Burnaby Professional Security You Can Rely On
Burnaby packs an unusual mix into one municipality: three of the largest shopping centres in Western Canada, a dense and fast-rising tower stock around each of them, the province's busiest film production infrastructure, two major post-secondary campuses, and a substantial light-industrial belt along Still Creek. Each of those generates a different kind of security file.
The city's four town centres — Metrotown, Brentwood, Lougheed and Edmonds — have all been rebuilt around SkyTrain with high-density residential towers, which means a large and growing volume of strata, concierge, and parkade security work alongside the retail loss prevention that the malls have always required. Meanwhile the Still Creek and Big Bend industrial areas face the standard overnight problems: metal theft, equipment loss, trespass and vandalism.
Zampa Security staffs all of it. Our Burnaby officers hold valid BC Security Worker Licences, carry full liability coverage, and submit timestamped, photo-backed reports that property managers, strata councils and corporate risk teams can act on directly.

Security Built Around Burnaby's Industries
Burnaby's four town centres and its industrial belt each carry distinct risk. These are the four sectors we work in most.
Shopping Centre & Retail Loss Prevention
Metropolis at Metrotown, Brentwood and Lougheed draw regional traffic volumes and the organized retail crime that follows them. We provide uniformed deterrence and plain-clothes loss prevention officers trained to document, de-escalate and hand off to RCMP rather than pursue — protecting both your inventory and your liability position.
High-Density Residential & Strata
Burnaby's tower growth around all four SkyTrain town centres has created heavy demand for concierge and lobby coverage. Our officers manage fob and visitor access, conduct parkade sweeps for vehicle break-ins and catalytic converter theft, handle noise and bylaw incidents, and build the documented record strata councils need.
Film Production & Studio Security
Burnaby hosts a significant share of BC's production infrastructure. We provide overnight set and equipment security, basecamp and trailer coverage, controlled access to closed sets, and location security for shoots working on Burnaby streets and in city parks.
Industrial & Construction Sites
The Still Creek, Big Bend and Riverbend industrial areas, plus the constant tower construction at each town centre, draw copper, tool and fuel theft. We deliver overnight static guards, access control, randomized GPS-tracked patrols, and fire watch coverage during periods when suppression systems are impaired.

Security Services in Burnaby — Common Questions
How much do security guards cost in Burnaby?
Rates vary by post type, shift length, officer count and whether the coverage is overnight, weekend or holiday. Concierge coverage for a Brentwood tower prices differently from a retail loss prevention detail at Metrotown. We quote per site after a free assessment — call 236-867-3519.
Are your Burnaby security guards licensed?
Yes. Every officer holds a valid BC Security Worker Licence issued under the Security Services Act, and the company carries full commercial liability insurance. We supply licence verification and certificates of insurance on request before work begins.
Do you provide concierge security for Burnaby strata buildings?
Yes. Concierge and lobby security is one of our core Burnaby services, particularly around Metrotown, Brentwood and Lougheed where tower density is highest. Officers handle access control, visitor management, parkade patrols, incident documentation and after-hours response for strata councils and property managers.
Can you provide fire watch security in Burnaby?
Yes. Fire watch is commonly required in Burnaby when a sprinkler or fire alarm system is impaired during renovation or after a fault, and Burnaby Fire Department or your insurer requires continuous patrol. Our guards perform documented timed rounds and maintain the written compliance log.
Do you secure film sets and production equipment in Burnaby?
Yes. We provide overnight set security, equipment and trailer coverage, basecamp security and controlled access for closed sets. Burnaby's concentration of studio and location shooting makes this a regular part of our work in the city.
