I could imagine some intermediate before flat out closing the store. For example, you could make guests wait in a reception area and ask an employee for the things they want and have that person grab them. It's slower and less discoverable and private, but you would still make sales

They have a cookie cutter business model. Unless it’s a mom and pop that customization cannot work for a chain store.
They already seem like they are locking more items behind the plastic theft guards, so the logical extreme would be to lock everything that way, at least for items that are commonly stolen.
