What Can BGS Security Protect in Chester?
Farm & Estate Coverage
A Chester property often means a main house plus barns, stables, equipment sheds and a driveway a quarter mile long. BGS Security extends detection and cameras to every structure and reports over cellular with battery backup, so coverage does not depend on a rural power line.
From antique shops along Main Street to horse farms and estates on the back roads toward the Black River, BGS Security designs systems that cover Chester's long driveways, outbuildings and wooded acreage as carefully as the house itself.
-
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 Chester — business security with intrusion detection, cameras and monitored alarms, set up around your opening hours and who holds access.

What makes securing a property different in Chester?
Chester is a village and a countryside in one — a walkable borough of shops and inns on Route 513 wrapped inside a 29-square-mile township of preserved farmland, equestrian properties and large wooded lots in the Highlands. Properties here spread across barns, paddocks and long private drives, far from any neighbor, and need a system designed for that distance rather than a kit sized for a suburban lot.
Chester is two municipalities sharing one name: Chester Borough, the village on Main Street (County Route 513) with its antique shops, the Chester House Inn and the 1740 First Congregational Church, and Chester Township, the 29 square miles of countryside around it — the Black River and Hacklebarney State Park, Willowwood Arboretum, and horse farms and country estates along Route 206. Most of the township lies in the Highlands Preservation Area, so homes sit on large wooded or pastured lots with long driveways, barns and stables well away from the house, and neighbors too far off to notice a problem.
BGS Security designs security system installation in Chester for that layout — driveway detection, winter-rated cameras, sensors in barns and outbuildings, and a hub that reports over cellular with battery backup, because outages along the wooded roads are routine. Every system is backed by 24/7 central-station monitoring, and Main Street shops get wireless equipment that avoids cable runs through old storefronts. We also serve neighboring Mendham, Long Valley and Peapack-Gladstone.
Chester Township's 2024 alarm ordinance (Chapter 54) requires every alarm to shut itself off within 15 minutes and fines false alarms within a 365-day period — none for the first, then $250, $500, and $1,500 for the fourth and each one after. BGS Security configures every system to meet those rules and confirms Chester Borough's requirements before activation.
