Security rolling doors for cannabis dispensaries

In the cannabis industry, protecting your staff and assets is of the utmost importance. By implementing comprehensive security protocols, you can minimize the risk of theft, unauthorized access, and regulatory violations, which could result in significant financial losses, legal consequences, and damage to your business's reputation.

But protecting your facility doesn’t have to translate into an intimidating or unattractive exterior or lead to choosing an aesthetically pleasing option that doesn’t check many boxes in the security column.

Enter StoreDefender™ — the newest addition to our Defender series that is specifically engineered to protect against crowd surges and building intrusions. StoreDefender can be retrofitted into almost any opening. It is available in a variety of sizes and more than 180 powder coat colors to blend seamlessly into the building for a streamlined aesthetic. The robust, 18-gauge curtain can feature graphics, providing consistent branding by incorporating logos or simply enhancing aesthetics.

But it doesn’t just look great — it can handle whatever life throws at it, too.

Your merchandise requires high-quality security doors.

Cannabis dispensaries require high-quality rolling doors to address the unique security challenges they face due to the nature of their operations. These facilities deal with valuable products that are attractive targets for theft, making robust security measures essential. StoreDefender doors provide a physical barrier that helps deter unauthorized access and protect these businesses from potential break-ins or intrusions.

In addition, the cannabis industry mandates stringent security protocols to ensure compliance with laws and regulations. StoreDefender doors are crucial in meeting these requirements by restricting access to authorized personnel only, helping to prevent unauthorized entry and protect the controlled substances within the facility. Regulatory compliance is critical to maintaining the integrity of the business and upholding public safety standards, in addition to being just a legal obligation. 

High-quality security doors can also help protect sensitive customer information and intellectual property within cannabis establishments. These doors help maintain confidentiality and prevent unauthorized access to digital systems or databases storing valuable data by creating a secure perimeter and controlling access to restricted areas. 

 

 

Handle chaos with ease.

The StoreDefender Door features a 6-inch heavy-duty bottom bar that was tested to more than 2,500 lbs. for deflection. It also required 4,500 lbs. of force during testing to lift the entire door just 3 inches. StoreDefender features an 18-gauge curtain, tamper-resistant fasteners, and continuous wind locks that keep the curtain in place under duress and crowd pressures.

StoreDefender can provide automatic protection when combined with our AlarmGard® closing system for extra safety and security. When a building alarm or panic button is set off during an intrusion, AlarmGard gets to work, immediately closing the StoreDefender door to enhance security measures.

StoreDefender­ delivers adaptability and longevity for trying times.

StoreDefender is adaptable to many applications, whether customer-facing in the front of a store, in the back for use in shipping and receiving areas, or anywhere in between. Combined with the fact that it withstood a moderate-risk attack with three or more attackers and a few hand tools during testing, you can relax and know your facility is safer against theft, attack and crowd surges.

StoreDefender is a trusted, versatile defense to secure buildings against unanticipated attacks without compromising architectural aesthetics.

StoreDefender security doors offer a comprehensive defense for multiple areas of a cannabis facility by creating physical barriers that deter unauthorized access. Examples of these areas include:

Cultivation

A high-quality security door is essential for the cultivation area of a cannabis dispensary to help safeguard the valuable plants and sensitive operations within. Securing your cultivation area with a high-quality security door helps maintain compliance with regulations, ensures the integrity of the growing process, and safeguards the investment in plant inventory.

Docks

Protecting your dock areas with premium-grade security doors is crucial for preventing unauthorized access to incoming and outgoing shipments. By controlling access to the dock area, high-quality security doors help enhance operational efficiency, reduce the likelihood of supply chain disruptions, and safeguard inventory flow in and out of the dispensary.

Storage

Rolling doors help protect cannabis warehousing areas where you keep valuable products, inventory, and equipment. These doors offer robust physical barriers that deter unauthorized entry and safeguard the assets stored within from theft or damage.

Retail

Securing your retail area with a StoreDefender door helps protect staff, customers, and merchandise from potential risks such as theft or unauthorized access. Besides providing a visible deterrent to intruders and creating a safe environment for interactions and transactions, these doors offer a welcoming aesthetic for customers. 

Critical infrastructure

High-quality security doors are indispensable for protecting infrastructure areas within a cannabis dispensary, such as server rooms, electrical panels, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. These doors offer enhanced security measures to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive equipment and technology vital for day-to-day operations.

Upgrading your system with an AlarmGard operator enables seamless integration with your building's security infrastructure. These systems allow you to program the door to automatically close in response to alarms or power loss situations, contributing to employee and merchandise safety against potential theft or threats. Additionally, an optional onboard battery backup feature is available to prevent operational disruptions caused by power outages, enhancing the door's reliability during critical moments.

Beyond its function as a service door, the StoreDefender Door also offers the Thermiser Max® insulated option if your business requires environmental separation. This versatility allows you to address specific temperature control or noise insulation needs while maintaining robust security features. Besides choosing from a wide range of standard finishes and powder coat colors, you can add unique graphics to enhance store branding and visual appeal, creating a cohesive and professional look for your building.
