Solar Spot Light

For the out-of -the box approach, you can purchase a purpose-built security lighting system which incorporates a solar panel, one or more adjustable LED or incandescent spot lights, and a battery into a single wall-mounted or pole-mounted package capable of detecting movement and switching from off to full brightness instantly.

A possible problem for you may be the cold glare typical of security lighting.

Don’t forget, you can use these techniques and tools to light entrances and doorways…

Another approach involves designing security lighting features into your existing, or soon to be installed lighting system.

Solar Deck Light

Area-lighting establishes a base level of illumination for enjoyment of outdoor activities.

This technique is often used on the patio and deck while Down-Lighting or lighting objects from above to imitate the effect of sunlight.

Use flush-mounted lighting to illuminate steps, floors pathways. Especially useful in pool areas.

These techniques, as you can guess offer garden illumination with a sense of security without over-lighting or maybe more important, without wasting money.

Can you use solar security lights inside? Yes you can, but as you would guess you have to pass an electrical wire from the solar panel outside through the wall to the light inside.



NOTE
If you opt for a line-powered rather than solar powered security system, be sure to place your light switches in a convenient location from which you may both operate your lights while observing your property.
