Making Friends – Liquor Bottle Security

There were problems with numbers not matching up and high inventory costs. While the owner was suspicious that the manager was just inept at his job, I saw more. I saw that the manager was probably keeping secrets for a reason. I knew that this manager had a drinking problem. I think that was my first clue that we needed more bottle security in our bar.

I also know that this manager did not have a naturally dynamic personality and was always stretching to make friends. The reality was that he was giving away drinks to trying and make friends in addition to feeding his own drinking problem.

The manager was having a hard time explaining inventory and sales figures and tried to keep things under lock and key as much as possible – especially from the owner. The owner didn’t want to believe that this manager could be stealing or giving away drinks when he was working.

This was a more complicated problem than just needing to implement bottle security. This was a problem with an employee keeping detrimental secrets.

I knew that we would never really be able to provide the evidence needed to convince the owner that the manager was stealing. What I could do was change the bottle security in the bar and hope that the manager would catch on that we were hot on his trail.

So we purchased Alpha Security EASy Bottle locks and told the entire bar staff that there was a theft issue. This was just the first of many steps to block the perpetrator from stealing and we were in the process of collecting our evidence for prosecution. It scared the manager enough that he quit the next day.

Add It In – Liquor Bottle Security

My husband is a district manager for one of the smaller discount chains. Every day he comes home and tells me stories of how he stopped a shoplifter in one of his stores. Since this company sells mostly general merchandise, they don’t have a lot of security systems in place. Things have progressively gotten worse since they started selling alcohol with no Liquor bottle security.

If he were in his own store where he could call the shots, I have no doubt that he would make a different decision that would help him and the rest of his employees reduce the number of shoplifters in his stores. It has been statistically proven that the mere addition of a security system greatly reduces a store’s losses from theft within the first year. Probably sooner, I would imagine!

I really wish I could simply hand him a spec sheet for the bottle locks made by Alpha Security and tell him that the simple investment of the EASy Bottle would make a world of difference in his stores. Unfortunately, the decision is not in his hands. That is one of the downsides to working for a chain retailer. There are many other hands in the decision making pot.

For now, my husband can only continue to stop the losses as he sees them. He can document them and report them to those who make the decisions, and hope that they will see the need to do something different, and maybe add in some liquor bottle security.

Beyond Product Denial- EASy Bottle

If you are using the EASy Bottle (made by Alpha Security) for your bottle security, you might not be completely aware of all of the different ways their bottle lock prevents theft.

The most obvious is the visual deterrent that a bottle lock provides. It allows a potential shoplifter to take one look at your shelves and decide it is time to go elsewhere. They can clearly see from the doorway if you are using a bottle lock.

Were you also aware that there are little pain points under the base of the lock? OUCH! These points are meant to keep fingers away and to not even attempt at trying to disarm them. Don’t worry though; these points are far enough underneath the lock that your normal customer won’t feel them.

The Crystal Guarde lock is clear. That helps you in two ways, one it allows your customers to fully see the product. It also keeps any tax stamps easily in view in case of any state (or other) audits.

Finally, embedded in the locks are EAS tags. These tags work the same way as they do in other retail environments. They set off the alarm if someone tries to sneak out with the full bottle.

So you see that it might be more than just a single facet of these bottle locks that are preventing theft in your store and enhancing your bottle security.

Easy As Pie – Bottle Locks

If you are hearing about the EASy Bottle by Alpha Security for the first time, you might be wondering what makes their bottle locks so easy compared to other bottle locks out on the market.

There is a two-fold answer to this question. The first part is the EASy part. The EASy is a designation for the alarm that corresponds to an Electronic Article Surveillance system (or EAS). Imbedded in each bottle lock is an EAS devise. It prevents a bottle from being stolen because it would set off an audible alarm.

The second part is the literal ease of the product. The EASy Bottle by Alpha Security is a device that slides effortlessly over the top of a bottle and secures to the neck of the wine or liquor bottle. They come in a variety of sizes and styles to accommodate the different shapes and sizes of bottles.

There are several types of detachers that can be used on the bottle locks. They can be stationary, such as at a cash register stand, or they can be carried with an employee on a retractable lanyard attached to their pants pocket.

So whether you think of the bottle lock as EASy or easy you can be confident that your liquor investment will be protected and achieving great profits will be as easy as pie.

And Down We Go – Bottle Lock

I never gave liquor bottle security much thought. Up until a few years ago anyway. 

I had gone to the local grocery store after work and was wandering around doing my normal shopping.

A man had been lingering by the corner of a back aisle with a bottle of whiskey. He didn’t see me at first and proceeded to stuff the bottle down his pants! It was wrong on so many levels.

It was only then that I began to wonder about what type of Liquor bottle security was even out there. I worked in retail security and thought I knew it all. Because I didn’t work with liquor bottles, bottle security was a whole new world for me.

There are several different styles of EASy Bottle locks, which are primarily made by Alpha Security, to choose from. Each one is designed to accommodate the real customer, while deterring the thief. These bottle locks will not only work for liquor bottles, but for wine bottles as well.

If the grocery store I had visited had used this sort of bottle security, I doubt they would have lost that bottle of whisky. I suspect that this wasn’t their first incident of theft, and probably won’t be their last.

They are very clearly in need of some help from Alpha Security Bottle Locks.

Lock and Key- Bottle Locks

Have you ever gone into a liquor store and stood in the aisle for what seems to be a seriously long amount of time? Yeah, I’ll admit, I have. It is usually when I am trying to decide between a few brands of a particular type of liquor I am not completely familiar with.

It is even harder to decide when the store’s liquor bottle security is keeping the bottles behind a locked glass case.

There is no longer a need to keep the bottles behind a locked case when they are using the Alpha Security EASy Bottle locks. These bottle locks keep the liquor on the shelf when it needs to be sold. These same bottle locks also keep the contents of open bottles secured when they are being used for tasting purposes.

While most people are reasonably aware of the need for liquor bottle security, there are limits to what they will endure while shopping. Anything that impedes what they are trying to accomplish is a reason to shop in one store or to not shop there ever again.

When bottles are hidden under lock and key you and your customers fate are in the hands of your staff. If your employees are top notch and are ready to jump at the needs of every person that walks in your doors- no matter how busy you are- then keep the cases and keys.

If you realize that you and your staff have limitations to the level of service you can provide. I would suggest bottle locks for your liquor bottle security. It lets you leave the bottles on the shelf and your customers in good spirits.

Double Down- Liquor Bottle Security

Having a bottle lock on your merchandise will protect your inventory from outside theft. When you experience theft, you suffer a two-fold loss. The first loss is that of your inventory and the dollars. The second loss comes from the loss of customers that come to your store.

You see, when customers can’t find what they are looking for, they go somewhere else. When your inventory is stolen, it is not always immediately discovered missing. That means the shelf stays empty and the customers leave empty handed. There is no good way to tell how many sales are lost because customers leave due to improper inventory levels.

Bottle security is easily maintained with the use of bottle locks. Once the bottle lock is placed, it is near impossible to remove without the proper equipment. The secret to your success will literally be in your hand with the EASy Bottle S3 or hand key detacher.

The Alpha security line of bottle locks provides product denial to anyone who does not have a key or detacher.
