External Lighting for Security

With darker evenings, external lighting around the outside of your home is both attractive and comforting. More usefully, it adds a touch of security, knowing that visitors can be seen as they approach your property.

There are numerous ways of lighting the outside areas: wall mounted lamps, floor standing mini or tall posts, up lights, directional lights, passive infra red (sensor) – the list is endless. These lights can be operated in a number of ways, for instance by timer switches, movement detectors or light sensors.

You may require a ‘welcome’ light as you approach your path and entrance and you may also consider floodlighting the area around your property for security.

Garden lighting prolongs your evenings spent in the garden in the summer and can enable enjoyment as well as additional security in the darker months. Lighting a specimen tree or shrub brings a new dimension to your garden and can allow you to continue to enjoy your garden through picture windows or patio doors, from the warmth of indoors.

Lighting inside your home is just as important as the nights draw in. Timers and light sensors can enable your lights to come on even when you’re not home, not only can this be a deterrent to unwanted visitors but it provides you with a warm welcome.

Scene-setting is a great option for lighting multiple-task rooms and with smart home installation you can programme your lighting by linking it to your WiFi.
