COMMERCIAL SECURITY FIRM — TORONTO
"Our overnight guards patrol 40 floors of empty office space alone. CheckMate's timed check-ins at each floor give us accountability and safety in one system. When a guard slipped on a wet stairwell last month, the SOS wearable had help on the way before he could reach his radio."
INDUSTRIAL SECURITY — FORT MCMURRAY
"We staff remote industrial sites where guards can go an entire 12-hour shift without seeing another person. Satellite check-ins are the only reliable way to make sure they're okay — cell coverage is nonexistent at half our postings."
NATIONAL RETAIL CHAIN
"The discreet panic button has been a game-changer for our loss prevention team. When a shoplifting intervention turns aggressive, they can trigger an alert without escalating the situation. Police arrive faster because the monitoring centre is already on it."
Yes. The SOS wearable is worn under clothing and triggers with a simple button press — no screen, no sound, no visible action. The 24/7 monitoring centre receives the alert silently with the guard's GPS location and follows your escalation protocol, which can include dispatching police immediately.
Mobile patrol guards carry the Safe Alone app on their phone, which tracks their GPS location in real-time as they move between sites. Check-in timers can be set per site or per shift. The monitoring dashboard shows dispatch exactly where each guard is, which sites have been visited, and flags any missed check-ins instantly.
The SOS wearable works independently of cell coverage — it provides fall detection and panic alerts even in underground garages, basements, and other areas with no cell signal. For check-ins in areas with intermittent coverage, the system queues check-ins and sends them as soon as signal is restored.
Yes. The monitoring dashboard is designed for multi-site operations. You can see every guard on shift across all your client sites, set different check-in schedules per site, and customize escalation procedures for each location. Contract security companies use this to manage hundreds of guards across their entire portfolio.
Security guards working alone — particularly overnight, on mobile patrol, or at remote sites — fall under provincial working alone regulations. Most provinces require employers to have a system for checking on lone workers at regular intervals and a procedure for responding to emergencies. CheckMate provides the timed check-ins, real-time tracking, and 24/7 emergency response that these regulations require.
Join Canadian security companies who trust CheckMate to keep their guards safe — every patrol, every shift.
