Home security

Making your home safe

During the winter months, it is especially prudent to ensure that your home is protected and secure. This may include outdoor and porch lighting, camera systems or simply improving your doorbell with a modern device which alerts you on your mobile device.

At MJP Electrical, we are experts are installing outdoor lighting, controlled either with a PIR (passive infrared sensor) which switches the light on automatically or via an internal switch. When there is a knock on the door, it is sensible to ensure that you can see who is calling before opening the door to strangers.

MJP Electrical are NEST Home Pro Approved installers and as such can install a range of outdoor cameras to help monitor and record any visitors, wanted or otherwise. With modern security cameras, they can be accessed from your mobile devices and can be triggered by motion, so you are alerted when someone approaches.

As always, we recommend installing cameras and good lighting to act as a deterrent to unwanted visitors. A well-lit house will not be targeted by burglars or thieves who tend to be opportunists who look for dark, unattended homes.

If you would like to increase the security of your home with additional outdoor lighting or cameras, then please contact us here at MJP Electrical and we would be delighted to provide expert advice and a competitive quotation.
