Why
do you need a safe? Well, let's take a moment to think about
your valuables. Got cash? Jewelry? Guns? Deeds, wills, trusts?
Coin or stamp collections? If you said "yes" to
any of these questions, it's time to call Industrial Lock
& Security for the right answers.
Now you
want to know what kind of safe you need... below are several
things you need to ask yourself before picking up the phone.
- LOCATION:
Where do you want to put it? In a wall, on the ground, or
in the floor?
- FUNCTION:
Is this for your home or business? Do you want a drop slot
or rotary hopper for deposits or dual compartments for storage?
How many people will be opening the safe?
- SIZE:
What shapes are the objects you want to secure? You'll need
to think about jewelry boxes vs. bundles of cash, vs. legal
documents, vs. guns, etc… then, buy a safe one size
bigger than you need. Trust us on this one.
- RATING:
What is your main concern? Fire or theft- or both? Keep
in mind that simple fireboxes are less expensive than safes
rated to keep out burglars or heat from higher temperature
fires over an hour or more.
- PURPOSE:
How about a specialized safe that is built specifically
to protect data or hold laptops, guns, rifles, and ammunition?
Ever considered a quick access pistol safe that can be bolted
down to most any surface?
- VISIBILITY:
Do you want to hide your safe in plain sight? There are
decoy safes that are made to look like ordinary end tables
or armoires. There are also diversion safes that are actual,
ordinary household items that have been hollowed out so
you can stash little secrets inside. They look like deodorant
cans, candles, books, flowerpots, etc… (Great for traveling,
too!)
- TIME
DELAY: For your business, we recommend a time delay
entry. Once you enter the combination, there is a mandatory
waiting period of anywhere between 5 and 90 minutes before
the safe can be opened.
Well, we've given you some food for thought. Once you've made
some basic decisions it's time to call Industrial Lock
& Security to deliver and install your new safe!
