Motion sensors can control lights, detect occupancy or form part of a smart-security setup. The installation depends on the device purpose, viewing or detection area and how the sensor is powered.
NY-GoodHome accepts motion-sensor installation requests in Brooklyn and New York City. Call (223) 226-1828 with the device model and intended location.
Lighting, Occupancy or Security Sensor?
A wall-switch occupancy sensor is different from a battery smart sensor or a motion detector built into an exterior light. Each has its own coverage pattern, power source and control logic.
Choose the page based on the actual device rather than the word “motion.”
Placement and Coverage
Sensors need a clear relationship to the area they monitor. Corners, doors, furniture and mounting height can affect what the product sees.
Manufacturer coverage guidance should be used instead of promising perfect detection from any location.
Power and Wiring
Battery and low-voltage devices can be closer to product setup. Line-voltage occupancy switches and hardwired exterior motion lights require electrical scope.
If the same project also includes Outdoor Lighting Installation or Light Switch & Dimmer Installation & Repair, mention those needs up front so the work can be coordinated without mixing the scopes.
