Specifications of a Small Safe
The insurance cover or insurance rating upon on a smaller safe may differ from larger safes. The entry level safes start with a cash rating of £1,000 and valuables rating of £10,000. This is due to the size of the safe and the construction, these safes will offer basic protection for the contents inside.
It is highly recommended to choose a safe that not only fits within your required space but also to provide a good level of protection. Safes that have an insurance rating of £4,000/£40,000 or £6,000/£60,000 will naturally have a better level of security.
Installation and Lock Type
Due to the small nature of a compact safe you should ensure they are bolted down to prevent a burglar from walking off with your safe. In our range of mini safe models, you will find that we offer key locking or an electronic lock. Small safes for the home you see in this section with an electronic lock will usually have a master emergency key for use if the batteries fail or you forget your code.
Smallest Safe Available
The safe with the smallest dimensions that we have available is the De Raat Technomax MB/0 Minisafe - Key Lock.
What can you store within a Compact Safe?
The most common items stored within small safes are passports, cash and a small quantity of jewellery or watches. Hotels or Airbnb’s is commonly where you see safes that have been installed within cupboards or wardrobes.
Ideal Situations and Locations for Small Safes
Naturally the size and capacity of a smaller safe not only limits what can be stored inside but it can also be important when choosing the placement of the safe. We would normally recommend to install and anchor the safe out of sight within a cupboard or wardrobe. Please make sure that if the safe is placed on a shelf that the shelf is strong enough to support the weight of the safe.
