Drag the handle to move between the two halves. The right half is the finished photograph; the left is a placeholder while the matching before shot \u2014 same view, same position, taken before the system was installed \u2014 is photographed for each property.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why this page exists<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only comparison that actually proves<\/mark> anything<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

A finished photograph shows a property looking good at night. It does not show what the same property looked like the evening before the system was installed \u2014 which is the whole question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A before-and-after pair answers it: the same view, the same framing, the same camera position, with the lighting as the only variable. That is the standard we hold this page to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which is also why it is not full yet. Matched pairs have to be shot deliberately \u2014 a photograph of the dark property before work starts, and the same frame again after the night-time review. We are building the set as projects come through; the slots above are what it will hold.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
