Hello folks,
The scenario:
The smoke detector in the home of a person with a severe mental illness continually gets knocked off the ceiling by the individual. The detector is necessary but as quick as a replacement is fitted, it is removed by the individual.
Is there an alternative to the standard type detector that fits flush to the ceiling; in a fabricated recess maybe? It would obviously have to meet the usual standards - the detector is part of a wired-in system with a central control panel.
I have not seen/heard of anything but maybe something exists???
Thanks in advance.

Can't a cage be put around it?

The detector has probably been fitted according to a "final construction" drawing. Maybe if the detector was reto-fitted in a less obtrusive and less focal area, but still compliant, it may do the trick. Apart from that I don't know of any "ultra flush" fittings.
This situation must play havoc if you have an addressable system installed.

Talk to the suppliers or a specialist. There are other types of detectors that are placed in airstreams, effectively "sniffing" the air. These can be positioned inside tunnels basically.
