Should I invest in a key safe?

Do you work in a factory, office suite or hospital? A hotel or car dealership? Wherever it may be, we can bet you’ll have access to a lot of keys – either for rooms, cupboards or cars. But what do you do with them when your shift ends?

The solution is simple.

A key safe is a strong metal box that is designed to store all manner of keys. It can be installed inside or outside – into the brick or concrete – and is accessed by a combination code which helps to protect your keys from going missing or being stolen. Without the correct code, the door won’t open. And as specialists in safes and secure storage, we have a comprehensive range of key safes and cabinets available within our online catalogue, here at eSafes, which can store up to 500 keys.

Why might you need a key safe?

There are lots of reasons why you should consider investing in a key safe.

Safes are great for storing valuable possessions – keeping them out of harm’s way and ready for when you need them next. Key safes are the same, only they are designed to house keys and fobs.

An indoor key safe is typically used by industries that deal with hundreds – if not thousands – of keys on a regular basis. For example, garages, hotels and letting agents. They are particularly useful for schools and other commercial environments where multiple people will require different keys at various times during the day too.

But they aren’t just great for businesses. Indoor key safes are ideal if your family is constantly misplacing car keys, garage keys, shed keys, bike padlock keys, etc.

Some safes are suitable for outdoor use – allowing you to keep spare keys outside for people to easily gain access to your property. Outdoor key safes are invaluable if you have a loved one who lives alone and may struggle to get to the door when you knock. They allow family members, carers or healthcare professionals to access the property without disturbing the occupant.

What’s the best key safe?

The best key safe for you will depend on several factors, including how many keys you need to store, how much space you have available and your budget.

However, we provide safes to suit every need – from leading brands, such as Burton Safes, Chubbsafes, De Raat, Phoenix Safes and Securikey – and all our key safes come with a high-security combination, electronic, key, padlock or push-button lock as standard. So whether you’re looking for a budget key safe, a portable key safe or deep key vault, you should have no issue finding it at eSafes.

Some of our safes and cabinets also come with a selection of coloured keyrings which makes it easier for you to organise your keys and identify exactly which ones are missing.
