Shoplifters cleaning your liquor and wine out like its spring-cleaning or something? Are you loosing so much money or sanity that you wonder if it is worth it? Can’t hire any more people because your already thin margin will take too much of a hit?

First we need to figure out what your problem is. What type of shoplifting problem do you have? What is occurring in your store? Is your merchandise just disappearing? Is it being opened on site and consumed or poured off into another container? There are three levels of bottle security you should look at fully before you make your decisions that will fix the problems.

Bottle security using Checkpoint labels. Once you have a Checkpoint system in place at the doors you can consider this solution. You or your staff places a Checkpoint label on the bottles that are experiencing theft. If that bottle is concealed and the shoplifter tries to take it out of your store the Checkpoint system will detect it and alarm. Checkpoint labels come in many sizes and shapes. They are plain, have fake barcodes, are black and come in many sizes that can be printed on directly with the printer you already use to print pricing labels.

Bottle locks are the next step. The first one to consider is Steal Grip by Alpha Security. This hard tag wraps around the neck of the bottle and locks in place with a special locking mechanism. If the shoplifter attempts to steal the bottle the Checkpoint system at the doors goes into alarm. However, once a paying customer purchases the bottle the cashier simply removes the bottle lock with a special key. Bottle locks are then reused over and over.

The next level in Bottle locks is the EASy Bottle, EASy Guard and Crystal Guard also by Alpha Security. Let me also state that Alpha Security is the undisputed leader in liquor bottle security, bar none! These products such as EASy Bottle go over the top of the liquor or wine bottle. The bottle lock is locked into place and at that point a thief cannot open the bottle or steal it. If they attempt to take it out the door the Checkpoint system will also alarm. The difference between them is that EASy Bottle is the first generation. It is solid black. Crystal Guard comes in four sizes and has a clear acrylic top. You can see the cap and tax stamp. EASy Guard is the latest and greatest. It also has a clear top but its locking mechanism is even better for applying and removing. Both Crystal Guard and EASy Guard us her new S3 Detacher key from Alpha Security. This is great stuff!

Liquor bottle security has its challenges when retailers of alcoholic beverages try to stop customers from tasting, sampling, tampering or outright stealing of their products.

Retailers have tried limiting the amount of particular product’s exposure on display, locking the product in a display cabinet, and displaying it behind the counter.  Using these methods of liquor bottle security, sales suffer and liquor theft continues.

Alpha Security, an innovator in the field of merchandise security, has designed a line of bottle locks aimed at keeping merchandise in the store and intact until it’s paid for, and allowing customers to hold, touch, feel, and inspect the merchandise before purchasing – a definite plus for sales.  All are made using EAS technology and when used in conjunction with Checkpoint Security Systems equipment, will alert when the bottle lock passes out the door.  EASy Bottle locks fit over the cap of the bottle and can’t be removed without a special key that only the cashier can access.

In addition to the deterrent factor of EAS technology, the bottle lock is made so that it is almost impossible to remove without actually breaking the bottle, ruining its value for the shoplifter as it denies access to the contents inside or outside the store.

Liquor retailers and grocers who sell spirits find that the bottle lock bottle security by Alpha Security answers their liquor bottle security dilemma.  The EASy bottle allows product to be openly merchandised and accessible to the customer and still protects the merchandise from theft.  The EASy Bottle locks can be used over and over because they are removed at the point of sale and go straight to the stockroom to be used on new stock.

“A Shoplifter Only Stole A $25 Bottle From Me. I Don’t Need Bottle Security.” Guess What…He Got Much More!

That $25 bottle actually cost you a lot more in real dollars that liquor bottle security would have prevented. If your store operates on a typical 2% profit margin. That’s the margin after payroll, tax, insurance, the light bill, and any other overhead you will have to sell and additional $1,250 JUST TO BREAK EVEN ($25/.02). That’s right, the next $1250 goes for making up for the $25 bottle the shoplifter stole. The simple solution is bottle security for your sales floor.

Alpha Security has the best bottle lock products on the market. They are high quality and very easy to use. One push of a button and the bottle security is in place.

The cashier simply removes it and drops it into a basket under the cash wrap to be used again on another bottle.

If you lose $500 a week in shoplifting losses that is $26,000 per year in theft that translates to $1.3 million dollars a year in actual losses to you. No company can make money in that environment.

One of the first liquor bottle security devices that Alpha Security created is called EASy Bottle (Electronic Article Surveillance). EASy Bottle is a solid black bottle lock that comes in several sizes.

They fit on the shelf better and have a much smaller over all footprint. EASy Bottle bottle locks are so effective that they’re still available.

Liquor retailers looking to secure their profits need not look any further than EASy bottle bottle locks by Alpha Security. EASy bottle are very tough bottle locks and, while obviously displayed on the bottles, do not take away from the merchandising appearance of the bottles themselves.

As a loss prevention professional, I am responsible for protecting all merchandise inside of my assigned stores, and specifically liquor. I can only imagine how tough a job it would be to work a store without any sort of bottle lock or bottle security. Visiting stores, the liquor department or aisle is one of the first sections I inspect. My stores are all outfitted with EASy bottle bottle locks, which enhance the liquor bottle security at each store. During the visit, I always test the knowledge of store management and responsible associates on EASy bottle locks, how to install a bottle lock and what they can do to ensure a solid liquor bottle security program.

Sales, Customer service and safety are all important aspects in the liquor world. Bottle security provides an aspect to each. A bottle lock gives sales a boost by ensuring merchandise is available when the customers wants it. EASy bottle locks discourage theft and disallow the customer looking for a quick nip off the bottle. Installing a bottle lock allows the saleable merchandise to be available, outside of a locked cabinet, encouraging customer service. When bottles are locked in cabinets they become somewhat of a hassle when having to track down an employee to unlock the case and provide the sale.

I take pride in the fact that each of my stores has a strict standard of bottle security and are receptive to instruction given by me. I believe it’s because they have recognized these Alpha Security products to be beneficial to their business and their needs.

Most liquor retailers understand the need for liquor bottle security. However, many utilize bottle locks to provide the necessary level of liquor bottle security to keep their business profitable. That’s right; liquor bottle security keeps your business profitable.

Criminals looking for a quick merchandise acquisition and sell off always go for liquor. The street value is high and the merchandise is easy to sell. Thieves will often target the retailer without liquor bottle security or EASy Bottle bottle locks by Alpha Security and will ravage the business until stopped. How do you stop these types of criminals? Well you could call the police department, however, that will only work so often.

Alpha Security has been around for many years and has been offering retailers, new and old, affordable, high quality bottle security. Their new EASy Bottle bottle locks is an excellent deterrent for theft. The bottle locks are nearly impossible to remove without a key at the register. If a thief can’t open the liquor or get it out of the store without an alarm going off they won’t steal it. Bottle security is something you can’t afford to take for granted.

A grocery retailer I once worked took bottle security for granted. They knew of Alpha Security and the EASy bottle system, but chose to keep the bottle security internal. Their idea of internal bottle security included two employees trying to maintain a high sales liquor department. Of course, unless the business is willing to commit an employee to the liquor aisle the entire sales day, they don’t stand a chance of preventing theft without Alpha Security products. This point was proven one Friday evening a few summers ago. The liquor clerk had stocked some high dollar scotch on the top shelf and went away on his lunch break. About 1 hour later he returned to find an empty shelf and 12 bottles of Scotch missing. Alpha Security could have provided the appropriate security device to keep this from happening.
