Looking to improve your home security in Dorset? In this recent project, we carried out a full floodlight upgrade and CCTV installation for a residential property in Broadstone, Poole. The work included upgrading old lighting, simplifying the setup, and introducing app-connected smart security devices for a safer, more efficient system.
Why Replace Your Floodlights?
The original setup at this property featured dated halogen floodlights, motion sensors, and a standalone day/night auto programmer. Over time, the system had become unreliable and inefficient. As you can see in the photos (gallery below), some units had suffered water damage, rust and poor connection issues.
By upgrading to modern LED floodlights with microwave sensors and floodlight cameras, the homeowner now benefits from:
- Better visibility at night
- Reliable motion detection
- Energy-efficient LED technology
- Integrated smart security with mobile app access
We also removed the redundant auto programmer and replaced it with 2 x unswitched fused spurs for a neater, safer electrical setup.

What is a Floodlight Camera?
A floodlight camera is a motion-activated security light with a built-in camera and microphone. It’s designed to illuminate the area while recording activity. We fitted 3 x floodlight cameras across key locations of the home, all connected to the homeowner’s phone.
These units:
- Provide live HD footage
- Offer motion alerts to your device
- Feature two-way audio
- Deter intruders with visible lighting and alerts
Additional Upgrades on This Job
In addition to the external security upgrades, we also:
- Installed a new Texecom Elite 24 intruder alarm with SmartCom module for mobile control
- Fitted a Ring Video Doorbell Plus, giving the homeowner full visibility and communication at the front door
This combination of systems means the client can monitor their entire property from anywhere in the world, using intuitive apps from their phone or tablet.
