Safes

Good safes are key to an overall security strategy for your home or business.  A good safe can protect your valuable items from burglars and from damage due to fire.  Be sure to check when looking for a safe to make sure that it carries a burglary and fireproof rating.  Example burglary ratings are UL TL15 and TL 30 ratings, and example fireproof ratings are 1 hour and 2 hour fireproof rated.

Safes that carry these ratings have actually been tested to resist burglars and also tested under actual fire conditions to make certain that the contents of the safe were not damaged.  Also, if you decide on a free-standing safe, make certain that it is bolted down.  Good freestanding safes have bolt-holes in the bottom of the safe for this purpose.  This keeps a would-be thief from carrying the safe to some other place where they will have plenty of time to open it.

Safe

A bolted down safe can save your valuables from the devastating effects of a home burglary.  Here are a few statistics to keep in mind if you’re thinking about purchasing a safe:

-A burglary occurs approximately every 15 seconds in America
-Nearly 66 percent of all burglaries are residential, and of those, 62 percent occur during the daytime
-Most burglaries occur between 9am and 3pm - when most people are away at work
-Only 13% of burglaries are solved by police
-Only about 15% of property stolen in burglaries is recovered by police
-Nearly 85% of burglaries occur in large metropolitan areas

    These are just a few reasons that you should use a good bolted down safe in your home.  Also, be sure to check the burglary and fireproof rating of the safe for an even more secure setup.

    Floor safes

    Floor safes can be hidden by mounting them in a carpeted area and having a removable patch of carpet to cover the opening.  If this is in a dark closet or other enclosed area, it is quite possible that a thief entering your home or business would not have the time to find it.  And if it’s mounted in concrete, even if it is found it will be difficult to break into.  This is because most floor safes have a hardened steel top plate that is drill resistant.

    Most thieves do not have the skill necessary to open a safe with a good locking mechanism quickly.  They tend to carry them off to another location to work on them.  But this is not possible if your floor safe is mounted in concrete.  Floor safes  can be bought with a traditional mechanical combination dial or with a more convenient electronic keypad type locking mechanism.  For more information on floor safes.

    Floor Safe

    A floor safe is one of the best types of safe because it has a drill resistant top plate and is surrounded by concrete.  Most burglars don’t have the skills necessary to open a good safe quickly - if they bother it at all they usually carry it off somewhere else where they have time to work on it.  But this is not possible with a floor safe mounted in concrete.

    Besides a drill resistant top plate, you should look for a floor safe that has a hard polymer outer body.  This will help protect the metal in the safe from rusting out over time due to the moisture that accumulates in concrete.  Also, make sure the floor safe uses a good locking mechanism, whether it is a traditional mechanical dial or an electronic keypad type.  If you are considering purchasing a safe to protect valuables in your home or business, you should seriously consider a floor safe.  For more information on the floor safe.
