Security Safes – Top Tips
Do you stop and think about how secure your valuable documents such as passport or driving license are at home from fire or burglar attack when you leave to go to work or holiday? Not many people do, we would suggest. Usually a security safe is only purchased as a result of either of these unfortunate occurrences happening.
Security safes offer you peace of mind and are a worthwhile investment in the long term, especially with identity theft on the rise. Prevent yourself from being another statistic and protect your personal details, vital documents and valuables from falling into the wrong hands.
Security safes come in all different sizes, different locking mechanisms and also offer different levels of security. It is important to remember that for the manufacturers recommended cash rating to apply you must bolt it down in accordance with the instructions.
Our helpful hints are:
- Check with your insurance company before purchasing a safe, they may require you to have a specific level of security if you want to protect cash.
- Work out what items you want to protect, for example if you wish to protect valuable paper documents, we would recommend a fire filing cabinet. Typical items which can be protected include: cash, paper documents, CD’s, DVD’s, USB memory sticks and computer back up tapes.
- Any safe that is purchased will need to be bolted down in order for the security level to apply so check where the fixing holes are situated on the safe and ensure the fixing points are suitable for bolting into.
- Check the weight of the safe before purchasing to ensure you are able to get it to the fixing sight without injuring yourself. Most heavy safes will include a professional installation by a qualified locksmith.
- Always try to allow for expansion, you will find that once you have the safe in place you will want to put more in it than you imagined.
- Consider which locking mechanism will be most suited to your requirements, key, electronic or mechanical combination.

Cash ratings explained
Cash ratings on safes that you see advertised are the recommended levels of cover from the manufacturers. Cash ratings on safes give you a good indication of the level of security that it offers, this is affected by several different factors and include things such as the thickness of the safes walls, the quality of the lock and also the protection around the lock to prevent drill attacks.
Cash ratings on safes start at £1,000 cash which means you can store up to £1,000 or up to £10,000 worth of valuables overnight and should mean that your insurance company covers you for these amounts. The amount of content cover is always the cash rating multiplied by 10, so £6,000 cash cover should give you £60,000 contents cover.
The amount of cover varies between the insurance companies or brokers and may be either higher or lower than the recommended rating. We suggest that you contact your insurance company to check that they will cover you if you have a specific high value item as they may require you to have a particular security level in order to cover the policy.
Eurograde safes or high security safes
Eurograde safes or insurance rated safes are graded on a scale between O and VI with O being the lowest and VI being the highest. The locks on these safes all have to pass a test to ensure they will resist different levels of attack as well as the safes themselves as well as the safes themselves.
Different locking mechanisms are available for Eurograde safes with key locking being the most popular. Certain cash ratings even require that the safe has dual locking mechanisms.
Security Safes Check List
Should I with my insurance company before purchasing a security safe? Yes, they may require a higher security safe depending on the items you wish to protect.
Could my insurance price go down with a security safe? Yes, your insurance company may reduce your policy.
Do I need to get my safe installed by a professional? Always look at the weight when making this decision.
Do security safes also protect against fire? Yes, some security safes also protect against fire.
Fire resistant safes
Fire safes are a type of safe which have been manufactured and designed to protect its contents from high temperatures or even actual fire.
Fire safes and fire chests are rated by the amount of time that they can withstand the extreme temperatures that a fire produces without the internal temperature rising above a level that will damage the contents. Fireproof safes range anywhere from 30 minutes up to two hours protection.
You will need to choose a suitable fire safe for the contents that you will be storing. Paper, CDs, DVDs, USB memory sticks and magnetic media all get damaged by heat at different temperatures.
