Loosey goosey security?

Jewelry store takes mid to high end to the vault every night, in trays that can be replaced quickly in am.
Many high end items never leave the vault.
There are designated item trays in the cases of low end items. If you do not vault High end trays, those items, your insurance policy does not cover those items. Those items not requiring removal are covered and usually amount to deductable. Most smash and grab empty the cases, taking more than a few minutes. Cameras have more time to record, giving more time for alarm companies.
To acquire insurance, you must have a vault, and hold a percentage of goods, and stored when store is not open. A alarm system in place with a silent alarm, and Audible that can be set.
If you are an independent store, contents. holds all of your wealth. You use as much security as you have available to you. While leaving the easly replaced inexpensive in cases.
My family owns 3 multi generation high end jewelry stores. A smash and grab during closing hours is not their worry.
The fear come when it happens during business hours.
