Every layer ofretail security
Seven systems that cover a store from the front door to the stockroom. Most floors need two or three of them — the survey decides which, and in what order.

AM, RF or RFID —
in plain language
Three technologies, three different jobs. Suppliers rarely explain the difference because it usually ends in a smaller order.
| Consideration | AMAcousto-magnetic · 58 kHz | RFRadio frequency · 8.2 MHz | RFIDUHF item identification |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it answers | Is this item leaving the store unpaid? | Is this item leaving the store unpaid? | What stock do we actually have, right now? |
| How it works | The tag rings at 58 kHz after the pedestal pulses; the gate listens for the ring. | The label reflects an 8.2 MHz sweep straight back to the pedestal. | A chip returns a unique serial when a reader powers it — hundreds a second, no line of sight. |
| Detection aisle | Widest. The usual answer for entrances beyond about 1.2 m. | Narrower, but slim pedestals suit tight shopfronts. | Reader range, not a doorway spec. RFID is not primarily exit detection. |
| Metal, foil & liquid | Tolerant. Works on grocery floors where foil defeats RF. | Struggles — foil packs and liquids shield the label from the sweep. | Also attenuated; metal-mount tags cover the metallic and high-value exceptions. |
| Consumable cost | Dearer per label. Hard tags are reusable; soft labels are not. | Cheapest per label — the volume answer for apparel and FMCG. | A per-item consumable like the rest — but the same label also does your stock count, so one tagging step covers both jobs. |
| Where it usually lands | Grocery, hypermarket, footwear, mixed-merchandise floors. | Apparel, fashion, pharmacy, convenience formats. | Apparel chains, garment manufacturers, libraries and archives. |
What are you protecting?
Foil packs, tins and liquids push you toward AM. Soft goods on hangers sit happily on RF, and cost less per label to protect.
How wide is the doorway?
Anything past roughly 1.2 m of clear opening is easier to hold with AM — or with pedestals added in series across the entrance.
Is the real problem theft, or not knowing your stock?
If your stock file and your shelf routinely disagree, RFID pays back faster than another pair of pedestals ever will.
You are not locked into one family. Hybrid pedestals read both AM and RF, and a dual-function label alarms at the gate while carrying an RFID serial for the count.
Have us specify itOne store, seven layers
A working system is rarely one product. Here are the seven layers in the order they sit in a store — front door inward.
- 01
The door
Pedestals sized to the entrance and tuned on site, so the only alarm your staff hear is a real one.
EAS gates - 02
The window
Screens bright enough to read through shopfront glass, carrying this week's offer rather than last month's poster.
Digital signage - 03
The merchandise
A tag per category — hard tags on garments, labels on cartons, safers on the lines that actually go missing.
Tags & labels - 04
The till
Deactivation and detachment in one motion at every lane, so loss prevention never becomes a queue problem.
Deactivators - 05
The stockroom
RFID cycle counts in a twenty-minute walk-through, weekly, instead of a night-shift stock-take once a year.
RFID inventory - 06
The numbers
Footfall measured against transactions, so a quiet week gets diagnosed instead of guessed at.
People-counting - 07
After hours
Intrusion panels, shutter contacts and entrance screening for the sixteen hours the store is shut.
