Decrease Theft With Business Security Systems

By Mark Mahaffey


If you are having a problem with inventory loss due to theft, consider a low-tech business security system idea that just might save you money. Decide which of your merchandise is the most valuable and vulnerable to being stolen, and move these items to the very middle of the store.

The purpose is to make the thief have to walk through the store and to a prominent area in order to steal the merchandise. When he realizes how risky it will be to steal from this area, he may just decide to give up his idea for theft.

It is smart to stay alert to other ideas that you can employ in order to keep your merchandise safe from crooks. You can even ask other business owners what ideas they have. Joining a security mastermind group is a good way to trade ideas back and forth, so that you can build off each other's success stories. Someone else may have an idea for security that you have not thought of. This is a great way to share.

However, you may decide that in addition to the low-tech options, you also want a higher tech business security system. A great option is an alarm system. An alarm system can be installed and programmed to notify you in the event that a burglar tries to break in. Putting alarms on your doors and windows is one way to do this.

The way this works is as follows: when a burglar opens or breaks into a door or window, the sensors send an alert to your monitoring company. There is also an alarm that will sound throughout the store itself, so that the thief can hear it.

That company can then call the police for you and have help sent to your store. You can also have security cameras set up in the store that are controlled by motion detectors. As the crook moves about, either inside or outside of your store, the cameras will turn on automatically and begin recording the activity. This may help you identify the criminal in a court of law.
