Not every safe offers the same protection. Certified safes and vaults are independently tested by recognised bodies such as ECB·S and classified in resistance grades — an objective measure of the level of protection against burglary and/or fire.
For burglary resistance, grades run from S1 and S2 up to Grade 0 through 13. The higher the grade, the greater the resistance to attacks with professional tools — and the higher the insurable value your insurer recognises. For fire resistance, the grade determines how long the internal temperature stays below the critical threshold: around 170°C for paper documents, around 55°C for digital media.
A certified safe is recognisable by the metal ECB·S plate on the inside of the door, stating the standard and resistance grade. Non-certified products offer no guarantee whatsoever — not for your security, and not for your insurer.
With us you buy only solid, certified safes and vaults — delivered, installed and anchored by our own specialists, with service and follow-up after installation.
