Jewelers and Watchmakers
Certified security solutions for stores with high-value inventory. Intruder alarms, CCTV, fog generators and physical protection – all in accordance with insurance requirements and industry regulations.
The threat landscape for jewelers and watchmakers
Stores carrying jewellery, watches and precious metals are among the most targeted for robbery and burglary. The values are high, compact and easy to sell – making the industry a priority target for professional criminals. Insurance companies therefore set strict requirements for the level of security.
Armed robbery during opening hours
Armed robberies against jewellery stores occur regularly. Perpetrators are often well organised, act fast and use violence or threats against staff. Without proper security, employees have no protection and valuables are easily accessible.
Burglary with professional methods
Burglars targeting jewelers use advanced tools – angle grinders, hydraulic presses and thermal cutting. They go through walls, roofs and floors to bypass doors and windows. Standard alarms and ordinary locks are not sufficient.
Strict insurance requirements
Insurance companies require certified alarms, certified installation and connection to an approved alarm receiving centre (ARC). If any of this is missing, you risk claim rejection or significantly increased premiums. Requirements vary with inventory value and can change at review.
Smash-and-grab
Rapid smashing of display windows to grab valuables and disappear in seconds. Without physical protection of windows and display cases, and without fog security that activates immediately, perpetrators can take significant values.
Internal shrinkage and control
With high values in circulation, good routines for stock handling, CCTV coverage of work areas and traceability are essential. Cameras protect not only against external threats – they also provide documentation that protects employees against unwarranted suspicion.
Security across multiple stores
Chains and groups with multiple stores need a uniform security level across locations. Centralised monitoring, shared alarm policies and standardised solutions make administration easier – and ensure no store is weaker than the others.
Our solutions for jewelers and watchmakers
We deliver complete security solutions that meet insurance requirements and protect both staff and valuables. Everything is installed by certified technicians and documented in accordance with industry regulations.
Certified intruder alarm
Alarm system certified to the required grade for your inventory category – typically grade 3 or higher. Redundant signal transmission to an approved alarm receiving centre (ARC) via both IP and mobile network ensures the alarm always gets through. Magnetic contacts, motion detectors, shock sensors and tamper protection cover all vulnerable points.
CCTV with recording
High-resolution cameras cover the shop floor, storage, entrances and display windows. Recordings are stored encrypted with sufficient retention time for investigation and insurance claims. Remote viewing from mobile or PC gives you oversight even when you are not in the store.
Fog generator
During a break-in or robbery, the fog generator fills the premises with dense, harmless fog in seconds. Perpetrators lose all visibility and cannot locate the valuables. Fog security is one of the most effective measures against smash-and-grab and burglary – and is recommended by insurance companies for stores with high-value inventory.
Physical protection
Reinforced display windows, security glass, certified safes and reinforced walls, roofs and floors. Physical protection delays intruders and gives the alarm and response team time to react. We design according to certification requirements and adapt to the store layout.
Hold-up alarm and personal protection
Discreet alarm buttons that staff can activate during robbery or threatening situations. The alarm goes directly to police and the alarm station without the perpetrators noticing. Can be combined with a security airlock at the entrance that locks the doors and prevents escape.
Centralised security for chains
For groups and chains with multiple stores, we offer centralised monitoring and administration. All stores are connected to the same platform with a shared dashboard, standardised alarm policies and the ability to view cameras across locations remotely. The security manager gets full oversight from one place.
