STOP Security Plates work by deterring opportunistic theft. Our patented system is a metal warning and security plate that affixes to equipment using Very High Bond (VHB™) adhesive. They clearly mark your equipment as an obvious liability for any would-be thief. Extremely difficult to remove, STOP Security Plates provide clear warning that your machine is registered and monitored.

STOP Security Plates include the protection of a chemically-bonded tattoo beneath, stating "Stolen Property", and high-visibility stickers to deter casual “walk-away” theft. Your ability to legally transfer your equipment is unhindered, but if it is ever stolen, the prominent display of the plate or the tattoo completely eliminates illicit resale value. Even a determined thief cannot remove this tattoo and its presence is impossible to explain to potential purchasers.

The value of STOP Security Plates continues beyond deterrence and management. If equipment does go missing, each plate is marked with a unique registration number, a 24-hour toll-free recovery hotline number is on both plate and tattoo, as well as a website address. As illustrated by our many retrieval stories, these help rescue stolen or lost laptops as well as provide an easy way for finders or thieves to “do the right thing”. The result is a dramatic increase in the incidence of recovery for STOP Security Plate equipped devices.
