Make sure you have the following security lights for fall evenings.
As the days grow shorter and fall evenings set in, commercial properties face longer hours of low visibility. This shift makes outdoor lighting an essential part of keeping your business safe, secure, and welcoming for employees and customers alike. Choosing the right security lights can make a big difference in deterring crime, preventing accidents, and ensuring your property maintains a professional appearance. Here are three of the top security lights for fall evenings. Your electrician at CMI Lighting can install or update these lights if your current installations aren’t up to your standards.
Parking Lot Lighting
Parking lots are one of the most important areas to keep illuminated during the fall and winter seasons. Dark patches in parking lots can create opportunities for crime and increase the risk of accidents as people navigate their way to and from vehicles. High-quality parking lot lighting ensures that the entire area is evenly lit, eliminating blind spots and creating a safer environment. Modern LED parking lot lights are a smart choice, as they provide bright, consistent illumination while reducing energy costs.
Wall-Mounted Security Lights
Wall-mounted lights, also known as wall packs, are an excellent way to provide reliable security lighting around the perimeter of your building. These fixtures brighten entryways, walkways, and loading docks—areas that often become vulnerable during dark fall evenings. Wall-mounted security lights not only protect employees and visitors as they enter or exit the building but also deter trespassers and potential intruders by removing shadows and hiding spots. Upgrading to LED security lights for fall evenings ensures these lights remain effective and efficient throughout the season.
Motion-Sensor Floodlights
Fall is the perfect time to install or upgrade motion-sensor floodlights. These security lights provide bright illumination whenever movement is detected, instantly drawing attention to unusual activity around your property. Floodlights are especially effective for illuminating large outdoor areas such as delivery zones, alleys, or side entrances that may not require constant lighting. By activating only when needed, motion-sensor lights save energy while adding an extra layer of security.
Prepare Your Property for Darker Evenings
With shorter days and longer nights ahead, now is the time to evaluate your exterior lighting. Parking lot lights, wall-mounted security lights, and motion-sensor floodlights work together to keep your property safe, secure, and efficient during the fall season. Well-lit properties are not only safer but also more inviting to customers and employees who visit after the sun goes down.
