FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

Would spotlights be a good security feature to add?

Security lights are a good feature, but work best if they are lights that provide constant low level illumination rather than powerful spotlights as these tend to cast shadows. Burglars can use shadows to shield themselves while they make an assessment of the house. Think of lights in terms of effective deterrents rather than brightness. The heights lights are fitted are important too.
