Shoplifters are continually trying to beat the system. Retailers are continually trying to beat the shoplifters, and so the cycle goes. Each time a shoplifter develops a new plan, there are new retail anti theft devices to thwart them.  Unfortunately, every time there are new tools to prevent shoplifting, shoplifters begin to find ways to defeat them.

As a result of this cycle, Alpha Security has come up with a different approach to prevent shoplifting. They developed the Alpha 3 Alarm retail anti theft devices. This is an EAS tag with an extra deterrent for shoplifting.

A 1 alarm EAS tag will create an audible alarm from the door pedestals, if a tag passes through the doors without being deactivated first. Shoplifters can tamper with the tags to defeat them, or they might risk setting off the alarm and leaving with the merchandise anyway.

An Alpha 2 Alarm takes care of half the problem. The second part of the alarm is an audible directly from the EAS tag if the tag is tampered with.

The Alpha 3 Alarm takes the first two parts and adds an audible alarm directly from the EAS tag if the tag passes through the doors without being deactivated.

No longer can shoplifters take their stolen product with them without being heard everywhere they go.

It is amazing how many different retail anti theft devices are out in the market right now. It is a blessing for retailers to be able to finally have not only EAS tag options, but also to have product specific solutions to prevent shoplifting.

That being said, just because you can get extremely high tech or extravagant with features and functions does not mean you actually need to. There is no need to be overly complicated with your retail anti theft devices if you don’t actually need to.

 Alpha Security Alpha Spider Wrap has three different levels of security needs. There is the basic line, which has a typical one-alarm functionality. The Alpha Spider Wrap is also available with the Alpha 2 Alarm and the Alpha 3 Alarm.

 Depending upon your store’s specific needs, you might not need to have the Alpha 2 Alarm or the Alpha 3 Alarm. If you have a small square footage store, or the product is up at a POS where there is an employee nearby, having the early alarm system built in might be overkill.

I am frequently asked to clarify the Alpha Security Alpha 2 Alarm and the Alpha 3 Alarm. More importantly, my clients are trying to figure out how to use these retail anti theft devices to stop shoplifting.

The Alpha 2 Alarm and the Alpha 3 Alarm are just identifiers to the technology that is found within the Alpha Security lines of retail anti theft devices. Take the CableLok for example.

A CableLok is a portable and reusable locking system to prevent shoplifting. The cable lanyard comes in three sizes: 6”, 48” and 72”.

The alarm options are as follows:

The CableLoks with the Alpha 2 Alarm provide standard EAS protection if a breech occurs. It also provides an early warning alarm if the lock is tampered with inside of the store.

The Alpha 3 Alarm CableLoks incorporate the same functionality that the Alpha 2 Alarm models do. Additionally, the third alarm is the 95 dBA self alarm if the lock and merchandise is removed from the store.

The long lasting lithium battery, flashing light and visible speaker are standard on both the Alpha 2 Alarm and Alpha 3 Alarm models.

Laundry bottles are hard plastic, curved and relatively heavy. Finding a plausible solution to prevent shoplifting has not been easy for the general merchandise retailers who carry these items. That makes it that much easier for shoplifters, mostly within the drug trade, to abscond with these expensive and largely unprotected detergent bottles.

EAS labels can be peeled off the outside, and would damage the contents if affixed to the inside. Straight pin EAS tags have nowhere to go, and puncturing the bottle would cause it to leak- spoiling the soap inside.

There are, however, some retail anti theft devices, which are, designed more for clothing security than detergent but still work surprisingly well. 
Alpha 2 Alarm and the Alpha 3 Alarm Alpha Security branded Cable Loks have a secured loop that wraps around the bottle’s handle.

The Cable Loks can utilize either the Alpha 2 Alarm or the Alpha 3 Alarm technology. Store employees will have a much better chance of being aware of the thefts before the damage can be done. The Alpha 2 Alarm will sound as the lock is tampered with. If a shoplifter doesn’t tamper with the lock to defeat it before they leave the store, the Cable Lok will stay armed. If they pass by the exit door towers and the Lok has an Alpha 3 Alarm, the lock will emit an audible alarm for up to ten minutes allowing the shoplifter to be noticed and the merchandise to be followed.

Which one you need really depends on how your store is set up and what your goals are to prevent shoplifting. If you have a large footprint or theft takes place in remote parts of the store, having an early warning when the Alpha Spider Wrap is tampered with might be a good idea. If you mostly want the visual deterrent, than the 1 Alarm Wrap is a better and more cost efficient way to go.

I often consider buying those remote tags that you can put on your remote control or your car keys. All you have to do is push a button and you hear an audible alarm or see a flashing light and you are drawn to your missing item’s location. It would be extremely handy for when I misplace my cell phone- especially when I leave it on silent! It reminds me of Alpha 2 Alarm and Alpha 3 Alarm retail anti theft devices.

The Alpha Security Alpha 2 Alarm and Alpha 3 Alarm products are alarms that are triggered when a product is being tampered with or is being stolen. Inside the store, an early warning alarm sounds when the devices are being tampered with. 

With any retail anti theft devices that use the Alpha 3 Alarm, if a shoplifter leaves the store with a product, the alarm will sound allowing you to follow the noise and retrieve your lost/-stolen merchandise. It is an important enhancement to prevent shoplifting, or more importantly, an enhancement to be able to recover your merchandise from a shoplifting attempt.

Within the Alpha Security family of products to prevent shoplifting, Alpha 2 Alarm and Alpha 3 Alarm are not actual products but rather identifiers of the technology that is utilized. Lets take a closer look at one of their retail anti theft devices- the CableLok.

A CableLok is a portable and reusable locking system. It is an alarm base with an attached lanyard that is threaded through or around the merchandise to secure it and prevent shoplifting. The cable lanyard comes in three sizes: 6”, 48” and 72”.

There are two options of alarm systems to choose from- either the Alpha 3 Alarm or the Alpha 2 Alarm.

Standard EAS protection if a breech occurs is the first part of the Alpha 2 Alarm system. The second part provides an early warning alarm if the lock is tampered with inside of the store.

The Alpha 3 Alarm incorporates those same functionalities. Additionally, the third alarm is the 95 dBA self alarm if the lock and merchandise is removed from the store. The long lasting lithium battery, flashing light and visible speaker are standard on both models of the CableLok.

So the Alpha 2 Alarm and the Alpha 3 Alarm are not the actual retail anti theft devices. They are the alarming parts of the products like the Alpha Security CableLok.
