Home Safes that include Backup Keys

With the way we work dramatically changing and the majority now opting to work from home, the way in which we secure our work-related valuables, compared to domestic valuables should be considered. For example, laptops that contain sensitive information, relating to GDPR or otherwise should be secured in a laptop accommodating safe. You should also consult with your insurer as to clearly define any insurance policy specifics around fire or flooding contingencies. The good news is that we provide home safes capable of combining the necessary features for both domestic and commercial application, meaning that you shouldn't require multiple safes.

When insuring valuables, including specific items of jewellery or precious metals, your insurer is likely to ask about where and how they will be securely stored. Safes come with insurance ratings that ultimately dictate the value of their contents. A home safe won't necessarily reduce an insurance policies value, so much as be a mandatory requirement to ascertain one. Before purchasing your safe, speak with your insurance company / broker to get a clear understanding as to the policies requirements, then if you're still unsure, our customer care team are on hand to help answer any questions.

Home safes should be installed in a location out of the way of high foot traffic areas, in a location not easily discovered, such as a cupboard or wardrobe. Home safes come in both wall and floor installable varieties and, in both cases, must be secured to a solid surface, ideally concreate. Garages often have concreted floors making them ideal for safe installation, although with flats or apartments an outside facing wall is also sufficient in most cases.
