Deciding Where to Put Your New Safe

There are many things to consider when buying a new safe. From brand to color to security and fire protection, there are many options to make a safe your own. One overlooked decision is where to put your new safe within your home that will be out of the way but also easily accessible in case of emergency.

Creating Space for Your New Safe

Something to consider when purchasing your new safe is the size and dimensions of the safe and where it will go when it has been delivered to your home. Height and width are important when looking at a safe that will properly fit in your home and where to store the safe whether that is in an office or tucked away. One factor not to be overlooked is the depth of your safe. Most home safes here at Colorado Safes range from 2 to 2 1/2 feet in overall depth. This size allows many homeowners to properly fit a safe in a closet or tight space without jutting out or causing issues with closing doors or maneuvering around the safe.

Avoiding Fire, Humidity and other Natural Factors

While most of our safes that we offer come with best in class fire protection and weather protection, for the longevity of your safe, it is always a good idea to avoid places that could possibly prone to external factors. Keeping safes away from areas more at risk for fire like the kitchen or water and humidity damage like a basement can ensure the long-life of your home safe and protect your investments stowed away inside. Garages can also not be the best choices for safes as many chemicals and liquids that could cause harm to your safe are also stored here. Basements are a good place to stay away from as they can be subject to higher humidity and risk of flood. Dehumidifiers can also be included in the purchase of your safe to protect any valuable documents stored within.

Different Options of Safes

We have in stock a wide variety of safes and protection to guarantee your family heirlooms stay in the family. We offer many smaller wall safes that give you more options of storing your safe like in a cupboard or under a stairwell. Along with best in class safes, we also offer many options for vault doors, turning your once unsafe room into a fortress.

Avoiding Burglary and Unwanted Attention for Your Safe

Keeping your safe away from wandering hands can ensure that your valuables stay completely protected. While our safes come with best in class burglary protection, it is always a good idea to avoid high traffic areas for your safe. Storing a safe in many of the common areas of your home (master bedroom, living room and garage) will make it so your safe is out of sight. We work with you to provide the best safe for your needs including going over the safety and burglary protection of each safe so that you can make the right decision for you and your family.
