Smart Home Security Lighting – How to Get it Just Right

Although lighting is just one element of a smart home, it plays a vital role in safety and security.

Lighting for Safety

It’s dangerous for you or a family member to return home to a darkened house. You may trip without lights on the outside. Or, it allows thieves to hide and surprise you in a not so good way.
So, consider different types of smart lighting for your home. You can get lights you turn on via a smart device. Or, choose lights that are timed, so they come on or go off based on a schedule you design.

Lighting your home for safety also means smart lights inside. Yes, there’s the convenience of smart devices like Alexa to turn on the lights. But you can also get motion sensor lights to make
it easier for children and the elderly.

Lighting for Comfort

You can set up your home lights for increased comfort. Simply adjust until you reach the desired settings for each room and then save those settings.

Lighting for Security

While appropriate security lighting won’t eliminate crime, it will certainly reduce the incidences of it, especially crimes of opportunity.

One thing we’ve spoken about many times is the importance of adequate lighting to support your security cameras. Also, ensure your security company’s decals are illuminated. Criminals often think twice when they see that your home is monitored by a reputable security company.
