Security Lighting

PIR and solar security lights for entrances, paths, yards, barns, workshops and remote buildings. Compare motion-activated wall lights, high-output LED floodlights and off-grid solar lighting where mains cabling is difficult or unavailable.

Lighting type Power Installation Best suited for
MotionGuard 20W PIR Mains Qualified electrician required Entrances and smaller yards
YardGuard 50W LED Mains Qualified electrician required Larger yards and work areas
SolarGuard Pro Solar Straightforward DIY mounting Remote areas without mains power
PorchGuard Copper / Stainless Steel Mains Qualified electrician required Entrances where appearance matters

Lighting works best as one layer of a wider security plan. Pair it with off-grid 4G cameras for remote visibility or outdoor siren alarms for audible deterrence.

Should I choose PIR or permanently switched lighting?

PIR lighting activates when movement is detected and suits entrances and approaches. Permanently switched floodlighting is useful where continuous working light is required.

Do solar security lights need mains electricity?

No. A suitable solar light charges from daylight, but positioning, daylight availability and seasonal conditions remain important.
