Jewellers Security
Protection Is Paramount
Jewellery shops are the most targeted high street shops in Britain. With high risks and dangers every day, it is paramount that jewellers have security measures in place. Retail trading premises have many potential security weaknesses, more so than any other businesses. Employees that work at jewellery stores have to think about protecting their goods, while maintaining high levels of customer service. This could potentially lead to employees forgetting or being too busy to complete their designated duties.
Due to the design and layout of most jewellery shops there is high potential for attacks and hostage situations. There are many stories of criminals pointing weapons over the counter at staff and demanding goods. In these types of situations security is needed not just for valuables in the jewellery store but also for the protection of staff. Once a criminal knows that a certain jewellery store is vulnerable this is when it is likely that they will take action.
Security is important to employees because it keeps them safe and reduces the chance of being injured in the event of their place of work being subject to criminals. When starting up a jewellery store many risk assessments should take place to evaluate all possible outcomes of a robbery. There are many aspects that are taken into consideration when completing a risk assessment. Identifying hazards and who may be harmed is at the top of the priority list. Once security solutions are installed; hazards and dangers are significantly reduced.

Why do you need a Security System for a Jewellery Shop?
Having a security system in a jewellery shop is important. For most store owners it helps to protect both their jewelry and staff within the store. Main reasons are as follows;
- Protecting staff – When high risk situations occur there should be systems in place to protect them. Having a security system will leave criminals panicking and evacuating from the crime scene.
- Keeping goods safe – As we all know jewellery can be expensive, which is why criminals like to keep their eyes on jewellery shops. Having products being stolen is never situation that a business would like to experience. Within the jewelry industry, items can be worth £1,000’s which makes it even more devastating when items are stolen.
- Let criminals know you’re protected – Having obvious security measures in place tells anyone that if they commit an offence they more likely to be caught. This will prevent any incidences to be significantly reduced.
