Frequently Asked Questions
How do motion sensor lights work?
They detect movement and turn on automatically. Turn off after a set time when movement stops. No switch needed.
Do they work in the day?
Most have a light sensor too - they only activate in the dark. During the day they stay off.
Do they need wiring?
Battery-powered ones need no wiring - just stick them up. Mains-powered need an electrician.
Where should they go?
Hallways, stairs, bathroom approach, bedside. Anywhere you walk at night. We advise on best positions.
