Sleep Better Knowing Your Property's Protected

You’ll finally have that peace of mind you’ve been missing. No more wondering if someone’s lurking around your property after dark or worrying about family members navigating unlit walkways and driveways.

Professional security lighting does more than just illuminate your property. It actively deters criminal activity, reduces your insurance premiums, and increases your property value while providing safe passage for everyone who visits.

The right lighting system transforms your property from a potential target into a well-protected space that criminals avoid. Motion sensors activate when needed, LED technology keeps your energy costs down, and proper placement ensures every vulnerable area gets covered.

Drasco Security Lighting Experts

We Know Texas Properties Inside Out

We’ve been serving Drasco and the surrounding Texas communities with professional electrical services that property owners actually need. We understand how rural Texas properties work and what it takes to properly secure larger lots, outbuildings, and extended driveways.

Every security lighting installation we complete gets the same attention to detail whether it’s a residential driveway or a commercial facility. We’re licensed, insured, and focused on installations that work reliably when you need them most.

You’re not getting a cookie-cutter approach here. Each property gets evaluated individually so your lighting system actually matches your specific layout and security needs.

Security Lighting Installation Process

Straightforward Installation, Professional Results

We start with a property assessment to identify vulnerable areas, high-traffic zones, and optimal placement locations for maximum coverage. This isn’t guesswork – we’re looking at sight lines, electrical access, and how you actually use your property.

Next comes the installation planning where we map out fixture locations, determine electrical requirements, and select the right LED security lights and motion sensors for each area. Everything gets planned before we start digging or running wire.

The installation itself involves running proper electrical connections, mounting weather-resistant fixtures, and configuring motion sensors and controls. We test everything thoroughly and walk you through the system operation before considering the job complete. You’ll know exactly how your new security lighting works and what to expect from it.

Everything You Need for Total Coverage

Your security lighting installation includes professional-grade LED flood lights, motion sensors calibrated for your property, weather-resistant fixtures rated for Texas conditions, and proper electrical connections that meet local codes. We’re not cutting corners on components or installation methods.

Motion sensor security lights get positioned to eliminate blind spots around entry points, driveways, walkways, and any outbuildings or storage areas. Each sensor gets adjusted for optimal sensitivity and coverage range so you’re not dealing with false triggers from small animals or wind-blown debris.

For larger properties, we often recommend a combination of motion-activated lights for high-activity areas and dusk-to-dawn lighting for perimeter security. The goal is comprehensive coverage that works efficiently and reliably without creating light pollution or unnecessarily high energy costs.

What type of security lights work best for rural Texas properties?

LED security flood lights with motion sensors are typically the most effective choice for rural Texas properties. LEDs provide bright, white light that clearly illuminates large areas while using minimal energy compared to older halogen systems. Motion sensors help conserve energy and extend fixture life while providing the element of surprise that deters intruders. For properties with livestock or frequent wildlife activity, we can adjust sensor sensitivity to reduce false activations while maintaining security coverage. The key is using commercial-grade fixtures that can handle Texas weather conditions and provide reliable operation year-round.

How much does professional security lighting installation typically cost?

Security lighting installation costs vary significantly based on your property size, the number of fixtures needed, electrical requirements, and the specific features you want. A basic residential driveway lighting setup might start around $800-1200, while comprehensive property coverage for larger lots can range from $2000-5000 or more. The investment typically pays for itself through reduced insurance premiums, increased property value, and the peace of mind that comes with proper security. We provide detailed estimates after evaluating your property so you know exactly what you’re getting and why each component is necessary for effective coverage.

Can you install security lighting if I don't have existing electrical connections?

Yes, we handle all the electrical work needed for security lighting installation, including running new circuits from your electrical panel to fixture locations. This involves trenching for underground wiring where needed, installing appropriate electrical boxes and connections, and ensuring everything meets local electrical codes. Running new electrical service is actually common for security lighting projects since optimal fixture placement rarely matches existing electrical outlets. We’re licensed to handle all electrical work, from simple connections to complete circuit installation, so you don’t need to coordinate with multiple contractors.

How do motion sensors work and will they trigger from animals?

Motion sensors detect changes in infrared heat signatures within their coverage area, which means they respond to the body heat of people and animals moving through the detection zone. We can adjust sensor sensitivity, detection range, and mounting height to minimize false triggers from small animals while maintaining security effectiveness. For properties with livestock or frequent deer activity, we typically recommend mounting sensors higher and angling them to focus on human-height movement patterns. Most quality motion sensors also have adjustable time delays and sensitivity settings that help reduce nuisance activations while ensuring they respond appropriately to actual security threats.

What's the difference between LED and traditional security lighting?

LED security lights use significantly less energy than traditional halogen or incandescent security lighting while producing brighter, whiter light that’s more effective for security purposes. LEDs typically last 15-20 times longer than traditional bulbs, which means less maintenance and replacement costs over time. They also turn on instantly at full brightness, unlike some traditional lighting that takes time to warm up. The upfront cost of LED fixtures is higher, but the energy savings and longer lifespan make them more cost-effective long-term. LED lights also generate less heat, which reduces fire risk and makes them safer for installation in enclosed fixtures.

Do I need permits for security lighting installation?

Electrical permits are typically required for security lighting installations that involve new electrical circuits or connections to your home’s electrical system. Simple fixture replacements on existing circuits usually don’t require permits, but running new wiring or installing new electrical boxes does. As a licensed electrical contractor, we handle permit applications and ensure all work meets local electrical codes and inspection requirements. The permit process protects you by ensuring the installation is done safely and correctly, and it’s often required for insurance coverage. We’ll let you know upfront if permits are needed for your specific project and handle the paperwork as part of our service.
