ABOUT US
Calgary's Commercial Security Integrator
Kraken Security is a Calgary-based electronic security systems company specializing exclusively in commercial and industrial projects. We supply, install, program, and service CCTV systems, access control, intrusion alarms, video intercoms, structured cabling, and cloud network monitoring for businesses that need security infrastructure they can depend on every single day.
Here’s something most property managers and business owners don’t realize: there is currently no licensing requirement to perform electronic security system installation in Alberta. That means anyone with a van and a drill can call themselves a security technician, regardless of training, experience, or competence. It’s one of the reasons this industry has a reputation for inconsistent work, missed callbacks, and systems that fail right when they’re needed most.
Kraken Security takes a different approach. Every technician who steps onto a job site is trained and vetted before they’re allowed to touch a client’s system. We treat the absence of mandatory licensing as a reason to hold ourselves to a higher internal standard, not an excuse to cut corners.

WHY CHOOSE US
Why Calgary Businesses Choose Kraken Security
We Always Answer the Phone
When you call Kraken Security, a real person picks up. Not a voicemail tree, not a call center reading from a script. Someone who can actually help. In an industry where getting a callback can take days, that alone sets us apart.
Every Technician Is Trained Before They Touch a Job
Because this trade has no mandatory licensing in Alberta, technician quality varies wildly across the industry. We don't let unqualified people anywhere near client sites. Every Kraken technician completes structured training and is evaluated before working independently in the field.
Commercial & Industrial Focus, Not a Side Business
We don't split our attention between homeowners and businesses. Kraken Security works exclusively on commercial and industrial projects, which means our processes, equipment recommendations, and project management are all built around the realities of running a business: uptime, liability, compliance, and accountability.
Real Project Experience at Scale
We've installed touch-screen video intercoms with full elevator integration for a 34-story high-rise. We've deployed 66-camera surveillance systems across 6 buildings with redundant recording units, elevator cameras, and wireless bridges in garbage rooms. We've built an 18-door access control and alarm system with more than 90 monitored inputs for an oilfield services company. These aren't hypothetical case studies. They're projects we've delivered.
Transparency You Can Act On
Access control and video surveillance are passive security tools. They won't physically stop an incident, but they give you something just as valuable: a clear, time-stamped record of who was on your property and when. That transparency saves property managers and business owners time, protects them from liability disputes, and gives everyone peace of mind.
Automation That Works While You're Not Watching
Our systems are built to notify you immediately when something goes wrong, not after someone happens to check the footage three days later. Real-time alerts mean problems get addressed before they become bigger ones.

What Our Clients Say
FAQ's
Frequently asked questions
What areas does Kraken Security service?
We provide commercial and industrial security system installation and service throughout Calgary, Airdrie, Chestermere, Strathmore, Okotoks, Bragg Creek, Balzac, and Cochrane.
Do you work on residential properties?
No. Kraken Security focuses exclusively on commercial and industrial security projects, including offices, multi-tenant buildings, condominiums (as a building system, not individual suites), industrial facilities, and oilfield service operations.
Are your technicians certified?
There is no government-mandated licensing for electronic security system installers in Alberta, which has allowed a lot of unqualified technicians into the industry. Kraken Security requires every technician to complete internal training and be evaluated before working independently on client sites.
Do you offer emergency or after-hours service?
Yes. Our regular office hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM, and we maintain a 24/7 emergency service line for urgent issues outside those hours.
Can you integrate access control, video surveillance, and alarms into one system?
Yes. Most of our commercial and industrial clients use an integrated system, where access control, CCTV, and intrusion alarms are managed together for full visibility and easier administration.
How quickly can you respond to a service call?
Response times depend on the nature of the issue and your service location, but our 24/7 emergency line ensures urgent issues are addressed promptly, day or night.
