Security Floodlights & Spotlights

Protect Your Home with Reliable Outdoor Security Lights

A well-lit exterior is an extremely effective deterrent to uninvited house guests. 

Strategically placed outdoor security lights eliminate dark corners around driveways, side gates, and entry points, making a property less vulnerable. Beyond security, exterior lighting can also make your home feel more welcoming for family and guests arriving after dark.

Choosing the Right Outdoor Sensor Light for Your Property

An outdoor sensor light only activates when it detects movement. Modern outdoor motion sensor technology offers adjustable settings for sensitivity and detection range, meaning reliable activation when someone approaches and no more false triggers from passing cars, wind-blown branches, or neighbourhood animals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best height to install outdoor security lights? 

For broad coverage and tamper resistance, you should mount outdoor security lights between 2.1 and 3 metres above the ground. This height gives the outdoor motion sensor light a clear, unobstructed detection area while remaining high enough to prevent interference. Corner placements typically offer the widest coverage from a single fixture.

Can I adjust the sensitivity of my outdoor sensor light? 

Yes. Most outdoor sensor light models allow you to adjust both sensitivity and detection range, reducing the chance that outdoor security lights with motion sensors are triggered unnecessarily by passing traffic or small animals without compromising their response to genuine activity.

Should I choose LED for my security lighting project? 

Yes. LEDs reach full brightness the instant they are triggered, which is critical for a motion-activated fixture. They also consume significantly less power than halogen equivalents and last far longer, reducing ongoing maintenance and replacement costs over the life of the globe.
