As the number of retail dispensaries across the country continues to grow, the need for innovative security systems becomes more paramount. Various factors, such as the cash-only nature of the business, mean dispensaries require more security than other retail establishments. In addition to security guards, cameras and alarm systems, the layout and storage of products within dispensaries is of the utmost importance. 

With recent developments in cabinet-level access control, it is easier than ever to find a system that meets your security needs without requiring special cabinetry, bulky locks or unsightly keypads. Read on to learn more about how these new systems can better protect your products, employees and customers. 

Integrate Into New or Existing Cabinetry

Valuable products need to be secured by an innovative security system, which must include secure cabinets with reliable locks. As an owner or manager of a retail dispensary, you likely invested time and resources into selecting cabinetry that meets your business needs. When considering your options for cabinet-level security, choosing a system that can be easily integrated into your existing cabinetry, such as Senseon Plus, will save you both time and money without compromising safety. 

Senseon Plus can be installed seamlessly into new or existing fixtures, ensuring total security.

Simplified Key Management

Locking your cabinets is the easiest way to keep your products safe but outdated key management systems can slow down productivity and delay customer transactions. Thankfully, new keyless security systems like those provided by Senseon make that issue obsolete. With keyless security, you can manage access down to each individual door or drawer. As opposed to physical keys, which can be copied or lost, employees use an RFID-enabled device to open the cabinets they are authorized to access. If they have not been granted access, the cabinet will remain locked. 

Streamline operations with tamper-proof security that eliminates the use of traditional locks and keys.

With keyless systems, administrators can add/edit/delete users privileges within minutes. If an employee leaves, for example, administrators can change their access remotely in order to ensure that employee no longer has access, better securing your business. As an added protection measure, there is a dual authorization option to secure your most valuable inventory. Two authorized users must present valid credentials to gain access to cabinets with dual authorization.

Discrete Design

In the era of sophisticated and modern retail design, discrete cabinet-level access control systems allow your aesthetic to shine through without sacrificing the essential security measures that protect your dispensary. Using a discrete system will also help customers focus on your products as opposed to the bulky locks and keypads typical of less innovative security systems. 

An added benefit of discrete systems is that their undetectability means it is difficult for others to know where high-value inventory is stored, keeping it better protected from would-be thieves. With a discrete cabinet-level access control system like Senseon Plus, your products will stay concealed and protected without altering your carefully crafted retail design. 

Control at Your Fingertips

Senseon Plus combines award-winning physical security with intelligent business data, giving dispensary owners and managers more control over their in-store security. All systems come with customizable automatic re-locking to keep your product safe from accidents and include alarms that alert you if a cabinet is left open. 

When doing your daily inventory, Senseon Plus is a game changer by tracking metrics such as employee activity, cabinet access and unauthorized opening attempts. If you notice any inconsistencies with the product in a particular drawer at the end of the night, the system’s innovative audit trail will provide you information on who accessed that drawer and how many times it was opened. This information can also be used in the event that your business must conduct an internal audit for an investigation. 

Customize your Senseon Plus software dashboard to show the data most relevant to your operations.

For added convenience, the software uses a secure, cloud-based platform, which means you can access your information from anywhere in the world. All of this information is displayed in easy-to-read charts and graphs instead of clunky spreadsheets.

Keeping your dispensary safe and secure is an ever-changing and always evolving necessity. Senseon Plus helps make your life easier and your business safer with smart technology that works with your existing infrastructure — no special cabinets, clunky locks or unsightly keypads required.
