ALPHA, the global leader in high theft solutions and a division of Checkpoint Systems, Inc., announces the launch of Nano Gate™, a small gate that offers big protection against theft. Nano Gate is an innovative, flexible, small security antenna that can be easily installed in "unprotected zones" within a store where thieves can hide and attempt to remove security devices. Nano Gate works exclusively with Alpha's 3*Alarm™ technology extending their reach and enhancing their value as a robust high-theft security solution.
Nano Gate is simple to install - 6 screws and plug-n-play. With an aesthetically pleasing design, Nano Gate requires no wires, no tuning and no service contract, and comes with a battery back-up option. Nano Gate triggers Alpha's 3*Alarm technology, preventing thieves from taking retailer's high-risk merchandise into restrooms, emergency exits, elevators, fitting rooms, and any other place retailer's want to prevent the merchandise to go within the store.
Merchandise protected with Alpha's 3*Alarm™ technology alerts staff when a product is being tampered with in-store, activates an Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) alarm when unpaid merchandise is leaving the store, and starts a continuous alarming for five minutes once stolen merchandise has left the store. Most thieves end up dropping the stolen merchandise and running away.
Larry Yeager, Vice President and General Manager for Alpha, explained the value of the launch for the retail industry: "The majority of retailers do a fantastic job of protecting their stores to the best of their abilities and this has really paid dividends over the last year or so. The recent Global Retail Theft Barometer highlighted that shrinkage has begun to decline, thanks to the attention store operators are paying to the issue and the new tools available. Alpha solutions complement their efforts by providing innovative solutions to protect their high-theft high-risk merchandise."
Nano Gate is another significant addition to Alpha's rich history of innovation. Nano Gate is the first high-theft security device to provide targeted protection in specific high risk areas within a store.
