Types of Safes We Install

We professionally install a wide range of safes for homes, offices, and commercial properties. Whether you need a basic cash safe or a highly secure fireproof model, we can supply and fit the right solution for your needs. Our installations cover everything from small wall safes to large underfloor and freestanding units. With every installation, we ensure your safe is positioned for maximum security and anchored properly to meet insurance standards.

Here are some of the main types of safes we work with:

Wall Safes

Fitted into wall cavities and typically hidden behind furniture or décor, wall safes are ideal for securing cash, documents, and small valuables. They offer discreet protection and easy access when installed correctly.

Floor Safes / Underfloor Safes

Installed beneath floorboards or concrete floors, underfloor safes offer excellent security because they are hidden from view and extremely difficult to remove. A great choice for both homes and businesses looking for high-level theft protection.

Freestanding Safes

These are standalone safes placed on the floor, bolted securely to walls or the ground. Freestanding models come in various sizes and cash ratings, suitable for storing everything from laptops to jewellery and important paperwork.

Fireproof Safes

Designed to protect contents from fire damage, fireproof safes are ideal for documents, passports, and digital media storage. Many models also offer water resistance, providing comprehensive protection in emergencies.

High-Security Safes

Built with advanced locking mechanisms and heavy-duty construction, high-security safes are certified against burglary attacks. They are often rated by EN standards for commercial and high-value residential use.

Deposit Safes

Commonly used by retailers and businesses, deposit safes allow cash or items to be securely placed inside without opening the main compartment. Perfect for environments where multiple people handle money.

Gun Safes

For those who require firearms storage, we install police-approved gun cabinets and rifle safes that comply with UK firearm regulations.

Jewellery & Watch Safes

Specialist safes designed with enhanced internal fittings to protect high-value jewellery and watches, often offering both fire resistance and anti-theft features.

We work with all major safe brands, including Burg Wächter, Chubbsafes, Phoenix, Yale, Securikey, Dudley Safes, and Master Lock, providing expert installation services throughout Plaistow and the surrounding areas.

Fire Safe Installation FAQs

How long can a fire safe protect my belongings during a fire?
Fire safes are rated for different protection times, typically 30, 60, or 120 minutes. The right choice depends on what you are storing and the level of risk in your property. We can recommend a model that suits your needs during a consultation.

Can I install a fireproof safe anywhere in my home?
It’s important to install a fire safe away from areas with the highest fire risk, such as kitchens or heating systems. We carefully assess your property to choose a secure, low-risk location and anchor the safe properly to maximise its fire resistance.

Do fireproof safes also protect against theft?
Many fire safes offer both fire and burglary protection, but it depends on the model. Some are designed primarily for fire resistance, while others are dual-rated. We’ll help you select a safe that provides the right balance of security features for your property.
