Why do stores......?

Question

That are open 24 hours a day 7 days a week and 365 days a year have locks on their doors?? ( including leap years!!)

Answer 1

i do know that if a parent reports their child is missing the store will announce a code & lock all the doors.this is to try & prevent anyone with the child from leaving.

Answer 2

So if there's an emergency and they have to lock the store or if the employees needed to leave they can lock it. It's a door and most come with locks. That's an interesting question though.

Answer 3

Good question!!

But I know like Super Walmart, they are closed only on on christmas and also if they need to close down because of the power being off, I guess they need locks.

Our walmart also locks one door at night so everyone has to use the one door instead of the two doors.

Answer 4

They have locks in case of emergency. If the store gets robed they will lock the door after the robbery. The store also locks up in a natural disaster if they have to evacuate.

Answer 5

If the store was robed, they lock the doors so the bad guy cant get back in. if there was a hurricane, or tornado, you might lock your doors.... maybe they really do lock the doors when were not looking, or sleeping lol

Answer 6

Because if their is a natural disaster they have to lock the doors.

Answer 7

The doors are built that way incase of power failure and they need to close the store

Answer 8

In the event they need to close down such as a remodeling or repair or such. or maybe if they need to sell the place, the next owner might appreciate locks lol.

Answer 9

In a state of emergency all business is to be suspended. Therefor they must close any stores.

Answer 10

MAYBE IF THERE IS AN EMERGENCY, THEY CAN SHUT THE STORE DOWN.
