Facts about Buying Safes

Ramsey Lock is the only brick-and-mortar locksmith shop in Bergen County and has been in business since 1963 helping customers with everything from key-cutting to lock installation throughout North Jersey. With the holiday season coming up, a safe is always an option to buy a family member or friend. Not ever safe is the same, so the expert safe dealers at Accurate Locksmith have outlined some pointers to help you know what to consider before this purchase.
  • Know what your safe is intended for – a fireproof safe might not necessarily prevent a burglary.
  • Don’t use a floor safe to protect you from a fire – although there are fireproof floor safes that can be installed onto the floor, these safes are primarily so that the contents can’t simply be stolen with the safe itself by being bolted to the floor. The best safes for fires need to be installed to a concrete surface.
  • The minimum fire safety rating for a safe to protect money or paper is a one hour fire rating.
  • Placing a safe is just as important as the kind of safe you pick. A safe should be somewhere where you are encouraged to use it, but not where it is in obvious view. There should be adequate lighting in the area that you can use the safe conveniently.

These tips are only a part of the different advantages to safes and how to pick the right one for your needs, but coming to the Accurate Locksmith storefront and speaking to an expert can help you make your selection the only one you need for life.
