Client Scenario

High-Rise Condo Portfolio — Toronto

A property management company overseeing three downtown condo towers was dealing with recurring tailgating, package theft, and inconsistent overnight coverage from their previous provider. DW Security transitioned all three buildings within 10 days, deploying trained concierge-style guards with standardised visitor logs and parcel-room procedures.

Result: Resident complaints dropped by 60% within the first quarter. The management company renewed all three contracts and added lobby coverage at a fourth property.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can we get guards for overnight only?

Yes. Many residential clients use overnight guards from evening close through morning opening. We also offer 24-hour coverage for buildings that require it.

Do guards handle noise complaints and tenant disputes?

Guards respond to disturbances, de-escalate situations, and document incidents. They refer ongoing disputes to property management for resolution.
