Automatic Lighting
Lighting can be a significant deterrent for burglars who certainly do not want to
be seen. It could be used to illuminate the front of the building when staff could
be at their most vulnerable leaving the building for the company car park or alternatively
entering the building early in the morning. This lighting combined with a CCTV system
could help with the Health and Safety Risk to staff.
Thieves feel more confident if
they can work under cover of darkness. External lighting may be used to deter intruders
by increasing a sense of exposure and to increase the probability of being seen and
detected.
Some outside lights have movement or infra red sensors that switch the light
on for a short time when it detects something in its range. Other systems incorporate
independent sensors sited strategically around the site that will trigger lighting
if movement is detected in particular areas. This movement could also trigger CCTV
surveillance or an external perimeter intruder alarm system.
All our detectors incorporate
a photocell, which will inhibit light operation during daylight lighting conditions.
Whether you prefer regular lighting or external lamps that automatically illuminate
and respond to outside movement, they are an effective way of providing you with
a sense of security and can also help you find your door keys rather than fumbling
around in the darkness.
