Security Lighting Installation Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

We start with a walkthrough of your property to identify vulnerable areas and optimal light placement. Dark corners, entry points, driveways, and pathways all get evaluated for security and safety needs.

Next, we design a lighting plan that provides comprehensive coverage without creating light pollution or wasting energy. Motion sensors get positioned for maximum detection while avoiding false triggers from pets or wildlife.

Installation includes all electrical work, mounting, and testing to ensure every light activates properly and provides the coverage you need. We clean up completely and walk you through the system so you know exactly how your new security lighting works.

How much does security lighting installation cost in Christoval?

Security lighting costs depend on how many lights you need and the complexity of your electrical setup. A basic system with 2-3 motion sensor LED lights typically runs $800-1,500 installed. Larger properties or homes needing electrical upgrades will cost more. We provide detailed estimates after evaluating your property so you know exactly what you’re paying for. The investment usually pays for itself through increased property value and the deterrent effect against theft or vandalism.
Quality motion sensors can be adjusted for sensitivity and detection zones to minimize false triggers. We position and calibrate sensors to detect human-sized movement while reducing activation from small animals, blowing branches, or vehicle headlights. Most modern sensors also have pet-immune settings that ignore movement below a certain size threshold. During installation, we test and adjust each sensor until it responds appropriately for your specific property conditions and wildlife patterns.
LED security lights typically last 15-20 years with normal use, much longer than traditional halogen flood lights. Since motion sensor lights only activate when needed, they experience less wear than always-on lighting. The LED bulbs themselves are rated for 50,000+ hours of operation. Most failures occur in the motion sensor components rather than the LED elements, and quality sensors usually last 10+ years. We use commercial-grade fixtures designed for outdoor use and Texas weather conditions.
Most security lighting installations require electrical permits, especially if new circuits or electrical panel upgrades are needed. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service. Tom Green County has specific requirements for outdoor electrical work, and we ensure every installation meets local codes. Permit costs are typically $50-150 depending on the scope of work. Having permitted work protects you during insurance claims and adds value when selling your property.
Most homes can accommodate security lighting additions, but older electrical systems may need upgrades. We evaluate your current electrical capacity, circuit availability, and panel condition before installation. If your electrical system can handle the additional load, we can often tie into existing circuits. Homes with outdated wiring or overloaded panels may need electrical upgrades first. We’ll identify any necessary upgrades during the initial assessment and explain your options clearly.
Security lights should be bright enough to clearly illuminate potential intruders without creating excessive glare for neighbors. Most residential security applications work well with 20-40 watt LED flood lights, equivalent to 150-300 watts of traditional lighting. The key is proper placement and beam angle rather than just brightness. Multiple strategically placed lights often work better than a few extremely bright ones. We design lighting layouts that provide comprehensive coverage while being considerate of neighboring properties and local light pollution concerns.
