How to Choose the Best Cash Drawer for Your Store?
Not sure which cash drawer is right for your store? Don’t worry – choosing one isn’t as hard as it sounds! Just keep these three simple tips in mind, and you’ll find the perfect fit in no time.
1. Think About Your Space & Usage
Your counter layout matters!
- Top-opening drawers work great when space is tight.
- Front-opening drawers are perfect for most setups.
If you’re running a busy supermarket, go for a sturdy metal tray that can take heavy use. For smaller shops where traffic is lighter, a lightweight plastic tray can save you money.
2. Look for Smart Features
The right features can make daily work so much easier:
- Flexible 5/8 cash slots to keep bills and coins organized
- Extra room for checks or large payments
- Quiet rails – ideal if you’re in a noise-sensitive place like a library
- Smooth nylon rollers for effortless opening and closing
- A quick-release cable so replacements are simple and fast
3. Don’t Forget Security
You’re handling cash, so security is a must. Choose a drawer with:
- A 3-position lock (locked, manual, electronic)
- An emergency release in case of power outage
- A micro-switch to monitor if the drawer is open or closed
