What Can BGS Security Protect in Fanwood?
Historic District Installs
Fanwood Park's Victorians and revival-style homes have original moldings, stained glass and plaster that owners protect carefully. BGS Security's wireless Ajax equipment covers doors and windows without a single hole in historic trim.
From the 1890s houses on the curving streets of Fanwood Park to the 1950s capes south of the tracks, BGS Security designs systems that respect original woodwork in one of Union County's smallest, densest boroughs.
-
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 Fanwood — 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 Fanwood?
Fanwood is a 1.3-square-mile borough that grew up around its 1874 Raritan Valley Line station — a National Register historic district of Victorian and Georgian Revival houses on curvilinear streets north of the tracks, and tighter post-war lots to the south. Houses sit close together on small lots, and many owners won't have original trim or plaster drilled. Security here has to be unobtrusive and precise.
Fanwood is one of Union County's smallest boroughs — 1.3 square miles on a low ridge between Scotch Plains and Plainfield, split in two by the Raritan Valley Line and Route 28 (South Avenue). North of the tracks, the 52-acre Fanwood Park Historic District keeps the curvilinear streets laid out in 1874 around the Victorian station, lined with Queen Anne, Georgian Revival and Craftsman houses from the 1890s to the 1920s; south of the tracks the lots are smaller and the houses are mostly post-war capes and colonials. Homes stand close together with short setbacks, and the Robinson's Branch of the Rahway River crosses the south end, so a few low streets deal with wet basements.
BGS Security's security system installation in Fanwood is built on Ajax wireless hardware — the right choice for houses where original sashes, moldings and plaster are not to be touched — with discreet door and window contacts, glass-break sensors and a doorbell camera at the porch. Everything connects to 24/7 monitoring with cellular backup. We also serve neighboring Scotch Plains and Westfield, and the rest of our New Jersey service area.
Locally, Fanwood's alarm ordinance (Ord. No. 08-22R, Chapter 108 of the borough code) requires every alarm device to be registered with the Borough Clerk, who passes the registration to the police department; the borough's application lists a $10 registration fee. BGS Security files that registration for you before the system goes live.
