Secure Your Tablet Investment with Theft-Resistant Locking Mounts

Posted on Jun 3rd 2013

Tablets can be an amazing business tool, with more and more companies integrating the devices into their daily operations. Apps for directions, point of sale, reminders and data management combined with the portability of the iPad and other tablets can mean greater productivity and a more user friendly experience for your team.

But once you’ve outfitted your company with tablets, the challenge is protecting that investment from damage or theft. Enter the ProClip Locking Swivel Holder. The ProClip is a versatile and secure mounting solution for vehicle or office settings that can help you overcome the challenges associated with using tablets for business operations.

We recently recommended the ProClip Locking Tablet Mounts to ChowNow as a convenient product to secure tablets in restaurants. ChowNow is an online ordering system for the foodservice industry that uses branded mobile, web and social media tools to expand restaurants’ capabilities and customer reach. ChowNow streamlines restaurants’ online ordering processes, which increases operational efficiencies, order accuracy and frequency. The entire platform is controlled by the restaurant, allowing for instantaneous changes such as menu additions, delivery areas or pricing modifications.

As part of ChowNow’s service, they provide a tablet to each restaurant which features a custom interface to manage and control online food orders. They needed a functional stand that would make the tablet easy to access and use, but that would also lock the tablet in place to prevent and deter theft.

We suggested the ProClip as the best solution for their needs. The ProClip solves three common challenges businesses have with mounting tablets:

Challenge 1: Preventing theft of tablets placed in public areas, or having to removing or hide tablets in company cars or trucks every time the driver leaves.
Solution: The ProClip mount features a theft-resistant key locking mechanism. The ProClip is also available in a standard, non-locking format.

Challenge 2: Finding a mount that is sturdy and durable enough to securely hold a tablet.
Solution: The ProClip is mounted with screws onto a wall, desk or inside a vehicle. Once bolted down, you can rest assured that it will not move or detach while driving.

Challenge 3: Angling the iPad for viewing and typing once it’s mounted.
Solution: The ProClip rotates 360 degrees to easily switch between portrait and landscape viewing. It also tilts 20 degrees so users can find the perfect viewing angle.
