Motion Sensor Lights

Motion activated and photocell controlled fixtures for entries, side yards and security applications.

Home › Lighting Products › Landscape & Outdoor Lighting › Sensor Lights

Some lights should think for themselves. Sensor fixtures switch on motion or ambient light level, covering entries, side yards, alleys and service areas where light is wanted on demand and darkness the rest of the night. The range covers motion activated security heads and photocell controlled dusk to dawn fixtures.

About Our Sensor Lights

Whether you’re looking for fixtures with built-in sensors or just individual sensors, LED Spot carries a variety of styles and applications. We offer sensors with different degrees of motion detection abilities for a variety of uses.

Motion Where It Helps, Not Where It Cries Wolf

A motion light earns trust by staying dark until something matters. Mounting position and sensor aim decide that: cover the approach paths and doors, keep the detection zone off the sidewalk and the neighbor’s driveway, and set sensitivity for people rather than every passing cat.
Well placed motion lighting startles exactly once, which is the point.

Dusk to Dawn Versus Motion

Photocell fixtures run all night at steady output, right for entries and areas where constant light is the goal. Motion fixtures stay off until triggered, right for side yards and secondary areas. Many settings want both layers, modest dusk to dawn ambient with motion heads at the sensitive spots.
The same logic scales up: our commercial wall packs and area lights take photocells and sensors too.

Placement Beats Wattage

The reflex with security lighting is maximum brightness, but a blinding head at the door creates shadows everywhere else and glare that hides more than it reveals. Modest output, placed to eliminate hiding zones and aimed away from sight lines, secures a property better.

Frequently Asked Questions

Covering approach paths, doors and gates, with the detection zone aimed inside your property so passing traffic does not trigger it.

Photocells run fixtures dusk to dawn at steady output. Motion sensors keep fixtures off until movement triggers them.

Yes, and many properties should: steady ambient light at entries with motion heads covering secondary areas.

Not usually. Glare creates shadows and hides movement. Correct placement at modest output covers better.

Yes. Wall packs and area fixtures in our commercial ranges accept photocells and motion sensors as well.
