Benefits of an Outdoor Security Lighting Installation
Adding an outdoor security lighting installation to your Bradford home brings many potential benefits.
Benefits include:
- Effective Deterrent to Crime: This is perhaps the most obvious benefit of an outdoor security lighting installation, but it cannot be overstated. Adding outdoor lighting to your Bradford home provides a significant degree of protection, lowering your chance of being burgled. By removing dark spots and lowering the ease of undetected entry, you are making your home less vulnerable to intruders. Numerous studies have shown that homes with well positioned security lighting are much less likely to be targeted.
- Safer Navigation: When your outdoor security lighting is designed and installed with usability in mind it can serve many purposes. Your lighting can be used to make navigating the pathways - and finding the door, much easier for both you and your invited guests. Well lit paths help to avoid accidents and will make you feel more confident in your safety when coming and going at night.
- Aesthetically Pleasing: Modern outdoor security lighting is available in a range of stylish designs and can be used to beautify your Bradford home’s exterior. This can be achieved with careful planning and sympathetic installation.
- Outdoor Hosting: If you like to enjoy your garden in the warmer months, an outdoor security lighting installation can help make your events brighter. As mentioned above, your outdoor lighting can be multifunctional, making it easier to see your whole garden, highlighting points of interest and making it safer to walk around after dark.
Choosing Outdoor Security Lighting
There are many options on the market for an outdoor security lighting installation at your Bradford home. Each will be suited to different uses. As experienced outdoor security lighting installers, we can help you select the right combination of products for your home. The main outdoor security lighting types installed are flood lights and motion sensor or PIR lights. Here at Quality Electrician, we are no longer installing PIR floodlights due to their high failure rate - 15% fail in the first 2 years. They suffer from many other problems including sensitivity issues. We are now installing separate Steinel PIR lighting sensors and floodlights for a future proofed installation. The separate PIR gives you more and better control with movement and adjustment. Different types of sensors can be fitted I.e. 120', 180', 360'. More than one PIR can be used to operate the lighting, for example around corners or on 2 sides of the house. The PIRs installed can also be set to operate all lighting if required. Whilst this is a slightly more expensive approach, it is undoubtably the most reliable one and with security, reliability is key. As your local expert electrician, we will only ever install products that meet the highest standards and that have a proven track record for longevity.
