Mute
See how Sirix’s continuous monitoring stopped 2 intruders at a modern condo in Calgary, Alberta. When our operator detected unauthorized entry, they immediately initiated a pre-recorded talk-down, deterring the intruder before any damage could occur.
Background
A luxury high-rise condo building in Calgary faced a critical security challenge when 2 intruders attempted unauthorized entry into the building.
Like many residential condo buildings then passive security cameras only recorded incidents and lacked real-time intervention capabilities. When suspicious individuals approached the building after hours, there was no way to stop them before they gained access or caused damage.
They needed a smart condo security monitoring system that could detect threats and respond immediately with live voice intervention.
Challenges
Multiple vulnerable entry points
With 8 entrances, 3 parking levels, mail rooms, and amenity spaces, monitoring all access points simultaneously overwhelmed traditional security approaches.
Reactive-only surveillance
Passive video systems captured incidents but offered no real-time intervention, making them useful only for post-incident investigation rather than prevention.
After-hours vulnerability
Most incidents occurred between 10 PM and 6 AM when no staff was present, leaving the building completely unmonitored during peak risk hours.
Rising costs and liability
Repeated security incidents drove up insurance premiums, emergency repair costs, and resident turnover, creating financial strain on the condo corporation.
Solution
Active monitoring
Dedicated Sirix operators actively monitor the condo during surveillance hours.
Site familiarity
Operators learn the site over time and quickly recognize unusual or unauthorized activity.
Live deterrence
At the first sign of loitering or intrusion operators issue live voice warnings to deter theft.
Escalation
In rare cases where the intruder does not flee after the voice intervention, we escalate the response, including dispatching authorities.
Incident documentation
All incidents are logged in the Sirix Event Portal to support investigations and insurance claims.
