Lighting can improve your security situation and protect your home from becoming a target for crime.
Through crime trends we know that homes that do not have lighting outside are more of a target for criminals than homes that have good lighting.
Criminals use dark areas around homes to move around and get close to your home, knowing that there is no chance of you being able to spot them while moving in the dark.
If your home is surrounded by lighting, criminals would rather not take the risk to attempt to gain access to your home, as they do not wish to take the risk of being spotted easily.
It is important to make sure that there is no dark spots around your home, as these will be exploited.
If you believe lights could be an issue for you during the night while trying to sleep, rather get yourself heavy dark curtains, and do not risk your safety for an issue that you could sort with a good pair of curtains.
It is also important to remember that the placement of the lights is very important, as criminals tend to steal lights. We recommend that you put lighting at least 3 M from your perimeter wall as to prevent it from being within reach from your fence.
Put your safety first!
