Backyard Motion Sensor Security Lighting

Secure your home from the backyard

Yard lighting makes a tremendous difference in summertime relaxation around the lawn, but it can also be a great safety precaution too. Motion sensors that snap on the minute you walk into the yard add a level of security and safety to your back yard that’s hard to beat. Increasing the amount of lighting in your yard at night will reduce your risk of break-ins tremendously. Intruders can’t hide in the light.

How can motion sensor lighting help?

Time dawn and dusk motion sensor lighting around your back yard
Use Palm Pad Remotes to brighten dim and control your outdoor lights
Use motion sensors as a safety feature when you’re asleep at night
Light the area around your pool for swimming safety

Safety Precautions

Don’t fumble around in your cluttered yard for the light switch! Stubbed toes hurt! As long as you have X10 motion sensor lighting in the back yard you’ll never risk getting hurt while looking for the light switch again. Motion sensors see you walking up to the house and flip on your lights as soon as you’re looking for the keyhole. With easy, light-controlling remotes that let you comfortably adjust lighting from over 100 feet away you won’t even have to wait for the motion sensor either.

Security Measures

Fact: Adequate lighting around a physical structure can significantly reduce the risk of crime.

Next to owning a home security system, lighting timers are by far one of the most popular ways consumers secure their home against burglaries. Timing your indoor and outdoor lighting to turn on at specific times - and in the right locations - will greatly reduce your risk of break-ins and attacks.

Marko's Tips:

I get lifetime coverage for all my X10 products by always purchasing the longest extended warranty. When you first make a purchase you get multiple warranty choices, but if you never buy a warranty your choices stop with the free one-year warranty. That’s not the case with the extended warranty. If you buy an extended warranty, you’re free to buy another one after coverage has lapsed. Get it for life!

Marko's Tips:

What I do for best results is place motion sensors at a 45 degree angle to whatever pathway I’d like to monitor. Sounds counterintuitive, I know, but it makes your motion sensors act faster.

Here’s why: motion sensors are better at seeing objects passing across them than coming toward them.

So if you aim the sensor directly up a walkway, motion will be more difficult to detect because the approaching intruder is walking directly up to the sensor instead of passing across the viewing field. Try to create a scene where the intruder walks past the motion sensor, not up to it.

Marko's Tips:

It’s a good idea to set up dawn and dusk detection on the ActiveEye motion sensor that controls safety and security lighting around your property. The Passive Infrared motion sensor will tell your lights when it’s getting dark outside and automatically turn them on and then back on again when it gets light.

Here’s how it works.
When the photo cell detects the change from light to dark, the ActiveEye motion sensor sends an On command to your lights. When it detects the change from dark to light, it sends an Off command. And because the lights set to the dawn/dusk function are at a different frequency than your motion activated lights, they won’t be disturbed by movement. Unless your motion sensor “thinks” its dawn or dusk when it isn’t.

NexTag Review Date: Apr 2, 2006 Rated by: stol "I've purchased a variety of products from X10 building my dream automation and security system. Each and EVERY ORDER is delivered so fast I am always surprised it gets here so soon. One time I called customer service to ask a question about my order and they not only knew the answers without having to put me on hold to "check with my supervisor," they answered me immediately AND they even looked up any upcoming or recent sales to see if they could save me any more money on my order. It was awesome! I ended up getting my order changed to include a free item included in a new ad starting the next day. I was told I would have got it anyway since my order was shipping the day it was offered. That's nice to know and overall X10 has been awesome to buy from. I really like the products, the X10 website has all the info on everything there, the staff know all the answers and are more than helpful and with so many deals and packages to choose from they always know the best one for your needs. I trust X10 to give me the best deals and to sell me just what I need, not a package of stuff I won't use some of. Some companies make you buy a whole package just to get one of the parts you want knowing the other stuff is useless to you. Not at X10! They let you build your own packages if that's what you need! Thanks Stol"
