Ways To Improve Your Shop’s Security

If you’re a shop or small business owner, you want to ensure your property is kept as secure as possible. It’s all about minimising potential risks, such as theft, vandalism or other potential dangers. If you’re worried your premises aren't as safe as they could be, maybe it’s time to consider a few ways to improve your shop's security.

Here are some ways to keep your business safe.

CCTV Installation

Having CCTV on-site is essential to keeping your business safe. If your premises have been robbed or vandalised, you can check the CCTV to find out what exactly happened. You can then turn this footage over to the police, where they will hopefully catch the offender.

CCTV is also a great deterrent. Many petty thieves will automatically avoid trying to steal from a property that has CCTV installed, for fear of being caught. Try putting a large warning in your window or near your door informing customers of the CCTV at your property.

Security Roller Shutters

A lot of robberies and vandalism usually occurs while a business is closed when nobody is on the premises. That’s why you need to ensure your shop is safe at all hours of the day and night. A great way to do this is with security roller shutters. They’re simple to lock and unlock, maximising the security of your property during the night. They’re great if you have a glass shopfront that a vandal or thief could easily break and gain access to your business.

Doors

Automatic doors are a great way of providing security to your business. They allow you to control the flow of traffic in your shop and keep people out when you don’t want them there. If you have plenty of valuables on-site, such as a jewellery store, you may want to use an automatic door to only let reliable customers inside, or those with an appointment.

If your business has a back door, you may benefit from a keypad or swipe card system installed on it. This ensures only employees and other trusted individuals can get into your store through the back. You may also want this on a door that separates the shop floor from the back of your business.
