What is retail security?
When it comes to anti-theft devices, let’s first talk about retail security.With the multiple changes in the world structure and economic instability,more and more unemployed people have appeared, and thus more and more thieves have appeared. This is a very headache for retail store owners. Fortunately,this article can help with these headaches. Here, we explore what retail security is and what anti-theft products are available.Retail security refers to the actions retailers take to keep shoppers and colleagues safe and reduce the risk of theft. Strategies to achieve this include installing CCTV cameras, employing retail security guards and implementing a variety of anti-theft devices proven to reduce the risk of theft. Hiring security guards is a very costly matter.
Except for large shopping malls, generally small retail stores or individual grocery stores will not choose to hire security guards. Installing CCTV cameras is a necessity for every shop. However, despite the installation of cameras,thieves will still find ways to steal. Therefore,we need to attach powerful anti-theft devices to the products so that thieves cannot steal the products smoothly.
Introduction to anti-theft devices used in retail security
1.Simple and convenient anti-theft device
Simple and convenient anti-theft devices generally include loop mini alarms, pull out boxes, and self-alarm tags, etc. These anti-theft devices have batteries inside and can be used anywhere, anytime, and are not restricted by power supply.
- Loop mini alarms
The loop mini alarm system is a safety device connected to a product with a loop. The device contain batteries and the sticker of the device can be replaced.The wire of the loop alarm device is spring-based. The standard maximum stretch length can reach 1.5 meters, and longer lengths can also be customized according to the needs of the merchant.
- Pull out boxes
The pull out box is another simple anti-theft device that is easy to use. Unlike the loop anti-theft device, the pull box can be retracted back into the box when not in use, and the length of the pulled wire can be controlled at will.The wire inside the pull box is a steel wire rope, which will be more durable and less likely to be damaged.
- Self-alarm tags
The self-alarm tag is a special tag in the EAS anti-theft system. In addition to being used with the EAS system, it can also alarm itself. It contains a battery.When the tag is damaged in violation of regulations, it will sound an alarm.Self-alarm tags generally include lanyard self alarm tags and spider tags.The lanyard tag can be hung on the product, while the spider wrap tag can wrap the entire product.
2.Electronic Article Surveillance
Electronic article surveillance (EAS) is a type of system used to prevent shoplifting from retail stores, pilferage of books from libraries, or unwanted removal of properties from office buildings. EAS systems typically consist of two components: EAS antennas and EAS tags or labels. EAS tags are attached to merchandise; these tags can only be removed or deactivated by employees when the item is properly purchased or checked out. If merchandise bearing an active tag passes by an antenna installed at an entrance/exit, an alarm sounds alerting staff that unauthorized merchandise is leaving the store.Some
stores also have antennas at entrances to restrooms to deter shoppers from taking unpaid-for merchandise into the restroom where they could remove the tags.
EAS systems usually consist of EAS security tags and tag removers and EAS detection doors.
- EAS security tags
EAS security tags are generally divided into security hard tags and security soft labels. Hard tags can be recycled, while soft labels are single-use products.
- EAS tag removers
Security hard tags with ordinary magnetic bar generally use magnetic tag removers to open, and some hard tags like super tags use handheld detacher with hooks to open.While soft labels use a specially corresponding decoder. Once the soft sticker is decoded, it cannot be used again.
- EAS detection system
The EAS detection system is an anti-theft access control placed at the entrance of a retail store. It can be divided into AM system, RF system and EM system. It is used with tags to provide anti-theft security for retail stores.
3.Security display
The security display series generally refers to the security and anti-theft of electronic products, including mobile phone anti-theft security display, tablet anti-theft security display, razor santi-theft security display, earphone anti-theft security display, camera anti-theft security display, etc.When a thief wants to
remove the protected electronic product from the anti-theft bracket, the security display will trigger an alarm.
There are generally two forms of anti-theft for electronic products, one is independent anti-theft, and the other is centralized anti-theft. Independent anti-theft means that one anti-theft device can only provide anti-theft security display for one product, while centralized anti-theft means that one control host can connect multiple electronic products at the same time for anti-theft.
- Standalone display alarm system
Standalone display alarm system can not only play the role of display, but also play the role of anti-theft alarm. The alarm is activated by a separately available remote control. Security display alarm can be activated using one remote control. The anti-theft device uses industrial double-sided sticker to paste on the phone and table. The sticker can be replaced. Standalone display alarm systems are widely used in the retail industry to allow customers to try out smartphones without the risk of theft.
Additionally, they are perfect for displaying the electronic product itself at trade shows, as well as for corporate presentations or showcasing software or apps.
- Centralized anti-theft device
Centralized anti-theft means that a host controller can be connected to multiple brackets to display electronic products. Multi-port hosts can be divided into 2-port hosts, 4-port hosts, 6-port hosts, 8-port hosts, and 10-port hosts. The number of display products also corresponds to the number of host ports, and if more than one product is placed on a display table, it is best to use centralized anti-theft, because centralized anti-theft can connect different products at the same time for anti-theft.
