There are different types of safes and purchasing one will depend on what items you would like to secure. The 4 basic types of safes are as follows.
Home Safe
For residential purposes, you will need a home security safe. They are chiefly designed to protect small amounts of cash, jewellery, memorabilia, and important papers from burglars and house fires. They include wall hidden safes and floor safes that can be installed strategically to make it difficult for intruders to find.
Commercial Grade Safe
Commercial safes are bigger and able to keep larger amounts of cash, documents and other valuables. Most of them have particular storage uses. To mention a few, there are jewellers grade safes, drug safes, key safes, and deposit safes that cater to what their name suggests.
Gun Safe
In Australia, state laws require gun owners to properly store their firearms to ensure the health and well-being of anyone who comes across it. Additionally, since weapons are costly investments, it is important to keep them away from thieves. There are many gun safes available that can comfortably fit one handgun to a collection of rifles.
Fireproof Safe
Unexpected perils like fire can threaten to damage your home, along with all your treasured valuables, cherished memorabilia, legal documents, and important personal assets. A typical fireproof safe can protect your valuables against intense heat and smoke damage for up to 120 minutes. Check the fire rating of the fire safe you are getting. The longer it can hold against fire, the better chances you will have of saving their contents.
