GRADE-CERTIFIED PRODUCTION SITES
We list sustainability very highly on our agenda; setting highstandards for our products, our employee working conditionsand for the environment in which we live.
WHICH SAFE IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
The most important initial question is what you want to protect – cash and valuables, documents or data media?
Choose from the burglary protection range. This includes safes, cabinets, vaults & vault doors, designed to with stand physical attacks in different strengths or Grades. Each Grade represents a particular “cash rating” which is the amount an insurer will cover. The actual amount of cover can vary between insurance companies and country, and may be different to the manufacturer's recommended rating. You should always check what cover your insurance company is prepared to offer.
Choose from the fire protection range which includes safes and filing cabinets designed to keep documents or data media safe from the effects of a fire.
To survive a fire, documents require protection from temperatures higher than 170°C. Therefore cabinets have to be specifically designed, tested and then certified for this task. Without a credible certification, you cannot be sure that your documents are safe.
The same is valid for data media, except here the cabinet must offer much greater protection due to the sensitivity of the material. If the inside of the cabinet exceeds 50°C, then the information on a CD, DVD or tape will be destroyed.
CERTIFIED STRENGTH
FOR BURGLARY PROTECTION
Safes and vaults are awarded grades:
For security cabinets, there are Grades S1 and S2 (EN 14450).
For safes, vaults and vault doors, they are rated from Grade 0 to Grade XIII (EN 1143-1).
High security locks are graded according to EN 1300 in security levels A, B, C and D, the highest.
During the certification process, door panels of the products, bolt works, locks and handles are tested. The certification tests include an attack program that is devised so that various break-in attempts can be made using a selection of tools. A correlation between tool type and the time for which each one is used can be used to obtain a resistance score (resistance unit). The higher the score, the higher the level of resistance. Based on the results obtained, the safe is given a classifi- cation and then listed in a resistance grade.
FOR FIRE PROTECTION
These standards vary according to whether you want to protect paper documents, digital media or other highly sensitive objects. This is because the temperature at which data media (e.g. 50°C) and documents (e.g. 170°C) deteriorate differs according to the item protected:
In order to fully protect data media, industry standards indicate that products should carry ECB•S EN 1047-1, UL 72 Class 125 or NT Fire 017 60/120 DIS.
The ECB•S and UL tests monitor the internal temperature of the data cabinet until it has completely cooled down during the “soakout” period. Assessing products during this period is essential, since internal temperatures can peak up to six to eight hours after a fire has been extinguished. Such tests ensure that all products are compre- hensively tested and, upon passing, will fully protect your data media for the specific time period stated.
For document protection, all products must have an appropriate industry standard 30-, 60- or 120-minute paper certificate.
UL 72 Class 350, ECB•S EN 1047-1, EN 15659 or NT Fire 017 are acceptable standards for paper document protection.
LEVELS OF RESISTANCE
Alongside extremely strict standards, you will also find a number of others that are less stringent in terms of resistance.

WHICH LOCK IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
Depending on the range, you can customise your product with a different lock. Thus you can benefit from a comprehensive lock offering that includes the latest industry solutions, which offer a wide range of features. So whether it be the “mechanical combination” lock or an electronic solution, you can be sure to have a lock that will meet your security needs. Below the key terms associated with the range of locks.
A manual key-operated lock.
A mechanicalkeyless dial lock with a changeablecombination.
An electronically-operatedkeypad lock with a changeable combination.
Allows one user to controlthe functions of other combination holders.
The number of users able to program in their own access code.
An alarm engineer can link the lock into a monitored alarm system. Then, using a given procedure, the lock can be operated, the safe opened and a silent signal given to the monitoring station that this is being done under duress.
This feature allows for a pre-set delay between operating the lock and being able to open the safe. The operation may vary between lock types.
Time lock allows the user to set periods during which the lock may be operated, e.g. during business hours only. The options available will vary between locks.
The lock is able to give a report (it will vary in detail from model to model) of usage and may show times of operation, codes used and operations performed.
Allows two users to enter their details before any operation can be performed.
