Retail store "smash and grab" robberies are happening more and more often these days. Gun stores, pharmacies and jewelry stores are especially vulnerable. How do they get in? Most of the time it's through the front door or a window. According to the Pharmacists Mutual Insurance Company here are the most common ways the bad guys get in:
- Front Door or Window - 51%
- Back Door or Window - 13%
- Side Door or Window - 10%
As you can see, it makes sense to reinforce your glass doors and windows. The harder it is to get inside your business the likely you'll be a victim. Thieves usually case the store days or even weeks before breaking in. When your facility is a tough nut to crack chances are they'll choose an easier target.When you're ready to beef up security give Starmor a call.

By holding glass together under impact, you will keep the bad guys from easily getting into your store.
