WElcome to a 1987 Steven Wright routine!

The real reason is that when the store is being set up - not yet opened - there is inventory and equipment inside that needs to be protected.  Also, in the event of emergencies the store may need to be locked down.  If one ever goes out of business, they need to secure the closing inventory.
