By using time-delayed pharmacy safes from American Security, Walgreens has made great efforts to combat thefts from their pharmacies. In over 30,000 stores, Walgreens has installed American Security’s time-delayed pharmacy safes which, in the event of a robbery, allow pharmacists to lock them for several minutes, allowing time for the police to arrive on the scene.

Serge Ahmad of Walgreens Security is proud of the decision to install American Security’s pharmacy safes, saying it was done with the intent of “patient safety, customer safety, and the safety of our assets–it’s a good decision.”
