Motion Sensor & Security Light Installation in Ottawa

Security lighting works best when the sensor sees the intended approach and the beam avoids nearby windows. Renovation1 coordinates placement; an ESA Licensed Electrical Contractor handles the electrical work.

Common questions

Positioning and the settings supported by the product may help. Site conditions determine whether adjustment or a different location is needed; complete elimination of unwanted activation is not guaranteed.

Only if explicitly included. Camera setup, Wi-Fi coverage and subscriptions are separate from the electrical lighting connection.
