Did you know that retail crime costs stores nearly $778,000 per every $1 billion in sales?

And retail tool displays are prime targets.

Thieves steal tools and sell them at pawn shops or for cash. Other items that are stolen frequently include TVs and electronics. Some speculate that shoplifting valuable inventory could be fueled by the growing opioid addiction problem in the U.S.

In fact, tools are such a prime target that big box retailers like Home Depot are now implementing anti-theft protocols, such as requiring in-store activation of valuable power tools.

When creating a multi-tool display-retail, you need to showcase a unique combination of a display that allows interaction with the product while at the same time being secure.

Customized point-of-purchase displays can easily do both.

We’ll look at some key elements that McIntyre Manufacturing implements into our secure tool displays and how it keeps your product—and your profits—safe.

Elements of an Effective Display

It’s important that you shouldn’t sacrifice security for functionality. Each customized display should utilize colors, graphics and lettering that reinforces your brand messaging.

Displays should also be inviting and encourage consumers to interact with your product. Studies show that when potential buyers are able to touch your product, it’s more likely to result in a sale. This is because it fosters a sense of ownership, according to the Journal of Consumer Research.

At first this may sound like a contradiction. How can you have a display that is both secure and at the same time allows consumers to touch and interact with it?

Don’t worry, we offer the following security solutions:

Security Features for Retail Tool Displays

Of course, the security features we use depend upon several factors, including the size and shape of your product. However, in general, we utilize such items as:

• Zips that allow consumers to pick up objects but eliminate the risk of shoplifting
• Battery locks on power tools
• Locking cages (for smaller products)
• Alarms
• Secure stands
• Tethers
