Compliance to Insurance

To determine the type of safe that is most suitable for you, you need to assess your requirements as follows and discuss with your insurance company:

  1. What is the total value of the cash or valuables, or data that I want to protect?
  2. What is the volume or size of what I want to protect?
  3. Does the safe needs to be fire resistant?
  4. What locking system you prefer i.e. key lock, key-less combination lock, electronic locks.
  5. Will a deposit option be required?
  6. Decide on type and location of safe i.e. free standing, wall , underfloor etc.
  7. Cash Rating Requirements?  See below for more information...

About Cash Ratings

A cash rating or suggested cash rating is normally the cash limit most insurance companies will recognise and insure against in the event of a burglary. However, should your contents be material ie. jewellery etc; insurance companies will normally provide ten times the cash rating cover for such items, so effectively a £6,000 cash rating safe should provide £60,000 cover for material / jewellery contents.
