About Us
The New Jersey Burglar & Fire Alarm

State of New Jersey.
What we offer the community . . .
Industry Professionals
In the State of New Jersey, contractor
licensing for fire alarm systems started in
June of 2003 through the Department of
Community Affairs in Trenton. In March of
2004, contractor licensing for burglar
alarms and all other security systems,
including fire alarms, became mandatory
through the Department of Consumer Affairs
in Newark. NJBFAA has been a driving force
in providing information and training to our
members to ultimately protect the consumer.
NJBFAA always promotes hiring a licensed
contractor.
Our members must adhere to a strong Code of
Ethics, which underscores the importance of
our high standards.
