Benefits of Commercial Safes and Vaults

Generally, commerce safes have stronger fire protection and theft-resistance features than residential models, as they are designed specifically for business requirements. They also are an important asset for protecting confidential documents and ensuring only the people who need to see them have access to them.

What to Keep in a Business Safe?

Before you start looking at the range of safes we have available, take a moment to think about what you want to keep in your new commercial safe. We find many business owners like to keep a combination of the following in their commercial safes and vaults.

1. Receipts and Tax Records

These documents serve as proof of what you've reported on your taxes. Securely lock away your:

• Receipts
• Bank or credit card statements
• Bills and invoices
• Cancelled checks
• Proof of payment
• Financial statements
• Previous tax returns

2. Business Documents

This is any paperwork you acquire as you keep your business operational. This includes files and documents related to employees, contractors, and insurance companies. Other documents can include:

• Deeds that verifies the ownership of the business premises and company vehicles
• Contract agreements
• Stock and shareholder information
• Records on due dates for upcoming payments or outstanding debts
• Professional business appraisals
• Financial and bank account information
• Insurance policies

3. External Hard-Drives and Backups

Many organisations keep fewer physical documents nowadays and opt to store data on thumb drives, external hard drives, and backup discs instead. While digital security is important, protecting physical items cannot be overlooked. You may like to store the following in a commercial safe for added security.

• Laptops
• External hard drives and USBs
• CDs and discs, including business software
• Data backups for websites and other vital systems

If your organisation has a lot of digital data, look for a UL-rated safe that can withstand temperatures that can destroy digital media.

4. Earnings and Backup Cash

While it's advisable not to leave a huge amount of cash at your business premises, there will be times when you need to store cash on the premises. At these times, a deposit safe is a must to protect the money from being stolen. Your safe safeguards your money by enabling employees to deposit cash into the safe without accessing the safe’s contents. Your earnings will then be secured until their scheduled transportation to the bank.

Besides earnings, you may want to keep extra cash on hand as an emergency fund or "float money." This backup money is best kept in a fireproof safe with strong doors for protection and easy access.

5. Spare Keys

If your keys get lost in a fire, flood, or theft, it's critical to ensure that you have spare copies to access all your business resources. Store spares of the following in your safe too.

• Safety deposit box keys
• Business vehicle keys
• Keys for other company

Types of Commercial Safes

Deposit or Drop Safes

Deposit or drop safes are the most popular choice to store cash in shops, restaurants, petrol stations or banks. The appeal lies in its unique feature: the slot or drawer that lets money or documents in the safe without opening the steel security doors. This means anyone can put something into the safe, but only those in charge of the key or with knowledge of the security code can retrieve anything that has been deposited.

Fire-Rated Safes

Fire-rated safes protect your valuables, such as business documents and cash deposits, in the event of a fire. If there is a fire on your premises, you can know your business documents are safely stored while you focus on your employees and patrons' physical health and safety. Currently, no safe has been developed as "fully fireproof", but many provide substantial fire resistance. Our collection of fireproof safes includes a range of fire resistance ratings, including safes that can protect their contents for up to 2 hours in a fire.

Office Safes

Office safes are not just used in the office, they are also popular amongst retail stores and restaurants. These safes are typically bolted to the ground and have high fire ratings. Moreover, they have been drop tested to ensure protection even by repeated dropping of the safe. While office safes are similar in construction and design to home safes, these safes mostly use an electronic lock for additional security.

Alternatively, if you want to store important documents securely and in an easily organised way, we have an excellent selection of filing cabinet safes for sale.

Data or Media Safes

The crucial data stored on any device can be corrupted and deleted at relatively low temperatures. Papers that are stored in a safe during a fire can withstand temperatures of up to 175° Celsius. Digital media, on the other hand, can only withstand temperatures of less than 50° Celsius. Data or Media safes are designed to protect important information from high temperatures and even smoke damage. We have a range of commercial data and media safes for sale, as well as laptop safes.

In-Floor Safes

These safes are designed to be concealed in concrete to avoid unnecessary attention. A popular choice among many commercial industries, in-floor safes provide further security for their contents.

High-Security Safes

As you can tell from their name, high-security safes are the most robust and secure safes on the market. Typically, these safes include layers of barriers to withstand drilling. They may also feature additional locking mechanisms that come into effect when someone is forcing their way into the safe. Most high-security safes use advanced electronic locks that feature easier access for the owner while still maintaining high-security levels.
