Outdoor Security Lights
A good security light does two jobs: it makes your home less inviting to the wrong people and safer for everyone else. Our range covers LED sensor lights, twin spotlights and floodlights from Martec, Domus, Energetic, Nordlux and SAL, built to handle Aussie weather.
Getting the setup right
- Mounting heightAround 2.4 to 3 m keeps the light out of reach and gives the sensor a good view.
- Sensor rangeCheck the detection angle and distance against the area you want covered.
- Adjustable headsTwin heads let you light a driveway and a side gate from one fitting.
- NeighboursAim the light down and away from neighbouring windows.
Questions we get asked
Where should I put security lights?
Driveways, side paths, back doors and anywhere a person could approach without being seen. Front entries suit a softer wall light plus a sensor light nearby.
Why does my sensor light keep turning on?
Usually it's picking up passing cars, trees or pets. Lower the sensitivity, shorten the range or re-aim the sensor.
Are solar security lights any good?
They're handy where there's no power, but wired LED sensor lights are brighter and more reliable night after night.
No power nearby? See our solar lights. Send us your room size or a photo and we'll point you in the right direction. Call 02 4040 0599 or email sales@alstra.lighting.
