The EU Norms for Burglary-resistance safe ratings are values given by independent institutions recognized throughout Europe. The burglary grade could play a role for the insurance category of the stored valuables.

Safes have to be certified according to EN-1143-1 or EN 14450 regulations. These well-defined standards classify safes into security Grades.The amounts that can be insured in a specific safe variate across European countries.

Consider next point when:

1. The material of the wall/the floor plays an important role here. For example, concrete ensures a safer and more solid bolting material than wood.
2. Make sure you check if there are any cables or wires in the wall or the floor you want to drill into. Be careful with the heating and/or piping system as well. If you have underfloor heating, we strongly recommend that you do not drill down into your floor. Instead, you can secure your safe by bolting it to the wall.
3. If you don't have a solid floor surface, consider a wall safe installation.
4. You might need the help of a second person to move the safe into position.
5. We advise bolting the vault both to the wall and floor if possible.

Yes! SafeGear is very happy to offer support in your delivery & installation process of one of our certified safes. Safety and security during the implementation plays a vital role for us. Therefore, we decided to cooperate with professional safe engineers who are able to secure and guarantee this.

The costs regarding this depend on numerous factors:

• the exact weight of the safe
• the bolting process (if you wish it to be bolted on the wall, floor or somewhere else) 
• the floor you live on
• general accessibility of your apartment/house
• existing elevators or stairs 

Planning your delivery and installation process with our support saves you a lot of time, avoids wrong installation and prevents any damage.

A frequent error when installing a safe without professional help is that many people leave a space between the safe and for example the wall, without bolting it appropriately. Moreover, if stored in a wardrobe, it should not be solely put inside, one should create a possibility to bolt the safe to a solid ground. Not following those procedures decreases security and simplifies theft. Our engineer specialists with experience in the vault industry can perfectly install your safe in the wished location and therefore facilitate your life and secure your valuables.

If you consider delivery & installation with our help, please inform us beforehand so we can prepare and arrange the best fit for you.

Both the Key and the Code Lock offer the same level of security for your security cabinet or safe. Your way of choosing the right locking system depends on your preferences.

Key Safe Locks - Traditional locking system

Quality key locks can be bought for a quite cheap price but cheap Code Locks can make errors and fail. You have to keep in mind that key locks can be breakable and most importantly losable. If you lose the key to your safe the security level decreases. In this case, you have to react fast and change your lock as soon as possible - and this is going to cost you money.

Code Safe Locks - Modern locking system

Code Locks give you quick access to the content of your security cabinet or safe. The best thing about Code Locks is that the code can be shared with other people without extra keys. However, it is important to remember that if you forget your lock's code it can be more pricey than changing the key lock.

No, the lock is not included in the external dimensions of the safe. Measures of the safe are without the lock handle and fitting. You can find the lock dimension on the product description under the attribute "Lock depth".
