The Next Generation of Home Safes are Beating the Burglars

Safewell Home SafesBurglars never change, but thankfully safes and vaults do.

A range of technical innovations and additional security features are making safes more secure than ever. Even home safes continue to embrace new technology; meaning they remain the ideal way to safeguard valuable jewellery, heirlooms and even a certain amount of cash.

There is a lot more to a modern safe than a steel box and a heavy lock. There are contemporary ways to lock and unlock a safe, and also a range of countermeasures like re-locking.

Used in high security bank safes, and vaults, a re=locker is a mechanism intended to bolster safe security in the event of a break in; it makes the safe even safer.

Re-locking includes re-lock triggers within the primary lock which activate when the lock is breached and re-locking devices, installed within the safe as a back-up locking device.

But you can enjoy high level, modern security in your own home with the next generation of home safes. We’ve come a long way from locks and keys, and the all new range of biometric home safes use the latest technology to protect cash and valuables without the need for a combination or a key; because you are the key.

From fingerprint recognition to retinal and iris scanning, biometric safes require unique identifiers in order to open; even voice print technology is available. Of course, finger print safes remain the most popular and accessible option. They ensure that unwanted visitors cannot access your safe, and provide you with peace of mind when you’re away from home.

Of course, if a burglar can carry your biometric safe home, they’re likely to get in there eventually. That’s why there are now so many options for safeguarding the safe itself.

One of the most popular modern solutions is anchoring a home safe to the floor. Burglars like to get in and out of a property fast, and a floor anchor prevents them from taking your safe with them. But underfloor safes go even further, since an intruder is unlikely to even know that they’re there.

Underfloor safes can be hidden almost anywhere, while wall safes can be installed integrally for maximum security. Cash ratings for underfloor and wall safes reach £35,000, which gives you an idea of how secure they really are.

Home safes are also one of the best ways to protect your valuables from unwanted attention, but as time goes on safe technology will only improve. Who knows what the next generation of technological advancement will bring? Any ideas? Let us know in the comments.
