Retail Businesses Lose Billions to Shrinkage Every Year
Retail shrinkage from shoplifting, employee theft, and organized retail crime costs Ohio retailers millions annually. Modern retail security requires more than basic cameras — it demands integrated systems that prevent losses, protect staff, and provide the evidence needed for prosecutions.
DLM Installations provides Ohio retail stores, shopping centers, strip malls, and big-box locations with complete security ecosystems — from HD surveillance cameras covering every aisle and register, to video remote guarding for after-hours protection, access-controlled stock rooms, and the network cabling that powers your POS systems and inventory management.
"After DLM installed our surveillance system and remote guarding, shoplifting incidents dropped dramatically. The cameras paid for themselves within 90 days just from recovered inventory losses."
DLM Installations serves retail businesses throughout Dayton, Columbus, Cincinnati, and all of Ohio & Eastern Indiana.
