Seaside towns, all year round
Thanet’s seafront hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need security that guests barely notice: door entry with codes that can change between bookings, and cameras on entrances and car parks rather than in corridors. Its shops, bars and restaurants need cameras that deter as well as record.
Away from the seafront, business units at Manston Business Park, Eurokent in Ramsgate and around Westwood Cross need CCTV, access control and alarms that look after the site out of hours.
