Elevating Style and Security in Chic West Coast Dispensaries

December 27, 2019

As cannabis retail spaces and dispensaries become increasingly common, their aesthetic is changing. Gone are the days in which every dispensary was either a shabby, chill “hangout” or a clinical, doctor’s office-like space. Now, sophisticated and contemporary cannabis retail design spaces are becoming the norm. Clean lines, brightly lit spaces, and tastefully displayed products are what consumers want in the new world of widespread cannabis acceptance—but achieving this aesthetic comes with its own challenges.

Premium dispensaries balance elegant design with secured merchandise. This makes seamless and integrated access-control systems, like Senseon, a popular security option.

Security that Doesn’t Sacrifice Aesthetic

Security is a major concern in cannabis spaces, primarily because the valuable products and significant amounts of currency are often on hand at the shop. Many modern dispensaries use sophisticated, minimalist interior design, and owners are struggling to install security measures that will not take away from their aesthetic.

“The current trend in cannabis is on the luxe dispensary side,” says Daniel Rodriguez, head of North American sales for Senseon, “You see cannabis retail spaces that feel like an Armani boutique and have a luxury aesthetic. That’s the attraction of low-visibility security because no retail owner wants to have this beautiful, modern aesthetic ruined by a big key lock interface.”

Anyone with a background in marketing understands that the way products are displayed in recreational dispensaries has a massive impact on their popularity with customers, and by extension, their ability to generate revenue. There’s a psychological element at work— the way products are positioned, lit, and displayed can deeply affect the customer’s experience and how they perceive the product.

See all the security at work within these fixtures? No? That’s the point: The latest RFID access-control systems work within customer designs—not outside them.

Keyless Protection that Hides in Plain Sight

Senseon’s secure cabinet-level access-control system involves a keyless design. The system is developed to be installed within cabinet doors, drawers, display cases, and other areas. The award-winning locking system streamlines access, making every transaction faster and more seamless. It even provides actionable data for forensic analysis in the event of theft. Senseon systems are designed to install seamlessly into any new or existing cabinet door or drawer, ensuring total security.

Other features of Senseon software include auto relock, dual authentication capabilities, and a straightforward audit trail that makes it simple to track past access. This high-strength and low-visibility security system can withstand 250 pounds of pull force, combining the need for unobtrusiveness with the demand for fail-secure security systems. As a result, dispensaries that utilize Senseon security systems have reported high satisfaction ratings based largely on the system’s remarkable ease of use.

“Security is always a concern in terms of how valuable the merchandise is and the amount of cash on hand,” says Rodriguez, “We can add a sense of security and operational support for how merchandise and money are handled in a safe, discreet way that doesn’t take away from your retail space’s aesthetic.” In the burgeoning era of sophisticated and contemporary cannabis retail design, Senseon allows your aesthetic to shine through without sacrificing the essential security measures that protect your business. At last: style and security have reached long-awaited harmony.

Great design, service, and merchandise protection are essentials for elevated style and security. Fortunately, Senseon’s seamless and tailored access-control solutions help retailers achieve that.
