Electricians tips for buying security lights

Security lights are outside in the cold and wet. They are important to light up your drive or garden. To prevent you tripping over obstacles or walking on flowers. 

They are important for security because they let you know someone is outside your Biggleswade home.

They act as deterrent to people breaking in. Because people breaking in don't want to seen. Or the people of the house alerted by lights coming on their drive or garden.

Thieves would rather go next door where it is they have no security lights. So they can move around undetected.

I have been supplying and fitting security lights in Biggleswade for the last 25 years.

Here are a few tips for buying good security lights.

Buy security lights at your local Electrical wholesalers.

They have years of experience supplying lights. It is in their interest to supply quality lights that dont break down quickly.

Buy a light with a 3 year guarantee. 

If its built to last 3 years. It will have a better chance of lasting 5 or 10 years.

If you buy a light from your local Electrical wholesalers chances are they will still be selling the same brand for the next 3 years. 

So swapping faulty lights is hassle free.

Get a security light with a overide facility. Handy to be able to turn your light on for BBQS or working outside.

Get the right sized LED security light.

I recommend 20 watt LED security light for small areas.

A 30 watt LED security light for a standard sized garden or drive.

And a 50 watt LED security light for large gardens or wide open areas.

If you have any questions on security lights or want to book us in for a fee estimate call 01767 834024 or leave us a message on our contact form.
