How to stop thieves stealing?
Hi Guys,
Basically we own a small shop, and have had few break in recently to steal cigarettes.
Although the cigarette cabinet has a shutter its made of plastic which is easily breakable.
What can we do to increase security i.e to the cabinet or elsewhere, we obviously have cctv and shop alarm but the thieves are pretty good and have got away with ease.
Any help would be truly appreciated.

Hello,
This must be so awful for you, have you thought about adding Security Shutters / Doors to the outside of the premises making it much more difficult for them to enter the property?
There are so many different types which you can have and these would be extremely difficult for any potential thief to break through.
The business I work for recently had some new shutters installed and we used a great company called Premier Electrical Services, I would definitely recommend having a look at their website.
They were extremely helpful and I'm sure if their website doesn't contain all the information you need you can give them a call.
Good Luck with everything

it shows just how dumb folk are when half of your answers think the answer is as simple as getting a gun.

If you cannot use a gun, you may have to have the entire counter area surrounded in plastic shielding - like banks and some pawn shops. It has to be the sturdy bullet proof kind.

Stakeout the building the nights that it usually happens on. Have a gun. Sneak up to the shop slowly. Call the police. Bust in there with your gun. And stop them. Say if they move they are getting pumped full of lead.
Note- the criminals can't be that smart. If they were they would know to never return. So if they've done it 2-3-4 times. They will be back. Guaranteed.
