There is no common conclusion among retailers on what constitutes the best anti-theft device. There are all kinds of tools that the retailer can use to keep shoplifting under control depending on the severity and frequency of theft, the category and price point of merchandise displayed and the actual location of the store itself. The common denominator seems to be that no matter what stop shoplifting measures the retailer takes; the shoplifter will always try to find a way to defeat it.
Convex mirrors, visible cameras, and two way mirrors are easily seen and avoided by shoplifters, as are sales people and other employees. All a shoplifter needs is a second of privacy hidden from view to conceal merchandise and be out of the store with it.
Checkpoint Systems has a theft prevention plan designed to stop shoplifting by all but the most determined shoplifters.
The retailer makes the decision as to the criteria of the merchandise to be protected. RF labels or RF security tags are attached to that merchandise and effectively ensures that a shoplifter will not steal it.
RF security labels are placed on the packaging of merchandise considered high theft. There are large selections of RF labels available from Checkpoint Security Systems that attach to the packages with adhesive or are hidden inside the merchandise so that it is not visible to the customer. If an RF label has not been deactivated by an employee and is carried out the door, an alarm will sound, alerting the staff to take action.
The Checkpoint security tags attach to apparel and ready to wear by a pin that goes through the garment in an inconspicuous place and secures the tag to the garment. The RF security tags can be removed only with a special detacher. As with the label, failure to remove the tag will result in an audible alarm at the exit.
Checkpoint systems, when combined with any RF label, can help any retailer who wants to cut his losses due to shoplifting. The presence of the Checkpoint system alone deters most shoplifters since it is visible but not intimidating at the customer entrance and the Checkpoint labels and RF security labels are extremely difficult to remove or defeat.
Used by themselves or with other retail theft prevention tools, Checkpoint systems and RF security labels will significantly decrease a retailer’s loss to customer theft.
