Security Systems in Flin Flon
Cameras and alarms for Flin Flon's working plants and retail, remote viewing for closed buildings, and cable routes planned around the Canadian Shield.
Flin Flon was built on rock and on mining. Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting founded the city in 1927 to mine copper and zinc, and about 17 mines have operated in the area since the late 1910s. The 777 Mine closed in June 2022, and the copper smelter closed in 2010. Flin Flon straddles the Manitoba-Saskatchewan border, with most of the city in Manitoba, and we install security systems in Flin Flon, Manitoba from Winnipeg.
Security Systems for Flin Flon Plants and Retail
Manufacturing is still the largest job sector, at 1,541 jobs in the 2016 data, followed by retail at 702 and health care and social assistance at 643. For a working plant we cover the gate and the yard with cameras, add lighting where night video needs it, and put door access on the plant and the office, so each employee gets into the areas they work in.
For retail, we put cameras on the front door, the back door and the stockroom, with an alarm for the hours the store is closed.
Buildings That Are Closed but Still Need Watching
Flin Flon’s population peaked at 11,106 in 1961 and was 5,099 in 2021, and mining has changed since the city was built. Some properties from the mining years are closed or lightly used. An owner of a closed building still needs to know if a door has been opened or if there is damage.
We install cameras and alarms with remote viewing so the owner can check on a closed building without a trip.
Building on the Canadian Shield
Most of the surface in Flin Flon is exposed Canadian Shield bedrock, and Flin Flon is known as The City Built On Rock. In parts of the city there is too little soil to bury water and sewer lines, so the city uses above-ground sewer boxes. The same ground makes trenching cable difficult.
On a security job that matters, because a camera needs power and a data connection. We work out the route in the site evaluation, starting with the pathways the buildings already have, and agree it with the owner before the estimate goes out. On the Shield, network cabling is planned before a single cable is pulled.

Security System Questions in Flin Flon
Do you serve Flin Flon?
Yes. We serve Flin Flon, Manitoba from Winnipeg.
Can you watch a building that is closed or not in use?
Yes. Cameras with remote viewing and an alarm let an owner check on a closed building from anywhere. A closed building still needs power and a connection for that, and we confirm both before we quote.
Can you add cameras where the ground is solid rock?
Yes. On rock, the cable route is the first decision. We work it out in the site evaluation, starting with the pathways the buildings already have, and agree it with you before the estimate goes out.
Can one system cover a plant and its office?
Yes. We cover the yard and gate with cameras, put door access on the plant and office doors, and plan the cabling for both together.
