If, when you have completed your risk assessment, you think that
theft (daytime) or smash and grab would be likely you need to review the locks and
alarms on the items of value.
Catalogue the items, photos and descriptions. Use the Getty museum
nomenclature system. Valuable silverware etc should be in good solid
display cases with good locks (and alarms).
Paintings should be screwed to the wall where possible using
security screws. Consider object protection systems and CCTV.
Invigilator /staff manning levels and training are also critically
important. There is a good source of advice from Re:source.
Remember much theft is opportunist. But some is professional with
art stolen to order. You need to plan for both eventualities.
