Retail Security Dilemmas Solved With ShopShield From Clearway

ShopShield from Clearway logo Small retail and commercial units are everywhere. At street level under city centre office blocks, peppering high streets, secondary locations, and residential shopping parades. They represent every type of commercial business: pubs and bars, coffee and sandwich shops, clothes and domestic retail, hairdressers, copy shops, florists, gyms, newsagents and small 24/7 food stores, and many more.

However, they have one thing in common, they have been impacted, one way or another, by the lockdown restrictions that continue to govern us all. Whilst some are simply surviving, a few have actually managed to thrive, but sadly, many just couldn’t hold out until the world as we knew it before Covid returns to where it was, and these once successful small businesses have been forced to close. Unfortunately, no one knows when we will feel normal again with no more regulations, face masks and social distancing. It’s an uncertain future to predict and plan for.

In the meantime, the need to secure the increasing number of vacant retail outlets remains imperative. There is nothing more depressing than a vandalised premises that looks so unappealing to any prospective new tenants wanting to view, never mind its impact on the rest of the street. Even in shopping malls and retail parks, empty units, both large and small, need protection.

No matter what it says in their lease, tenants who have run out of the wherewithal to pay their rent and their arrears, and all their usual monthly outgoings, certainly won’t be worrying about security for their abandoned shop, bar or restaurant, so the responsibility inevitably falls back on the sometimes beleaguered landlord who has his own finance issues to deal with.



And these empty units are like an open invitation to thieves, vandals, arsonists or squatters, even fly-tippers if there is an inviting forecourt or car park to dump on. Landlords can well live without all this in terms of time and further cost.
