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!

WHY REMAI PROPERTY GROUP CHOSE ACTVGRD™

Proactive. Intelligent. Uncompromising.

The Future of Site Security is Here.

When developing premium real estate, the standard for security shouldn’t just be a physical presence. It should be intelligent, seamlessly integrated, and uncompromisingly reliable. Protecting valuable assets, equipment, and timelines shouldn't feel like a cost center - it should feel like an operational advantage.


For Remai Property Group, the status quo of reactive security simply wasn't enough. They needed a solution as forward-thinking as their developments.


Enter ACTVGRD.


The Challenge: Beyond the Perimeter

Construction sites are inherently vulnerable. At their newest development at 151 Pawlychenko Lane in Saskatoon, SK, Remai Property Group faced the same critical challenges every major developer faces.


Theft: High-value tools and essential materials are prime targets.


Vandalism: Senseless damage that causes costly delays and compromises quality.


Liability: Meeting strict Builders Risk Insurance requirements without inflating the budget.


Traditional security measures - like static cameras that only record the aftermath, or expensive physical guard patrols - leave gaps. Remai Property Group needed a system that didn't just watch, but actively protected.


The Solution: ACTVGRD™ by Reed Security

Deployed by the integration experts at Reed Security, ACTVGRD™ is more than just a camera on a pole. It is a comprehensive, live video monitoring service paired with a state-of-the-art mobile surveillance units.


It represents a paradigm shift in how we secure environments:


Always On: 24/7 continuous live monitoring ensures absolute, unbroken coverage.


Active Deterrence: It doesn't just record what happened; it anticipates and deters threats in real-time, stopping losses before they occur.


Intelligent Economics: ACTVGRD™ fully satisfies Builders Risk Insurance requirements at half the cost of traditional security guards. Better protection. Smarter investment.


The Remai Experience

When technology works this flawlessly, the results speak for themselves. Barry Remai, President of Remai Property Group, shares how ACTVGRD™ has fundamentally transformed their site operations.


"Our biggest risk is thieves who want to steal tools or materials. But even worse than that is the potential for vandalism. This was the first building we decided to go with video surveillance, and we went with Reed Security based on their reputation and the technology they brought... The key is stopping losses before they happen, not just detecting them. I think these live monitoring camera systems are the way of the future."

-Barry Remai, President, Remai Property Group

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


Meet Us at Security Canada Central


We’re exhibiting at Security Canada Central on October 22–23, 2025 at the Toronto Congress Centre. If you’re a dealer or thinking about becoming one, stop by Booth 129 and let’s talk about how we can help you scale faster and smarter.
