Selecting a Safe for Your Business

Many sizes and types of safes can be purchased and there are specific criteria to determine which one is better.

The common commercial safes can be classified into:

• Deposit safes

• Office safes

• Document safes

• Fire resistant safes

• Floor safes

• Wall safes

• Key control safes

• Electronic keypad safes

• High security burglary resistant safes

A deposit safe could be used if there is a need for storing money without having a key. Document safe could be chosen if there is a need for protection of files.

Safe Placement and Installation

A safe is to be installed in a way that would ensure its security and convenience for use by employees. Depending on its type a safe may be bolted to the floor, attached to the wall, placed into the cabinetry, or kept in reinforced place.

An incorrect placement of the safe could make it easier to steal and inconvenient for authorized personnel to use.

Before installing the safe it is necessary to check out the structure of the floor, clearances, door swing, visibility, moisture exposure, and the process of delivering the safe.

Commercial Safes Opening

There could be different reasons why a safe becomes locked, such as loss of combination, dead batteries, broken keypad, mechanical failure, broken handle, internal malfunction, or departure of an employee.

There are quite few methods for safe opening and it is really depends on its construction and locking mechanism, so in order to determine the best method of opening a safe it is required to examine it first.

Opening the safe by forced ways can lead to its destruction, damaging of contents and protective material.

Safe Combination and Access Changes

Changes in safe combinations and codes should be made if there was a change of management, an employee left the business, an unauthorized access occurred, or there was a change in the ownership of the business.

It is necessary to limit access to the safe only for those employees that need it.

New York Commercial Locksmith will help you to select the proper safe and open it whenever needed.
