Certified safes - independently tested and recognised

Not every safe on the market is certified. Certified safes are independently tested by recognised institutes such as ECB·S and meet strict European standards including EN 1143-1. At Atelier Boonen, we supply and install certified safes only - for private and professional use across Belgium.

Wat is een gecertificeerde kluis?

A safe is a security cabinet designed to protect valuables against theft, burglary and, depending on the model, fire. Certified safes are independently tested by recognised institutes and comply with strict European standards — unlike non-certified models which offer no verifiable guarantee of their actual security level.

The distinction between a certified and a non-certified safe lies in this independent validation. The EN 1143-1 standard is the reference framework for certified burglary-resistant safes. Safes are classified into resistance grades based on defined attack methods, tools used and effective attack duration. The higher the grade, the greater the resistance — and the higher the indicative insurable value of the contents.

Burglary-resistant safes and strongboxes – classes and test methods

Certified safes

Certified safes are available for different protection levels and applications. Certified burglary-resistant safes offer measurable resistance against intrusion attempts. Certified fire-resistant safes protect the contents against the effects of heat and fire for a defined test duration. Many certified safes combine both functions — offered in our range under the category fire-resistant safes.

Choosing a certified safe depends on the value of the goods to protect, the level of risk and the available budget, as well as practical criteria: placement conditions, usable volume, maximum permitted dimensions and weight — taking into account the surface and installation environment. These criteria apply equally to private and professional use.
