ABOUT US

Spadina Security Incorporated (SSI) is a locksmith company specializing in Security Locks.  We service the greater Toronto area (GTA) but focus in specific areas of the city, especially downtown Toronto.

 
SSI started in 2001, designed to service an existing cliental.

 

We developed our products and services to serve the needs of our clients in the matters of burglary prevention and modernized convenience.

Our office is located in the Queen and Spadina area.  Most of our business is located at your door so we have not invested in a showroom of our own. 

 

If you would like to meet us and see our products first hand please call to make an appointment.  We are always happy to meet with you and discuss your needs.

 

Alternatively you can stop by one of our shared showrooms:

Securely Yours at 3395 Bathurst Street and Jacobs Hardware at 410 Queen Street West to view displays of our products.

 

To make our business more accessable we have arrangements with existing security stores.  Think of it like having a coffee shop inside a book store.  The relationships have been mutually beneficial and we thank our partners at Jacobs Hardware and Securely Yours.

A locksmith is a specialist who takes care of your locks.

A lock is the most reliable machine we use every day.  If installed correctly, a lock can last 25 or (certain locks) even 50 years with little or no maintenance. 

Spadina Security Incorporated (SSI) has a lot to offer.  As a LOCKSMITH company we are dedicated to the ideals of the trade.  We try to bring this history of integrity, responsibility, trust and reliability to all the fields we cover.

Electronic security has become a big part of what we do.  Electronic locks with remote controls, access control systems and even camera systems are now part of our daily routine as well as installing deadbolt locks.  Part of our job is to advise you, the purchaser, on the best product for your needs.

It is unfortunate that we have seen “look-a-like” locks and toy locks brought to the market.  The term “Buyer beware” is apt when you can buy (what looks like) a lock for one dollar.

Just about everything we do is a form of automation.  From automatic door closers to proximity card access systems, it all fits in the category of automation.  Some systems have become able to function without us for periods of time.  If not designed correctly these systems fail us when we need them.  CCTV is one aspect of security where automation has gone too far.  We can use a camera to replace a person acting as a sentinel.  Then we can replace the watcher of the camera with a recording unit.  The process has become an automated loop.

This is a problem when a camera fails or the recorder stops recording.  Nobody knows.

With SSI designing a CCTV system for you we often integrate the CCTV system with your Alarm System.  If a camera goes down or the DVR stops recording you get a phone call immediately.  Too often we see a crime go unrecorded by an expensive CCTV System that was unplugged. 

Integration of the different types of security systems is a big part of what we do.  Spending thousands of dollars on a sophisticated card access control system hardly makes sense when it can be defeated by a two dollar key that anyone can copy at the corner store.  Using the right system for your needs is an essential part of security.  Security must be easy or it will not be used.

We have been active on TV and in the community.  Our free seminars on burglary prevention were well received by those who attended.  We thank the Forest Hill Homeowners Association for sponsoring these events.

Please enjoy this website.  It is the largest and most comprehensive locksmith website in Toronto.  We continue to expand both the product catalogue and the general information for your benefit.

Spadina Security has two showroom locations where you can see, feel and play with a  Mul-T-Lock Hercular Deadbolt before we install one on your home or office door.

See for yourself why this deadbolt lock is so much better than other locks on the market today.
