What Can BGS Security Protect in Metuchen?
Historic Homes, Careful Installation
Metuchen's pre-war houses have original plaster, hardwood trim, and leaded windows that no owner wants cabled through. BGS Security's Ajax wireless equipment mounts without permanent alteration and covers the porches, side entries, and detached garages typical of the borough's deep, narrow lots.
Metuchen's century-old houses deserve security that doesn't cut into original plaster and trim — BGS Security's wireless systems are built for exactly that, with the same care applied to the borough's Main Street shops and new transit-village apartments.
-
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 Metuchen — 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 Metuchen?
Metuchen is a walkable, tree-lined borough of under three square miles, surrounded entirely by Edison and built around its Northeast Corridor station. Its streets are lined with Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, and Craftsman houses — nearly two hundred of them in the Middlesex Avenue–Woodwild Park historic district — now joined by apartments beside the station. Houses like these call for security that preserves what makes them worth protecting.
Metuchen is a borough of under three square miles surrounded by Edison — the Brainy Borough, a state-designated transit village built around its Northeast Corridor station and a Main Street of independent shops, with Route 27 crossing its center and I-287 along its southern edge. Growth followed the railroad, and the housing shows it: Queen Anne, Italianate, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, and Craftsman houses on deep, narrow lots, nearly two hundred of them in the Middlesex Avenue–Woodwild Park historic district, rising toward Beacon Hill in Centennial Park. Newer apartments beside the station add renters. The pre-war houses have wraparound porches, side and basement entries, and detached garages at the end of long driveways, out of sight from the street.
BGS Security's security system installation in Metuchen relies on Ajax wireless equipment that avoids cable runs through plaster, original window frames, and hardwood trim, with entry sensors on porch and side doors, detached-garage coverage, and doorbell cameras for apartments near the station — all backed by 24/7 central-station monitoring with cellular backup. We also serve surrounding Edison and nearby Woodbridge and Highland Park.
Metuchen is a rail-commuter town, and its houses empty out on a predictable weekday schedule from the morning trains until evening. BGS Security designs around that rhythm — remote arming from the platform, video verification at the front door so deliveries and visitors are seen in real time, and alerts that reach you on the train.
