Security Lights

While theft from parked cars is one of the most common complaints received by police in residential communities, it is believed that only 47% of these crimes are reported. Car theft is one crime that is on the rise in the U.S. National Crime Survey data indicates that 37% of all car thefts occur right outside the victim's home. Neighborhoods with unlocked cars and poorly lit homes are an invitation for any thief. Statistics also show that most of these crimes occur under the cover of darkness.

Security lights for residential and businesses provide added protection and peace of mind for your family and your property.  Security lights are one of the safest and least expensive methods of protecting your home and property.  Review our price listing below and call us to add protection for your family and neighbors today.

Rental lighting services is available for customers that request the service.  It will be supplied individually based upon the customers request.  Rentals require a 1 year contract for service.  At the expiration of the contract year, service will be continued on a month-to-month basis until the customer notifies TPWA to stop the service and remove the light fixture.  Rental charges will be added to the customer's regular electric bill.
​

TPWA will not be responsible for maintaining rental lights on a regular basis.  It is the customer's responsibility to notify TPWA of any  problems associated with rental lights.  Once notified of problems, we will make a reasonable effort to address and correct any problems with the rental light as soon as possible during normal working hours.
