Delivery FAQ

Where do you deliver to and what are the costs?

Standard delivery is free to most UK mainland addresses. We deliver to most areas in the UK, Republic of Ireland and Europe, although some locations and courier availability can restrict our service. We may charge a fee to deliver certain products to Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands, Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Man.

A few delivery rules!

We deliver small or lightweight items (under 60kgs) to your doorstep only. For heavy items (above 60kgs), we offer a Position Delivery service (prices indicated on product page). This includes bringing the item indoors and placing it where you'd like - as long as there's no more than one step on the delivery route. If there's lift access, this also includes basements and upper floors.

Additional charges for delivery via steps or stairs

Got more than one step? We can quote for these at the time of order. For some items, we may need to come out and conduct a free delivery survey.

Failed delivery

If we're unable to deliver, usually because of incorrect delivery instructions, we charge an additional 10% of the purchase price.

Installation FAQ

Do I need to get my safe installed?

Many safes need to be installed either on a DIY basis or by a professional, especially if it comes with pre-drilled holes. Have a look at the product info.

How much does installation cost?

Although our prices don't include installation, we do offer an optional professional installation service, which you can select at point of sale. This is usually chargeable, read the product page for more specific info. Feel free to arrange your own installation too. Just make sure you read the installation instructions included with your safe first.

Please note
To meet the manufacturer's recommended Cash Rating, your insurer may insist on the safe being installed by a qualified installer. Please check with your insurer.

What does the installation service include?

When we deliver your safe, we will bring it inside your building and bolt it to the floor for you. You can have it installed wherever you like as long as there's adequate access, and no more than one step on the delivery route.

We can also install your safe to upper or lower floors accessed via stairs, or providing there's lift access that can take the weight. But please contact us with the specific information first.

If you'd like wall installation, you must first remove the skirting board and any other obstructions. (See 'Can safes be bolted to a wall?' for more info.)

Can I install my own safe?

Absolutely. But please check with your insurer first. Some insurance companies insist that a qualified safe engineer installs the safe.

Installing your own safe

Our safes (excluding gun safes) usually include Anchor Bolts. These are designed to secure a safe to a solid surface. You can replace them with longer/thicker bolts if you want, but check the hole diameter first to ensure they fit. The bolts supplied are normally (but not always) around 75mm in length, and 10/12mm in diameter.

You'll need a good drill (not cordless) and the correct size heavy-duty masonry drill bit, usually 10-12mm diameter.

Make a template so you know where to drill the holes. We recommend cutting a section of the safe box to match the size of the safe, and make holes in the cardboard to match the hole positions on the safe. Use the template to mark where your drilling points should be with a marker pen.

You might need to get a friend to help you, depending on how big or heavy your safe is.

Finally, never drill holes in the safe. This will compromise the security and invalidate your warranty.

Can safes be bolted to the floor?

Yes, unless you have under-floor heating (see Chemical Installation below). All security safes and selected fire safes come with pre-drilled holes in the base specifically for floor installation.

Most safes are supplied with Anchor Bolts. These are designed to be used with a solid surface such as concrete or brick. Solid wood such as floor joists are also fine, but you'll need to get some heavy-duty wood screws.

Floor boards (unless fixing into the joist) are not strong/thick enough. If you don't have a solid floor surface, consider a Chemical Installation or Wall Installation.

Chemical Installation

This involves using an industrial strength adhesive. As it's a relatively new type of installation, we recommend checking with your insurance company beforehand. It's also worth noting that you probably won't be able to take your safe with you if you move house, as moving it could seriously damage the floor. For more info, call us.

Can safes be bolted to a wall?

Some security safes and fire safes include pre-drilled holes in the back for attaching to a wall. But the wall must be solid, for example, an exterior brick wall. Do not install a safe to a stud wall.

First remove a section of the skirting board so that the safe can be fitted flush to the wall. If there's a space between the safe and the wall, it's easy to pry the safe from the wall, so always make it flush.
