How To Ensure Reliable Security For Your Jewelry Store

04/03/2022

Running a jewelry store is daunting from a security perspective as you have products worth thousands of dollars on your shelves. Moreover, their size and volume make it easy to pilfer them. Internal risks and external threats abound, and you cannot go slack with your protective measures. While business insurance covers you to some extent, curbing theft should be a priority. You must implement a proper protocol to manage risks from employees, customers, and criminals. Here are some steps to implement for ensuring reliable security for your jewelry stores.

Have a security policy

Like any business, jewelry stores must have a stringent security policy and protocol to safeguard themselves. Work on a viable plan, document the policy, and share it with your team. You may hire an expert to help. Ensuring that employees know how to respond to unexpected threats always keeps them ahead of track. Also, include a zero-tolerance clause for employee theft to dissuade them from wrongful behavior.

Optimize store layout 

A well-planned layout of a high-value jewelry retail establishment can help you maximize the sale. Beyond the sale, it is critical to the safety of your assets. You can optimize it as a part of the loss prevention protocols for your business. Ensure that counters with the most precious items are right in the center for easy surveillance. Focusing on entry and exit points is equally crucial because these are the high-risk areas.

Employ armed guards

When dealing in costly assets like precious jewelry, you must go the extra mile with the safety of your facility. Employing armed security guards is the best option. Seeing them on-premises dissuades criminals from even attempting a break-in. You can sleep at night without worrying about your valuables when armed personnel guards your store after the closing hours. The service may cost a little, but the paybacks are immense. 

Keep an eye on customers

Not everyone who enters your store is a genuine customer. Some visitors walk-in for window shopping, while a few may have wrong intentions. But you cannot be too sure about anyone’s intent. Moreover, you cannot risk treating a genuine buyer wrongly just because you sniff a doubt. It makes sense to keep an eye on every person who steps in all the while they are here. Reliable surveillance systems help, and you can allocate monitoring duties to employees. 

Vet your employees

Customers and visitors are not the only risk factors for jewelry stores. Your employees may be the weak link, and you cannot trust them enough. Ensure that you vet every single person as a part of the hiring process. You can take a background screening service to be extra sure about employee vetting. Be selective with access, and let only trusted employees have access to valuable products. This way, you can minimize the risk of internal theft.

Protecting your stock is crucial when you deal in premium products like gems and jewelry. You must do everything to fortify security, and these simple and reliable measures cover all your needs.
