How to choose a safe

Before buying, you should determine the type of construction. Fireproof safes protect contents from prolonged exposure to high temperatures. The space between their inner walls is filled with special foam concrete, the door is equipped with a thermal lock and gaskets. Burglary-resistant models are distinguished by reinforced locks and a particularly durable case. The best choice would be to buy a universal design.

Built-in safes are difficult to install, they can be disguised with furniture, interior items, etc. Portable designs are compact, light weight and small in capacity.

The reliability of the safe largely depends on the quality of the locking block:

• Standard mechanical locks are the most common due to their simple design, but require careful attention to key storage.
• Safes with code elements take a long time to open, but for operation they only require memorizing the combination.
• Electronic panels provide customization flexibility.
• Biometrics are more reliable, but they are expensive.

Features of the organization of the internal space are also important. For home use, a compact safe with one compartment will suffice. Convenient storage of both small valuables and large items will provide a roomy model with removable shelves and additional compartments.

Under the guise of safes, reinforced diplomats, archival cabinets, etc. can be presented for sale. In order not to make a mistake with the choice, you should check for a state-issued certificate. It should contain all the basic information about the product.

Safe protection classes

The burglary resistance of a safe is determined during tests carried out in accordance with GOST R 50862-2005. Based on them, the model is assigned a security class:

• H0 — the simplest and most economical safes with wall thicknesses up to 5 mm.
• I-II — reinforced structures designed to store small valuables, documents, weapons.
• III — reliable and durable solutions, optimal for holding large sums of money, expensive jewelry and other valuables that need maximum protection.

Safes that correspond to classes IV and above are classified as professional, are much less common on the market and are often made to order. This is due to their high cost. It is irrational to install such models at home — this is an exclusively commercial decision.
