Overview
Security & Sensor Lighting in Morningside & SE Brisbane
Outdoor lights that turn on automatically are a simple, effective way to deter intruders from breaking into your home or business. A well-lit property is a far less appealing target, and movement-activated lighting makes it obvious when someone approaches.
Security and sensor lighting is also genuinely handy day to day — lights that come on as you arrive home in the dark make paths, driveways and entries safer to navigate. At Thomas Blake Electrical we can install sensors on pre-existing lights or fit new sensor lights around your property.
What this service covers
- Movement-activated security light installation

Common questions
How does sensor lighting help with security?
Sensor lighting turns on automatically when movement is detected, which removes the cover of darkness an intruder relies on and draws attention to anyone approaching. A property that lights up as someone nears it is a far less appealing target, so sensor lighting is a low-cost, practical security measure.
Can you add sensors to my existing outdoor lights?
Often, yes. If you already have outdoor lights in good positions, we can fit movement sensors to them so they switch on automatically rather than being left on or operated manually. We will check the existing fittings and let you know what is possible.
Where should security lights be placed?
The most useful positions are entries, paths, driveways, gates and any dark corners around the property. We will look at the layout of your home or business and recommend placements that cover the approaches without lighting up areas where it is not needed.
Can the sensor settings be adjusted?
Yes. Sensor lights can usually be adjusted for how far they detect movement and how long they stay on once triggered. We will set them up to suit your property and can fine-tune the range and timing so the lighting behaves the way you want.
Do you install security lighting for businesses?
Yes. Businesses benefit from sensor and security lighting just as homes do — it helps protect premises after hours and makes the property safer for staff arriving or leaving in the dark. We install security and sensor lighting for both homes and businesses.
