I love stores that have liquor bottle security in place. All of those bottle locks like soldiers in a neat little row, little plastic caps glistening in the compact fluorescent lighting. They seem to call out to the shoplifters saying, “Go ahead, I dare you to steal me”.

It’s like having a little warning label on each individual bottle. You would have to be seriously desperate to even want to try and attempt to steal a bottle with a bottle lock in it, in particular one made by Alpha Security.

Not only do the caps prevent anyone from consuming the alcohol inside the bottle, but also they work in conjunction with an EAS system to create an audible alarm if the bottle is stolen.

No bottle lock is easy to remove without the proper detachers. Even on the off chance that someone could successfully get a bottle of alcohol out the door, they still couldn’t do anything with it.

I read a Q&A one time about a customer got home and the store failed to remove the cap. There were several posts about what to do. They all added up to about the same thing. Either you break the bottle, or you take the bottle back to the store (with your receipt) to have the bottle lock removed.

Pretty efficient form of liquor bottle security, don’t you think?

Any time you have a three-day weekend, there is bound to be an influx of beer and liquor sales. With that in mind, there will also be an influx of people who don’t want to spend their money on said alcohol. So how do they supply their want? By shoplifting from your store, of course.

Every thing has its moment, it’s place in time, if you will. Liquor and their mixed drink counterparts are no different. They each hold their specific time in the spotlight. Sometimes that drink might be a seasonal drink – hot toddies in the winter, margaritas and pina coladas in the summer. Sometimes it could be a drink sensation that catches on over a matter of months or even years.

Liquor bottle security, in order to be effective, need to be able to have the same type of seasonality to it. Bottle security needs to be transitional.

That is one of the nice things about Alpha Security’s bottle locks. Once you make the initial investment in bottle locks for your liquor bottle security, there is no set application.

If you have an increase in sales and theft of tequila in the month of May, then you can focus your bottle security on tequila. Need to make a switch to rum or wines in the winter, easy. All you have to do is move the bottle locks to the area you want to focus on.

No more trying to frantically devise new and innovative controls to stop the theft in your stores. Just simply remove and reuse the locks wherever you need, whenever you need.

When you are in a retail establishment that is a high shrink area, it is easy to be distrustful of the customers coming in to shop. After a while you or your staff my just start to assume that everyone is a crook. When that mentality starts to take over, the level of customer service that everyone receives starts to go down.

When service diminishes, more than likely so do sales. Now the theft problem becomes even bigger as it rips away even more of your profit, as the sales are not compensating for the shrink losses.

One of the best ways to bring back that level of service, and redeem your dwindling sales is to employ the use of bottle locks with your bottle security.

It is very true that the squeaky wheel gets the grease. We respond to whatever is loudest, most pressing, and sometimes just the most irritating situation in front of us. All too often, it is a customer that is the squeaky wheel monopolizing our time. The complaints or sheer neediness of a demanding customer can easily draw our attention away from what we really want or should be focusing on.

Rarely are we drawn to shrink reduction strategies as a squeaky wheel. Shrink losses tend to be an underlying, looming detail that eventually we get around to. Unless we are being faced with a shoplifter in our presence, liquor bottle security takes its place on the back burner.

Bottle locks are a great form of liquor bottle security. Their ease of installation and removal simplify the process of adding bottle locks to your everyday operations. There is nothing worse than trying to add an additional task to an already full schedule of events.

Sadly, for as long as we have been amassing wealth, there have been those determined to steal that wealth. Some intentionally, others, like Jack and the Beanstalk, stumble upon those prized possessions.

I’ll be that Giant never thought twice about setting up a security system for his Golden Goose. He was lucky that the goose was able to make a commotion when it was being stolen.

Protecting your hard earned investments should not be left up to chance. There will always be people out there trying to steal your wealth, in this case your store’s inventory.

I went into my local grocery store tonight and was strangely surprised. I had just been in there a few days ago, but it seems like in that short span of time, they had managed to revamp almost the entire store.

One of the first things I noticed was there new hard liquor corral. I can only imagine what their losses have been for them to redo the store with this new set up in mind. It seems like they are trying to take the first steps toward liquor bottle security.

In the past, they had no bottle security to speak of. Bottles were just left on the shelves without any additional care or bottle security. They were ripe for the picking just the same as any other food product they were selling.

Now, it seems, liquor bottle security is moving closer to the forefront of their minds, and I do mean this literally. Now located at the very front of the store, you see a big walled in area filled with all of the hard liquor and spirits. There is also a sign stating no carts are allowed, and no one under the age of 21 can come in.

I still didn’t see any bottle locks, but I guess it is a step for them in the right direction.

Success is achieved not just by meeting the status quo; it is by going above and beyond those expectations. Anyone who has worked hard for success knows that there is always something a little bit more that can be given or done in any situation. It is really about giving it your all, and then some.

As a small business owner, you are probably no stranger to giving that “and then some” to ensure your business’s success. Long hours, detailed bookkeeping, scouring applications to find just the right employees are all just part of the daily grind.

What about your bottle security? Have you found something that gives it it’s all to make your store more profitable? If you haven’t already, try out the Alpha Security bottle locks.

A bottle lock is a cap that goes over the bottle to eliminate access to its contents. These bottle locks are also fitted with an EAS tag that will sound the alarm if a bottle goes out the door prior to the lock being removed.

They are also compact in design to allow for maximum inventory placement on the shelves. There is no need to sacrifice your visual displays for unsightly and cumbersome lock boxes. Your customers will still have their full range of access to your liquor bottles to peruse and purchase.

It sounds to me like bottle security, and then some!

Bottle locks are nothing new in the loss prevention industry.  However they haven’t really been utilized until the last decade and since that time they have become more and more commonplace as the economy has become worse and worse.  While their primary use has been liquor stores and grocery outlets looking to stem theft there is another business type that should look into use of this bottle security method.

Bars and clubs are frequently the havens of people looking to escape the grind of everyday life.  With so many people crammed into a single building it is not hard to find incidents of theft occurring at the bar.  The most common method used by those looking to score a free bottle of liquor is having one or two people in the group distract the bartender while the rest of the group reaches over the bar and swipes one or two items within reach.

While most places serving alcohol do possess camera systems they are usually only employed after the fact and are rarely observed during a bar’s business hours.  To dissuade such behavior, having a full suite of bottle locks or even using EASy Bottle locks will make such groups think twice before pulling such shenanigans.  If they find they can’t remove the locks without special tools then they have no reason to steal them.  While most bars tend to stack their liquor against the far wall of the bar that shouldn’t lead them to believe they don’t need extra bottle security.  A few extra steps will rarely stop a determined thief.

Shoplifting and Internal theft can have significant impact on your business’s potential liability. Most people tend to think of shoplifting and internal theft as a product of the apparel environment. Like the apparel environment grocery, restaurants, and bars are victims of theft. Theft of liquor is a significant factor in the overall loss of these types of companies.

Like any business, the service and grocery industries are beginning to take notice of these losses and are actively pursuing methods to prevent this activating.  Once such method that is in common usage, is employing liquor bottle security.  In the grocery industry, retailers have begun using bottle locks as a deterrent to shoplifting and to improve bottle security.  By employing a bottle lock, the retailer is able to make the theft a much more laborious task.  This prevents the opportunist shoplifter from having the chance to steal liquor.  This not only increases profit, but also creates a better environment for the honest customer.
