Protection from theft or fire? What about general safekeeping? Each scenario has its own safe type!
ANTI-THEFT: Perhaps the most commonly requested type of safe, these are the kind that are all about the locks. The locks on anti-theft safes have been designed to be extra-secure when under duress and enforced breach by burglars who have experience at opening complex locks. Typical contents can be money, jewelry, documents and firearms. They are also good for business owners who need to keep items “safe” due to confidentiality as well as high value.
ANTI-FIRE: Anti-fire safes are defined by the added layers of protection in addition to extremely secure locks. Fire resistance safes are made to different specifications of security. Did you know than an ordinary document burns to ruin at 451°F? Most fires burn at 1300°F, which is considerably higher. So, paper documents need a much higher level of protection in the instance of a fire in an office. Heat-proof safes are popular in offices such as law firms and the like. They are designed to keep the temperature inside the safe at 350°F for different amounts of time by releasing varied concentrations of moisture into the safe. Then, the safes provide the fire protection for 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 120 minutes or more. Want to see our team?
DEPOSIT SAFES: These are perfect for businesses that handle large amounts of cash on a daily basis. They are usually affixed to the floor or are inside a hole in the floorboards.
HOME SAFES: Similar to the anti-theft and anti-fire versions, these are used in private residences. They are usually secured with combination locks that are either traditional manual types of electronic LED. They usually have very heady doors and often concealed to appear out of the view of potential intruders, sometimes behind a bookshelf, painting or built into furniture and concealed.
