Ideal Security System Solutions for Tablets in Retail and in Establishments



Tablets are ubiquitous. Retailers stock and sell tablets because they are fast moving items. Tablets are also found at counters of hotels, banks and clinics as an interactive information system for clients. Being small and portable as well as expensive, tablets can be targeted by thieves if they are left lying about without any means of security to prevent attempts.


There are different ways to keep a tablet secured. Banks, restaurants, airlines, hotels and other establishments that routinely use tablets for customer interactivity can keep tablets secured in different ways. One is a purely physical method of enclosing the tablet in an enclosure with a stand. This type of tablet security display can be mounted on a counter or affixed to a wall or it can be a free-standing unit. Where tablets are used for point of sale interactivity, such establishments could benefit by the use of a swivel stand that makes it easy for customers to use the device.


Retail counters that sell tablets may approach tablet security from another perspective. The considerations would be different. A tablet can have a purely mechanical display security with a quick release grip for perfect lockdown and removal in seconds. Retailers may also opt for a sensor based tablet security device that sounds an alarm should anyone attempt to separate the two. One of the better options is a tablet stand that not only keeps the tablet on display perfectly secure but also provides a charging cable to ensure batteries do not run down. Which one to choose? A retail area where there is a rush of customers will benefit from a sensor based tablet security device. Places that are not crowded can make do with a mechanical tablet security grip. A typical mechanical tablet grip has steel grips that can be released with a special key and it will handle any tablet from 7 inch to 10 inch size. In some ways a purely mechanical anti-theft device for tablets is much better than an electronic sensor based unit because smart thieves may know how to tamper with electronics. The security device must also look good and must not turn off potential customers. A mechanical unit with quick detachable claws is perfect should a prospective buyer wish to hold and try it out.



Tablets are expensive. Theft can cause a loss to retailers and eat away their profits. Theft from banks, restaurants or similar establishments can be inconvenient and it may also result in loss of precious data. The best tablet security display provider shopsecurity.info offers a range of security devices that serve as theft deterrents and safeguard this device. A simple mechanical tablet protector is a strong deterrent and foils attempts. It does not cost much but it can save and pay for itself. If tablets are offered for sale or are used in public places then it is in the owners’ interests to ensure security of the device. Shopsecurity offers consultancy and guidance on selecting from its huge range of tablet security solutions.

Keep Your Smart Phone Safe Using Smart Phone Display Security

Smart phones are selling like hot cakes and sales will continue in this fashion for quite some time to come as people discard old phones and go in for newer, better, bigger and smarter smart phones. Smart phones can cost as low as $ 100 and there are top of the line models that cost upwards of $ 700. It is easy to slip a phone into the pocket and walk away with no one the wiser. Just a couple of pricey phones stolen in a month can eat into the profits of any retail store that, in the first place, is struggling with intense competition from online retail. Retail stores make all efforts to create attractive counters and display areas where prospective buyers can try smart phones and be convinced enough to buy. In fact, the chief reason why people buy from stores, even if prices are slightly higher, is for this reason alone. They must touch, feel and try out a product before they buy. Store owners must facilitate such demos and ensure the phones are always powered up and are available for trials. Doing this exposes them to risk of theft.


The best way to deter people from attempts to steal expensive smart phones is by using smart phone display security stands. Having security staff peering intently while a shopper tries out a product can make him feel a bit uncomfortable and he may walk out. Video surveillance is not quite effective since habitual thieves know how to boost smart phones without being caught on camera. RF tags can be rendered ineffectual by slipping the smart phone into a metal foil lined bag in which case it cannot be detected by the antenna. A display stand as security for smart phones is the best solution.

Now smart phones come in all sizes from devices with 3 inch screens to phablets with 6 inch displays. The phone security display must be chosen to fulfill more than one function:

  • It must have aesthetic appeal with an angled top to display smart phones in an attractive way to invite shoppers to try out before they buy, actually enhancing the shopping experience.
  • It must have an integral 4 way charging lead to charge just about any brand phone with any type of charging socket
  • It must be discreet and have a cable with braided metal cord to hold the smart phone securely at the back. Larger phones may be held in a claw like device. Retailers may pick stands that can hold any sized smart phones.

The Peak4W is one such beautiful stand available from shopsecurity.info that meets all these requirements.
