On larger West Malling plots the spec typically includes external perimeter beams across the driveway, dual-tech sensors in the entrance hallway and shock sensors on vulnerable ground-floor windows. The control panel is sited internally, away from any obvious break-in route. Listed West Malling frontages sometimes rule out an externally visible bell box, in which case we mount a smaller discreet sounder under the eaves and rely on internal audible warning as the primary deterrent.

The junction layout near Kings Hill means vehicles pause rather than pass through, so number-plate glare from headlights is accounted for in camera placement.
