Security Lighting
Readiness training. Guarding.Tech does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
Every site uses physical security measures such as fences, locks, alarms and lights. This lesson looks at one measure that every site needs: security lighting. Good lighting puts off criminals and helps guards and cameras see. It also makes people feel safe. Bad lighting creates shadows, glare, and wasted power.
Focus: understand which lights to use, where to put them, and how to keep them working.
