GuardEX Security Services works with lake communities, club and recreational facilities, local businesses, residential properties, and larger wooded sites throughout Highland Lakes. Our role is to create clear, reliable coverage around the property’s real operating needs, not a one-size-fits-all package. Trained personnel, attentive supervision, and practical technology can be used individually or together, with duties, schedules, reporting, and escalation procedures established before service begins.
Local Protection
Highland Lakes includes residential communities, hospitality and recreation properties, local businesses, municipal facilities, and construction projects. GuardEX Security Services supports them with on-site officers, mobile patrols, off-site video monitoring, access control, and video systems designed around the property. The approach may be as simple as a staffed entrance or as layered as personnel, technology, and scheduled checks working together. We establish responsibilities, reporting, and escalation procedures in advance so managers have a plan that is straightforward to manage.

Highland Lakes is a private lake community within Vernon Township in northern Sussex County. The neighborhood developed around a series of lakes and wooded hills, creating a residential setting organized around beaches, club facilities, boating, swimming, and seasonal community activities. Roads wind through the lake areas and connect residents with Route 515, Vernon Center, McAfee, and the broader township. Homes range from older cottages converted for year-round use to larger residences on wooded or waterfront lots. Highland Lakes is not a separate municipality; schools, local government, and public services are provided through Vernon Township, while the lake association manages many community amenities. The surrounding Highlands landscape includes forests, wetlands, ridgelines, and nearby access to hiking and recreation. Commercial services are generally found along Vernon’s main road corridors rather than within the neighborhood itself. Highland Lakes retains a distinct identity shaped by its lake-focused layout, association traditions, and close connection to the natural setting of northern Sussex County.
