What Can BGS Security Protect in New Providence?

Mid-Century Retrofit Specialists

New Providence's 1950s and 1960s houses have original windows, finished basements and additions that were never wired for security. BGS Security's wireless Ajax equipment covers every door and window without opening walls, and adds flood sensors where Salt Brook or the Passaic is close.

In a borough where more than four in five homes were built before 1970, BGS Security designs systems that fit mid-century houses on the western slope of the Watchung ridge, from the Village center to the streets that run down toward the Passaic River.

  • 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 New Providence — 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 New Providence?

New Providence is a 3.7-square-mile borough on the western slope of Second Watchung Mountain, bounded by the Passaic River and anchored by Nokia Bell Labs in Murray Hill. It grew almost all at once in the 1950s and 1960s, so the housing stock is remarkably consistent — colonials, split-levels and ranches on half-acre lots with detached or attached garages — with wooded floodplain along Salt Brook and the Passaic. Security here is about retrofitting sixty-year-old houses cleanly and watching low ground.

New Providence occupies the western slope of Second Watchung Mountain at the far corner of Union County, running downhill from the Summit line to the Passaic River, with forks of Salt Brook draining through the residential streets toward the wooded floodplain. The town was farmland and rose nurseries until Bell Labs opened at Murray Hill in 1941; the population quadrupled in two decades, and more than eighty percent of the houses date from before 1970 — colonials, split-levels and ranches on half-acre lots, many with original wood windows, finished basements and later additions. Springfield Avenue and the Village Shopping Center are the commercial core, and the two Gladstone Branch stations empty the town on weekdays.

BGS Security's security system installation in New Providence relies on Ajax wireless sensors that mount on sixty-year-old sashes and sliders without opening a wall, with a doorbell camera at the front, coverage of the detached garage, and a flood sensor by the sump pit on the lower streets near Salt Brook. Every system reports to 24/7 central-station monitoring with cellular backup. We also serve neighboring Berkeley Heights and Summit, and the rest of our New Jersey service area.

Locally, New Providence asks every home and business with a burglar alarm to register it with the New Providence Police Department using the borough's Alarm Registration Form, which records the alarm company and the people police should call. BGS Security submits that form for you before the system goes live.
