Burg-Wächter Profi Safe

Not every safe comes with an emergency key as standard — it depends on the lock type. Certain entry-level models for private use, such as the Technomax DPE and Technomax GMT, are fitted with one as standard, using a quality EN 1300-certified double-bit key lock. In addition, most of our safes can optionally be fitted with an electronic code lock with emergency key, such as the Kaba-Mauer Code Combi B90 (EN 1300 class B), suitable for safes up to EN 1143-1 grade 5.

The best safe for your home doesn't exist — the best safe for your situation does. The right choice depends on what you want to protect, where you want to place the safe and how you use it day to day. For everyday items such as jewellery, documents or some cash, a burglar-resistant home safe of a lower security grade is often sufficient; if you also want protection against fire, choose a fire-resistant safe. If you prefer to keep the safe hidden, a wall safe or floor safe is an interesting option. Also pay attention to the insurable value per grade and to professional anchoring, and check whether your insurer has specific requirements. Our safe for the home page gives you a complete overview with concrete models.

Yes, it is entirely possible to install a safe in a built-in cupboard. We regularly carry out this type of installation. The simplest solution is usually to place the safe on the base of the cupboard and secure it both to the floor and to the wall. In many cases, this type of cupboard is fitted with a plinth. We can then manufacture a steel mounting plinth at the same height as the cupboard, or adapt the existing base to create a stable and suitable support. We can also cut out the back panel of the cupboard so that the safe can be positioned as close as possible to the wall. Installing a safe higher up inside the cupboard is also possible, depending on the type of wall and the weight of the safe. In that case, a plinth or mounting plate may be required to ensure a safe and reliable fixing.

Installing a safe yourself is perfectly possible, but two things deserve attention. First, the weight: most safes are heavier than expected and difficult to manoeuvre without the right equipment. Second, the fixation: the standard anchoring material supplied is generally only suitable for concrete — on other surfaces, it is often insufficient.

At Atelier Boonen, professional installation and anchoring are included as standard. If you prefer to pick up your safe yourself, that is possible by appointment — with a discount provided. We are of course also happy to give tips for self-installation.
