TELSCO Designs Retail Security Systems for Edmonton Stores
TELSCO designs, installs, and monitors retail security systems that help protect Edmonton stores from break-ins, theft, and after-hours losses. Your system can combine intrusion alarms, security cameras, card access, and 24/7 live monitoring, all built around your store’s layout, stock, and hours.
Edmonton businesses have trusted TELSCO since 1970. When your alarm goes off, a local operator at our Edmonton monitoring centre responds, not an outsourced call centre.
Find the right protection for your store:
Intrusion Alarm Systems
Door contacts, motion sensors, and glassbreak detectors detect a break-in and signal our monitoring centre. Your alarm runs on battery backup and cellular communication, so it keeps working during a power outage.
Retail Security Cameras
Check live and recorded video of your sales floor, counters, and entrances from your phone. TELSCO supports both NVR and DVR systems and offers Intelligent Video Analytics.
Card Access Control
Replace keys with cards or fobs. Add or remove staff access without changing locks, and pair door events with video to see who opened a door and when.
24/7 Live Monitoring
Local operators at our Edmonton monitoring centre answer alarms 24/7, with an average alarm response time of 33.5 seconds. Video verification helps police treat a confirmed alarm as a higher priority.
TELSCO Connect App
Manage users, alarms, and cameras for one store or many locations with a single login. Stay connected to your business from anywhere.
ULC-Certified Fire Monitoring
Protect your commercial building with ULC-certified fire monitoring, including pull stations, smoke sensors, and system communication testing.

Jewellery Store Security Systems
Jewellery store security needs extra layers because your inventory is small, valuable, and easy to carry. TELSCO designs jewellery store security systems that protect your showroom, display cases, and back rooms, day and night.
How TELSCO Protects Jewellery Stores
- Layered intrusion detection: Door contacts, motion sensors, and glassbreak detectors cover entry points, showrooms, and storage areas.
- Panic buttons with live video: When staff press a panic button, our operators can view your live cameras right away, without first calling the store to confirm.
- Video-verified alarms: Video confirmation helps police treat your alarm as a higher priority than an unverified alarm.
- Card access for back rooms: Control who enters stock rooms and offices, and pair every door event with video.
- Battery and cellular backup: Your alarm system keeps communicating during a power outage.
Hobby and Collectible Store Security Systems
Hobby and collectible store security protects high-value items like trading cards, comics, figures, and limited releases. TELSCO builds hobby store security systems that help you protect display cases, counters, and back stock.
How TELSCO Protects Hobby and Collectible Stores
- Cameras over cases and counters: Place cameras where your most valuable stock sits, then check live or recorded video from your phone.
- After-hours intrusion protection: Door contacts, motion sensors, and glassbreak detectors detect a break-in and alert our local operators.
- Back stock access control: Give staff card or fob access to storage areas, and remove it quickly when someone leaves.
- Video-verified response: Video confirmation of an intrusion supports a higher-priority police response.
- Remote control: Manage your alarm, cameras, and users in the TELSCO Connect app.
Our security sales advisor will recommend the right sensors for your store based on your space and layout.
