For luxury boutiques offering haute couture, jewellery, and watches, security and video surveillance are of utmost importance. Our solutions help to overcome many of the issues relating to the security of these “luxury locations”, as they are referred to, including: preventing theft, protecting employees, reducing the number of legal disputes, and improving the customer experience.
1. Préventing theft
Visible surveillance cameras, alarm systems, and visual monitoring of access points significantly reduce the risk of theft or damage to goods and valuables. Outside shop opening hours, cameras can also detect unauthorised entry or prowlers. Our systems can trigger deterrent audio messages or sirens as well.
2. Protecting employees
By creating a work environment that feels safe, security systems also contribute to ensuring the safety of employees, which is of fundamental value in luxury establishments. This includes: panic buttons; emergency protocols, and well-trained security personnel who can help by rapidly responding to any threat or potential incident.
3. Reducing legal disputes and fraud
Video footage serves as an essential tool for identifying illegal behaviour such as fraudulent returns or suspicious transactions at point-of-sale terminals, thus enabling luxury boutiques to reduce losses linked to such activities.
4. Improving the customer experience
For luxury retailers who have to maintain a high level of safety and security while offering their clientele a smooth and pleasant shopping experience, security measures have the added advantage of enhancing the customer experience.
Indeed, well-devised security systems and protocols can work discreetly, thereby minimising their impact on the customer’s overall shopping experience. Efficient access-point control measures can also regulate entries and exits, thus reducing customer waiting times.
Bespoke analysis of the site
The roll-out of video surveillance systems in high-end sales and entertainment venues starts with an analysis of the premises and their layout.
As part of the proposed security package, several solutions are evaluated: surveillance cameras, signalling alarms with dissuasive sirens, as well as a whole range of technological tools.
Risk areas are identified, including: entry and exit points; cash registers; safes; display counters for high-value products.
The alarm systems and cameras recommended to our clients must be able to be integrated in a harmonious way, and tailored to the boutique’s interior design. This allows the alarm systems to do their job while ensuring customers enjoy an optimal shopping experience.
The systems must provide flawless reliability to ensure the images captured by surveillance cameras can be used as effectively as possible, if and when required.
