What Can BGS Security Protect in Raritan?

Compact Lots, Close Neighbors

Raritan's older blocks put houses a few feet apart with side entries, rear alleys and tenant units that owners can't always see. BGS Security plans door and window coverage for every unit and entry, with doorbell and rear cameras where sightlines are short.

Raritan packs a century-old street grid, a Raritan Valley Line station and a river floodplain into two square miles, and BGS Security designs for all three.

  • 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 Raritan — 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 Raritan?

Raritan is a compact, walkable borough wedged between the Somerville Circle and the Raritan River — closely spaced single-family and two-family homes built around the old mill economy, newer townhome and apartment communities near the station and the river, and small businesses along Somerset Street. Close neighbors, shared driveways, rental units and low-lying blocks near the water each change how a system should be laid out.

Raritan is two square miles of borough between Route 28 and the Raritan River, laid out in a tight grid around Somerset Street and the Raritan Valley Line station, with the river bending along its southern edge. The housing is mostly pre-war single-family and two-family homes on narrow lots — side doors, rear porches and detached garages on shared drives — joined in recent years by townhome and apartment communities near the station and the water. Houses this close give a short line of sight from the street, rental units put more than one household behind one front door, and the low-lying blocks near the river sit in a floodplain.

BGS Security's security system installation in Raritan uses Ajax wireless equipment suited to older houses and rented units, with door and window coverage for every entry, doorbell and rear cameras where the view is short, and water sensors in basements near the river. Every system reports to 24/7 central-station monitoring with cellular backup. We also serve neighboring Somerville, Bridgewater and Hillsborough.

Locally, Raritan Borough requires every alarm system to be registered with the Police Department, and audible alarms must reset within 15 minutes, with automatic dialers prohibited. The first two false alarms in a calendar year draw warnings; the third is fined $50, rising to $200 and a mandatory court appearance from the sixth. BGS Security completes the registration on your behalf and sets up every system to meet the ordinance before activation.
