Security lighting installation in Irvine for drives, doors, paths and yards. We fit motion-sensor floodlights and dusk-to-dawn lights that put off intruders and help you get in safely at night, with a free quote first.
Motion-sensor lights stay off until someone approaches, which startles intruders and saves energy. Dusk-to-dawn lights come on automatically when it gets dark and stay on at a low level, lighting paths and doors all night. Some fittings combine both, glowing softly then brightening on movement.
Lights work best mounted high enough to be out of reach but aimed at doors, gates and dark corners where someone might approach. Sensors need setting so they catch people on your property, not cars passing on the street or the neighbour's cat.
Brighter isn't always better. A very bright floodlight can dazzle you and create deep shadows where someone could stand unseen. A few well-placed LED lights give even coverage, and shields or careful aiming keep light off neighbours' windows and the road.
We walk round the outside of the property with you, looking at entrances, parking, paths and any blind spots. We agree the number and type of lights and where switches or timers go, then give you a free quote for the fittings and wiring.
We fit the lights on weatherproof fixings, run and protect the cables and connect them to an RCD-protected circuit. Once it's dark enough, or using the test mode, we set the sensor range and timing so the lights respond the way you want.

It helps. Most people trying to get into a property don't want to be seen, and a light that switches on suddenly draws attention. Lighting works best alongside good locks and, where needed, CCTV, which can record clearer footage once the lights come on.
Yes. Many cameras pick up better detail when a security light comes on, and some floodlight cameras combine both in one unit. Placing lights so they light up faces rather than shining into the camera lens gives the best results, and we plan the two together.
Usually because the sensor is set too sensitive or aimed at a road, trees moving in the wind or a neighbour's path. Adjusting the range, angle and timer normally fixes it. If the light flickers or stays on, the sensor may have failed and need replacing.
Yes, if there's a safe power supply. A garage with existing power can usually take a light easily. For a shed or detached building without power, we can run a supply from the house or suggest a solar-powered light for small areas.
