Stores have a unique loss prevention problem. You must be able to keep your merchandise safe without an impeding exit from your retail establishment. All public areas must have exits for emergency egress. This has brought in the alarm and panic exit device. The function of this device is to warn of unauthorized egress. There is normally a big red sign which says alarm will sound if you go out this door. We also use this device on the rear door of the store to control what goes out the back door. Most of employee theft is dropped into the trash can and picked up later. Having a manager who is the only one with the key to the back door without the alarm going off curtails much of this employee theft. This is standard equipment on most retail stores. One of the less expensive and more reliable unit is the Detex. Detex makes a separate box that is an alarm that can be mounted to the frame, if you're not required a panic bar for that opening. For more information on what is required for loss prevention that is compatible with life safety,gives us a call or e-mail us. |
