Outdoor lighting, set up to illuminate the exterior of a home or a fence or wall surrounding the property will go a long way towards making your home less desirable as a target. A well-lit garden or outdoor area provides far fewer hiding spots and make it difficult for criminals to enter during the night time.
Not only will installing landscape lighting add a further level of security to a home, but it also provides personal safety for your family and friends. Steps or stairs, ponds and pool - all will be less of a hazard when well lighted, reducing the risk of injury.
