What Can BGS Security Protect in Berkeley Heights?
Built for Wooded Lots
Berkeley Heights' heavy tree cover, long driveways and detached garages leave side and rear entries out of sight from the road. BGS Security places sensors and cameras to cover those blind approaches, with cellular backup for the outages that come with ridge-top living.
From the ridge-top streets above Mountain Avenue to the Passaic River flats along Springfield Avenue, BGS Security designs systems for Berkeley Heights' tree-screened lots, detached garages and flood-prone basements.
-
Driveways, gates, and outdoor access points — outdoor detectors can alert you when someone enters a configured protection zone, before they reach the house.
-
Doors and windows — door and window sensors, with arming settings that fit your family’s routine, all reporting to 24/7 alarm monitoring.
-
Cameras — see what triggered an alert; we tell you plainly which cameras can raise an alarm in your setup, and our own technicians handle the installation.
-
Fire, carbon monoxide and water — smoke, heat and CO detectors on fire alarm monitoring alongside intrusion; leak sensors alert you, and a compatible automatic shutoff valve can help limit damage when a leak is detected.
-
Shops, offices and other business premises in Berkeley Heights — business security with intrusion detection, cameras and monitored alarms, set up around your opening hours and who holds access.

What makes securing a home different in Berkeley Heights?
Berkeley Heights is a wooded Union County township on the crest of Second Watchung Mountain, built out in the decades after Bell Labs arrived at Murray Hill. Its split-levels, ranches and colonials sit on deep, tree-screened lots where neighbors rarely see each other's doors — and where storm outages and basement flooding are part of ownership. Security here has to cover the whole lot, not just the front door.
Berkeley Heights straddles the crest of Second Watchung Mountain and the Passaic River valley in northwestern Union County, with the Watchung Reservation on its eastern edge and Interstate 78 cutting across the township. Most of the housing dates from the post-war boom that followed Bell Labs' arrival at Murray Hill — split-levels, ranches and colonials on deep, wooded lots along Mountain and Plainfield Avenues, plus the Free Acres enclave on the Watchung border. Tree cover means side and rear doors are rarely visible from the road, detached garages are common, and homes along Springfield Avenue and near the Passaic sit in mapped flood zones.
BGS Security's security system installation in Berkeley Heights is designed around those lots — entry and glass-break sensors on the main house, wireless coverage for detached garages and sheds, exterior cameras aimed down the driveway, and flood sensors in low basements — tied to 24/7 monitoring with cellular and battery backup, because storm outages on the wooded ridge are a fact of life. We also serve neighboring New Providence, Summit and Mountainside, and the rest of our New Jersey service area.
Locally, Berkeley Heights requires a permit from the Chief of Police for any private alarm system under Chapter 8.12 of the township code, and four false alarms in a calendar year is treated as evidence of a faulty system. BGS Security files that registration for you and configures entry delays and verification so the system stays off the false-alarm list.
