading back to class and parents juggling work, practices, and pick-ups, home security sometimes gets overlooked. But this is one of the most important times to make sure your family - and your home - are protected.



Empty Homes During the Day


With school back in session, homes sit empty for longer stretches. A smart alarm system with 24/7 monitoring keeps your property protected while everyone is away.





New Faces, New Access


Babysitters, tutors, and dog walkers often become part of the school-year routine. Smart locks let you grant or remove access instantly, no spare keys required.





After-School Safety Checks


Video doorbells and outdoor cameras give parents peace of mind. You can quickly confirm your kids made it home safely, no matter where you are.


Businesses Get Busy Too


It’s not just homes that need attention. Fall is a busy season for many businesses. Video surveillance and live remote monitoring can safeguard your property while you focus on running your company.


Pro Tip: Already have a system? September is a great time for a security tune-up. Test your alarms, check camera angles, update passwords, and walk your kids through how to use the system.


Call Reed Security today at 306.653.3200 for your free security review.

Start the school year with peace of mind knowing your family is protected.
