When you work with pieces of jewelry, regardless of high end, fashion, one of a kind estate pieces, or costume, you know that you need to be extremely careful with those pieces.

 Most consumers who are looking to purchase a piece of jewelry will scrutinize every centimeter of that piece. They will hold it up to the light, turn it around in the air, and then look some more. Even the tiniest blemish will negate a potential sale.

 The last thing you want is to be trying to satisfy a customer, they finally decide to buy the jewelry and then your employee scratches or mars the jewelry in the checkout process.

 For some, this is a bigger issue for retail anti theft devices than whether or not it will prevent shoplifting. With Jewel Loks, your impeccable jewelry should remain blemish free.

 When I first saw the Jewel Loks, I worried that because they were so fool proof, they would be difficult to remove. If you have to fight with a Jewel Lok, you would run the risk of damaging your pieces.

 So I did a little research into the removal process. How simple it is! You don’t have to shake or wiggle or slide your jewelry. You delicately lay a piece on top of the detacher, and it does the work for you to easily slide the Jewel Loks off.

 All it takes is a little finesse and your jewelry is safely going home with your happy customer.

Solutions to prevent shoplifting accessories like hoop earrings are hard to come by. Hard tags are too bulky to hook onto the earring cards. Even the smaller fashion tags are bulky when used on such a small surface area. They are also not very nice to look at and detract from pristine jewelry displays.

 Soft tags, which can be embedded into the jewelry cards, are not an effective retail anti theft device. The soft tags are either torn off, or the cards themselves are discarded as a shoplifter conceals the earrings.

 Using the new Jewel Lok retail anti theft devices is the new best practice solution that has been tested in several retail stores already. What they have found is that the Jewel Lok is not only simple to use, but also simple to remove at the point of sale and has a much better success rate than its soft tag counterparts.

 There are two locking mechanisms for the Hoop Earring Jewel Loks. The go through the hole in the jewelry card, and the earring slides through the lock and the push buttons lock them securely in place.

 On a side note, the Jewel Loks are reversible so you can use them on either the right or left earring.

 To remove the locks, just place them on the detacher and push the buttons again to release. Just make sure you don’t put credit cards on the detacher as it may demagnetize the strips on the back of credit or debit cards.

For many women (and men) out there jewelry and accessories play a major part of identifying who we are as a person. Think about someone you know who never leaves the house without a signature piece of jewelry. Maybe it is a beautiful estate necklace. Perhaps it is a constant myriad of funky jewelry designed to make a bold statement. Maybe it is just a simple gold wedding band. The point is jewelry is often an extension of our personalities.

 That is why jewelry and accessories play such an important role in generating sales revenue for retailers.

 Unfortunately, for most retailers, jewelry and accessory departments are often one of the highest shrink product groups. The traditional retail anti theft devices are slowly growing obsolete.

 Having a soft tag embedded into a paper jewelry package just doesn’t cut it anymore. They don’t prevent shoplifting when the shoplifters simply remove the jewelry from their cards and toss the packaging away before they leave the store.

 Jewel Loks, on the other hand, prevent the shoplifters from removing the jewelry from the packaging. By eliminating this kind access to the product, shoplifters are thinking twice about trying to steal.

 By utilizing Jewel Loks in display and in merchandising standards, you don’t have to worry about detracting the honest consumer from their purchase. They are discrete and are designed to allow the jewelry to fit on peg hooks and rounders, like they normally do.

 Women are craving to let their personalities run free through the use of accessories; Jewel Loks allow them the means to do so.

It would seem that to keep a product out on display and to also have it impervious to theft would be two conflicting sides of the coin. In all my years of trying to prevent shoplifting, I know that using the right retail anti theft devices can allow you, as a merchandiser, to do just that.

 When you are using a product like the Jewel Lok, you create a product denial scenario. It is a basic principal of retail loss prevention. If a thief cannot get to the product they desire, they will not steal it.

 Keeping merchandise under constant supervision, or lock and key, doesn’t always make a happy shopper. So switch out your lock boxes and display cases to the Jewel Lok. The customers have a full range of access to the jewelry, and you get to keep the jewelry on the cards until it is time to purchase.

 Jewel Loks attach directly on to the jewelry, which is something that wasn’t done in the past. Before, retail anti theft devices only attached to the package or jewelry cards. This made it easy for shoplifters to separate the two parts and sneak off with the half they wanted.

 By eliminating the ease of discarding the package and the old retail anti theft devices, you create what is known as product denial.

 Your customers have access, but your shoplifters are left out in the cold with nothing left to steal.

Jewelry and accessories are a fun part of working in retail. Although it is typical to find fashion accessories in most clothing retailers, I have noticed a trend in not so traditional stores selling jewelry.

 They are mostly located up at the wrap stands for add on sales. Even more retailers are selling them during the holiday shopping season, and for retail, it is never to late to start thinking about holiday sales.

 I was working in a home fashions boutique and we would periodically get in shipments of little bracelets. Because we really had no need for retail anti theft devices (EAS) on the majority of our merchandise (hard tag a couch? Not so much.) We would see a huge issue with theft on our bracelets.

 Even at $5 or $10 dollars a pop, these little wonders sure did a number on our shrink. Because we did such a low volume of sales, these losses really added up.

 It would have been nice to have access to a great new product like the Jewel Lok. Designed to work with the existing systems, Jewel Loks are tiny little locks that (for bracelets) are like a mini padlock.

 The protective coating makes sure that the hoop does not scratch the bracelet. The detachers are also relatively small. Because of the space constraints, it would have been nice to have a system that felt like it was designed just for our needs. Exactly what the Jewel Loks are designed to do.

It is absolutely true! Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. I can’t think of a single woman out there who would not love to see a beautiful pair of diamond earrings or a diamond necklace wrapped up in a little box as a present for her.

 As a retailer who has worked with high end and middle grade diamond jewelry sales, I can tell you the conundrum we face when presented with a beautiful new piece of diamond jewelry.

 The first thing you want to do is make sure every employee working for you has seen the new piece and is completely in awe. That way they can talk up the sale to all of their clients.

 Next you want to find a great way to merchandise and display the jewelry. That is where the problem begins. Typical retail anti theft devices might work to prevent shoplifting in other areas, but not with a classy piece of jewelry like this.

 You can’t leave it unattended, so what’s a girl to do? Use the new Jewel Loks, of course.

 A Jewel Lok is a locking mechanism that is designed specifically for jewelry that needs to be mindful of presentation and preventing shoplifting.

 By using a Jewel Lok, you can then display the new diamond jewelry out in the open for all to see without worrying that the retail anti theft device will be bulky, or even worse, easy to defeat.

Oh loose jewelry, how I detest loose jewelry. It never fails that every time I walk by a spinner of loose jewelry like necklaces or bracelets, I always see a huge mess.

 Some of the price tags have been torn or ripped off. Necklaces are twisted together and bracelets never seem to fit back on to whatever peg they came from. I also see the remnants of the hang tags stuffed into odd corners of the store, presumably from shoplifters trying to defeat any retail anti theft devices (like soft tags) that may be hidden within.

 When we try to prevent shoplifting, it is very important not to compromise the visual aesthetics of a counter top display or even a display mannequin with our security tags.

 The Jewel Lok is one of the best solutions to numerous difficulties that loose jewelry presents.

 To start with, the Jewel Lok only weighs about 5 grams, which is very little weight. It won’t drag a necklace down or make a bracelet hang weird in a presentation piece.

 It is also very small in size, so it can be discreetly placed on a piece of jewelry, and no one would see it.

 The Jewel Loks are also made out of a strong metal lock, almost like a mini padlock. You would have to destroy the jewelry before you could cut or otherwise remove the Jewel Lok without the proper detachers.

 The hook is coated in plastic, so it won’t damage or scratch your product.

 While the Jewel Lok won’t reorganize my necklaces and bracelets for me, it will keep them from being stolen.

Having jewelry is an essential up selling tool within a retailer. What better way to create an add on to an outfit or a new pair of shoes than to coordinate it with some great new accessories to complete the look.

 Using normal retail anti theft devices to prevent shoplifting your accessories is not completely 100% reliable. Most of the time the EAS tags and labels are hidden inside the packaging. Often the jewelry is easy to remove from that packaging.

 For a shoplifter, it is pretty much a no brainer. Take the product off or out of the packaging. Then discard the package in a remote corner of the store, or behind the mirror of the fitting room. Exit the store with stolen jewelry.

 In those scenarios, there is little to no risk involved for the shoplifter.

 Enter the Jewel Lok. It is the latest innovation in retail anti theft devices. There are jewelry specific solutions to prevent shoplifting of your merchandise.

Prom is a magical time in a young girls high school career. There is the excitement and anticipation of being asked to go to a formal dance.  It is a more mature dinner and dance, a gateway into the “adult” world. For some, there is even the glamour of riding around in a limo for the night. It is truly a memorable night.

 Unfortunately, it can also be a very expensive night. By the time you add up the shoes and hair and dress, dinner, limo, corsages, accessories… The expenses can end up being just as memorable.

 As a retailer, it goes without saying that you are always trying to prevent shoplifting. Having the most up to date retail anti theft devices is a must to stay ahead of the game. When it comes time for Prom, employ the use of a Jewel Lok for your accessories.

 Jewel loks are designed specifically for accessories like earrings. Instead of flimsy backs with embedded soft tags that can be discarded, Jewel loks keep everything in place until purchase.

 With all of the other expenses, and the peer pressure to look your best, it is not uncommon for the pressure to get the best of an impressionable teenager. Rather than forgo an added expense like accessories, some may turn to shoplifting to supplement their pocketbook.

 Be proactive and keep your accessories under the right kind of lock and key; the Jewel Lok.
