Comparing Providers
Choosing between security companies in Scarborough
If you are searching for security companies in Scarborough, you are probably shortlisting three or four providers for the same job: an apartment tower with lobby and garage problems, a plaza that keeps getting hit overnight, a warehouse near Tapscott, or a banquet hall with a heavy event calendar. The honest way to compare us is on the specifics, so this page lays them out.
Scarborough’s defining property type is the residential tower. Few parts of Canada have more aging high-rise rental buildings, and they generate steady security work: lobby presence, trespass response, garage patrols, camera coverage and documentation a landlord can actually use with tenants, insurers or the Landlord and Tenant Board. Around them sit the Scarborough Town Centre core with its new condo towers, the Golden Mile retail corridor with Crosstown East construction running through it, and industrial employment lands in the northeast where vehicle and cargo theft pressure is real.
Supreme Security Services has staffed Scarborough properties for over 15 years. Every guard is licensed under Ontario’s Private Security and Investigative Services Act, insured, and briefed on your building’s access points, house rules and reporting format before the first shift. Dispatch runs 24/7 from our head office in Concord.

What changes from one part of Scarborough to another
The post orders for a Town Centre condo and a Malvern industrial yard have little in common. Here is how the work differs across Scarborough.
Scarborough City Centre and Bendale
The civic core: Scarborough Town Centre, new condo towers and transit construction. Buildings here need lobby coverage, visitor control, garage patrols and clean board-ready reporting.
Golden Mile and Eglinton East
Big-box retail and plazas with the Crosstown East extension under construction alongside. Typical scope: plaza patrols, overnight lockups, construction-site checks and parking control.
Agincourt and Milliken
Supermarkets, plazas and banquet halls with heavy weekend traffic, plus light industrial along the northern corridors. Retail patrols and event-night coverage lead the requests here.
Malvern and the Tapscott employment lands
Residential communities beside one of Toronto’s largest industrial districts. Warehouses and fleet yards here run on gate control, yard patrols and monitored cameras.
Kingston Road corridor and Birch Cliff
Motels, plazas and mixed residential along one of Scarborough’s oldest corridors. Property owners here usually want visible evening patrols, trespass response and documentation.
West Hill, Morningside and the UTSC area
Campus-adjacent rentals, healthcare-adjacent properties and community facilities. Evening patrols, alarm response and building coverage sized to tighter budgets.
Pricing
What security coverage costs in Scarborough
Most Scarborough clients pay between $28 and $45 per hour for uniformed guard coverage, in line with 2026 rates across the GTA. The exact rate depends on hours per week, the number of guards, the training the post requires, and how quickly coverage must start. Longer contracts bring the hourly rate down, and same-day requests carry a premium.
As a guide to 2026 ranges: a uniformed security guard on a single site runs $28 to $35 per hour, a condo concierge or front desk officer $28 to $34 per hour, and a construction site or fire watch guard $30 to $40 per hour. Mobile patrol starts from $25 per visit, and event security staff run $35 to $45 per hour.

Site assessment
A supervisor walks the property with you, identifies weak points and writes the post orders your guards will follow.
Guards deployed
Most Scarborough sites are staffed within the same week, subject to scheduling. Urgent coverage is handled 24/7 and prioritized by our dispatch.
A recent engagement
A property manager ran sites in three different cities with three different security vendors and three reporting formats. We took over the portfolio with one dispatch, one supervisor and one monthly report covering every property. Coordination calls dropped to one a month, and the portfolio has renewed twice.

Compare Providers
Comparing security companies in Scarborough? Ask these four questions
Whoever you shortlist, ask every provider the same four things. Our answers are on this page, and theirs should be just as specific. Supreme Security Services is a licensed and insured Ontario security agency, in business more than 15 years, working from our head office in Concord with dispatch answering 24/7.
Who exactly will show up?
Ask for a named supervisor, not a dispatch line. Your building gets one supervisor who knows the site, answers the phone and shows up when something goes wrong.
Are the guards licensed and briefed for my site?
Every Supreme guard holds a valid Ontario security licence under the PSISA and walks the site with a supervisor before working it: entrances, cameras, escalation contacts and reporting format.
What do the reports look like?
Ask for a sample report before you sign anything. Ours are plain-English shift logs, incident reports and patrol records, written so a manager, board or insurer can use them.
Will you tell me if I need less than I asked for?
We quote guards, patrol, monitoring or a mix after seeing the site, and we say so when the cheaper option genuinely covers the risk. A quote that ignores your actual problem is a sales document, not a security plan.
