| A motion sensor was installed, centered over the garage door. This sensor controls both lights simultaneously. Brass lamps are available with built-in sensors, but with two lamps, they would operate independently. |

The lights coming on independent of each other, would be distracting, inelegant, and would become the butt of numerous comments. Therefore, that setup would violate Scott Code! A close-up of the wiring is shown at the left. A wiring box was recessed into the fascia board over the garage. |
| This sensor turns both lights on simultaneously at 50% power at dusk. When motion is detected, the lights burn at 100% power. 6 hours after dusk, the lights will turn off automatically, but will still turn on at 100% power if motion is detected. |

After the sensor was wired, it was connected to each lamp by way of the attic. The lamps were attached to the brickwork using the mounting bracket shown at the left, with the wiring provided through the hole at the bottom of the picture. |
