Motion Sensor Landscape Lighting
Motion-activated zones add security and convenience without running every fixture all night. We position sensors for maximum coverage with minimum false triggers.
One operator. Same person designs, installs, and maintains your system. Not a subcontractor.
Custom design. Every plan is sketched on-site for your specific property.
Clean installs. Buried cable, hidden transformers, no exposed wiring.
Where We Place Motion Sensors
- Driveway and entry approach — activates when a vehicle or person arrives
- Side yards and fence lines — perimeter coverage for less-visible areas of the property
- Rear garden and patio entry — lights the path when stepping outside after dark
- Pathway and step lighting — activates only when someone is actually walking
Integration with Your Smart System
Motion sensors can be wired into their own dedicated zone or layered into your existing zone layout. When tied to a smart controller, you get additional options: override motion sensing via the app, set sensitivity thresholds, or configure the sensor to send a notification when triggered. This turns a simple motion light into part of a broader security and awareness system.
Florida properties have high wildlife activity — raccoons, iguanas, birds, and cats can all trigger poorly positioned sensors. We account for typical local wildlife movement patterns when selecting sensor placement and sensitivity settings, so you get meaningful alerts and activations rather than constant false triggers throughout the night.
