Construction Site Security Construction Leads in Toronto (2026): 390 Projects in the Award Window
To find site security construction leads in Toronto, work from building permits and time the call to the build stage. On October 9, 2026, 390 permitted projects in the City of Toronto were still at the point where site security is awarded. The general contractor or developer buys site security as part of mobilization: fencing, cameras, guards and access control come out of the site setup budget, and lenders or insurers often require them. Builtie reads the permits, estimates each project's stage and attaches the builder or general contractor with a verified decision maker.
The same four steps, whether the buyer is a builder, a designer, an owner or a company you want to acquire.
How many site security projects are open in Toronto right now
| Measure | Toronto |
|---|---|
| Projects in the site security award window | 390 |
| New buildings / renovations and alterations | 258 / 0 |
| Permitted in the last 90 days | 181 |
| Rank among 25 markets for site security | 7 of 25 |
| Newest permit in the Toronto feed | October 6, 2026 |
Only new construction is counted for site security, because renovations rarely need it. Because site security is bought early, the 181 projects permitted in the last 90 days are the ones to call first; 46% of the count is that recent. Toronto ranks 7 of 25 markets Builtie covers for site security, behind Los Angeles (426 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when site security is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $10k of site security work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.

When site security is awarded, and who decides
Builtie times site security from about 10% before construction starts to about 15%, with the last realistic approach at about 50%. The general contractor or developer buys site security as part of mobilization: fencing, cameras, guards and access control come out of the site setup budget, and lenders or insurers often require them.

What the Toronto data covers
Builtie's Toronto data is the amalgamated City of Toronto, including Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough, East York and York. Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham and the rest of the GTA issue their own permits and are not in the feed today, so a Toronto count is not a GTA count. Toronto states a construction cost on about a third of 2026 permits.
If you work from Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Oakville and the rest of the GTA, Builtie shows you this feed as your nearest covered market; those cities' own permits are not in the count above.
