Default Night-time temperature for beardies

I am in the process of setting up a 4ft by 2ft by 2ft vivarium for some bearded dragons. We have a 100w spotlight and uv light for the daytime, just wondered if they need anything to keep the heat up at night. We have a couple of heatmats we could use if it gets cold during the winter. Will monitor the temperature at night as much as we can before we get them.

Temperatures can drop down to about 65F for a beardie. Unless your house gets colder than this then you should not need extra heat.
