Building stocked remote safety device (5,8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

smoke detector

'safety device' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'building stocked remote' is the wordplay.
'building' indicates an anagram.
'stocked'+'remote'='stockedremote'
'stockedremote' is an anagram of 'SMOKE DETECTOR'.

(Other definitions for smoke detector that I've seen before include "Kitchen safety device" , "It warns of fire" , "Precaution against fire" , "Home safety device" , "Building safety device" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
