When it comes to securing residential, commercial and industrial spaces, outdoor security lighting plays a critical role in ensuring safety and visibility. However, traditional security lighting systems often come with high energy costs, creating a dilemma for property owners who want both optimal security and efficiency. At AMP® Lighting, our AMP SECURE™ line of outdoor security lighting solutions is designed to offer energy efficiency without compromising on performance, helping businesses reduce operational costs while enhancing safety.
Why Energy Efficiency Matters in Security Lighting
Energy-efficient outdoor security lighting is essential for several reasons:
- Cost Savings: Energy-efficient fixtures, such as LED luminaires, consume significantly less electricity compared to traditional lighting systems. By reducing energy consumption, businesses can lower their utility bills and achieve long-term savings.
- Environmental Impact: Traditional security lighting solutions often rely on inefficient bulbs that consume more energy and produce higher carbon emissions. AMP SECURE™ offers sustainable options, helping businesses reduce their carbon footprint while meeting green building standards.
- Enhanced Performance: AMP SECURE™ fixtures use advanced LED technology, ensuring optimal brightness and consistent light output while consuming less power. This not only enhances the safety of outdoor spaces but also increases the lifespan of the fixtures, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
AMP SECURE™: The Ultimate Solution for Energy-Efficient Security Lighting
The AMP SECURE™ line of universal voltage outdoor lighting products is engineered to combine energy efficiency with high performance. Our security lighting solutions are designed with the following features to maximize efficiency:
- LED Technology: All AMP SECURE™ luminaires utilize high-performance LEDs that deliver bright, consistent illumination while using a fraction of the energy compared to traditional HID or halogen lights. LED technology ensures that your property is well-lit without driving up energy costs.
- Selectable Wattage and CCT: AMP SECURE™ fixtures come with switchable wattage and Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) options, allowing for greater control over energy usage and lighting aesthetics. This flexibility enables contractors and property owners to choose the appropriate brightness and color temperature for each area, optimizing both performance and energy consumption.

- Integrated Dusk-to-Dawn Photocontrol: AMP SECURE™ fixtures are designed for automated, hands-free lighting control with integrated dusk-to-dawn photocells on all models, enhancing both safety and energy efficiency.
- Area Light: Equipped with a NEMA 3-pin twist-lock photocontrol, allowing dusk-to-dawn automation with the flexibility to replace it for other control options if needed.
- All other fixtures include an integrated photocell for dusk-to-dawn operation, supplied with both a clear cap for automated control and a black cap for manual wall switch control.
- Installation Made Easy: AMP SECURE™ fixtures are thoughtfully designed with contractors in mind, prioritizing ease and convenience for every installation. With a built-in tether that frees up hands for wiring and a bubble level installed on the mounting bracket, these fixtures allow for a smooth, single-person install.
The streamlined setup process reduces installation time and minimizes hassle on-site, giving contractors a dependable solution that simplifies their workflow and enhances efficiency. This installer-focused design ensures that AMP SECURE™ fixtures are easy to install as they are reliable.
