A customer who picks up a phone is already halfway to buying it. That is why demo devices on an open display matter so much. GRiPZO makes that open display possible without leaving your devices unprotected. Our mechanical mounts lock smartphones, tablets and smartwatches on the display, while customers use them freely and staff release them with a key in seconds.
Why customers want to touch the product
People come to a store to see and feel what they cannot online. How heavy is the phone? How does the screen look in real light? How fast is the camera? A display where they can answer these questions themselves invites them to stay longer and look further.
When devices are behind glass or replaced by dummies, that experience disappears. The customer has to ask for help first, and many will not bother.
Security that customers hardly notice
Cables and loud alarms send a message of distrust. They limit how far customers can move the device and go off at the wrong moments. A GRiPZO mount works differently. It holds the device with adjustable steel grips and a mechanical lock. The customer can pick it up and use it naturally, while the device stays on the display.
For the customer, it simply feels like a device they are allowed to try. For you, it means the device is released with a key and cannot simply be lifted off the display.
Staff can step in at the right moment
When a customer is seriously interested, your staff release the device with the key in seconds. That creates a natural moment to start a conversation and help the customer further. After that, the device goes back into the mount just as quickly.
Because there are no electronics, there are no false alarms and no batteries to charge. Your team can focus on customers instead of on the security system.
Tips for an inviting display
Place secured devices where customers naturally stop
Put your most popular devices at eye level and in places where customers walk past, with enough space to stand and try them.
Keep devices switched on and ready
A device with an empty battery or a locked screen is a missed chance. Make charging and checking devices part of the daily routine.
Choose the right mount per device
Use mounts that fit the device, so the screen and buttons stay easy to use. See our mounts for smartphones, tablets and smartwatches.
Frequently asked questions
Does heavy security intimidate customers?
Not with a compact mechanical mount. Customers can use the device freely, which makes them feel welcome to try it.
Is a mechanical mount as secure as an alarm?
It works differently. An alarm reacts when a theft is already happening. A mechanical mount makes taking the device harder in the first place, without needing power or maintenance.
How much work is it to manage many devices?
Very little. With the quick release, staff lock and release devices in seconds, so opening and closing the store stays quick.
