Recognized for Excellence in Security Services
Iron Horse has become an industry leader. Our award-winning business practices have earned national recognition from Profit Magazine, as we have secured a position in their coveted, nationally ranked Profit 100 Fastest Growing Companies in Canada for four consecutive years. Additionally, we have been selected as a finalist by the Greater Ottawa Chamber of Commerce for both Business of the Year and Mid-Market Business of the Year in their Business Achievement Awards category. One of our proudest achievements is our Consumers’ Choice Award for Business Excellence.
No other company in Canada has won these industry-leading awards and recognition. These awards are a direct reflection of our continued dedication to maintaining our founding principles that put the success of our clients and our people first.
National Awards, Local Commitment
Our success has been recognized on a national scale, with notable achievements including a spot on the Profit 100 Fastest-Growing Companies in Canada list and the Consumers’ Choice Award for Business Excellence, as well as multiple industry accolades. These achievements reflect our dedication to setting the highest standard in private security, backed by over two decades of proven performance.
But for us, recognition is more than a trophy on the shelf. It’s a reminder of the trust our clients place in us and the responsibility we have to give back to the communities we serve. That’s why we proudly support charitable initiatives like the Bug and Birdie Foundation, which provides critical aid and resources to families in need.
Awards acknowledge our past, but our commitment to community shapes our future, ensuring we protect not just properties, but people and the neighbourhoods they call home.
Achievements That Reflect Client Trust.
Better Business Bureau: 30 Years Honour Roll Accreditation
Better Business Bureau Accreditation is an honour, not every company is eligible. Only businesses that meet their high standards are invited to join. We maintain this status through our proactive approach of addressing client concerns before they become a problem, and should one arise, we respond quickly to ensure complete customer satisfaction. Iron Horse Security is proud to have been awarded “Honour Roll Member Status” with the Better Business Bureau since 1994. Our A+ rating is truly a testament to our commitment to operating with the highest ethics in mind at all times.

This award celebrates the leaders of today and tomorrow. It honours business leaders who have reached a significant level of success but have not yet reached the age of 40. These business leaders have a proven ability to balance bottom-line results with a desire to participate in charitable and community activities. The program is designed to promote mentorship and professional development by introducing these leaders to the established business community and by encouraging them as role models for young Canadians.

Why Recognition Matters in Security
Recognition comes in many forms. Online reviews, word of mouth, and awards can all culminate into a complete understanding of the type of security firm you consider and ultimately want to work with. The importance of understanding how a security company is perceived in the public's eye will define your expectations as it relates to your working relationship.
For example, Iron Horse Security has been the recipient of the Consumers' Choice award for over 18 years in a row, has been named to Profit 100 and has been a multi-year winner for the Top Choice Award. Such recognition would suggest a successful security company that values its reputation, predicated on the services it provides to its customers.
From Profit 100 Fastest-Growing Companies to Consumers' Choice Awards, Iron Horse Security’s accolades reflect our commitment to excellence in private security services across Ontario and Canada.
