5 safes to protect valuables from burglary and fire

The assortment of the Ukrainian manufacturer Paritet-K includes safes for every taste and wallet thickness. The F.30CLI.50.E is a versatile solution with modest dimensions and an attractive price tag, which provides a basic level of content protection.

The internal volume of the safe is 33 liters. For many, this figure will not say anything, so we decipher it: the model is able to take on board a couple of file folders for A4 documents, a large amount of “evergreen” bills, and there will still be a little space left in it for other material values. The space inside the safe is divided approximately in half by a shelf, which can be easily removed as unnecessary.

The thickness of the walls of the body of the product reaches 55 mm, the doors - 95 mm, they are additionally reinforced with reinforced concrete with refractory properties. In general, the model is classified as a safe with a fire resistance class of 30B, which guarantees the safety of the contents during the first half hour of a fire(at an outside temperature of no more than 1100 ° C). An additional link on guard against the effects of fire is BASF thermal tape around the perimeter of the door. Also the safe is certified according to the I class of burglar resistance.

The Paritet-K F.30CLI.50.E locking system is represented by five bolts (25 mm in diameter), which are actuated by the KG Group electronic lock. It, in turn, is protected from knocking out and drilling by a hard-alloy plate. And to prevent thieves from stealing the safe along with all the valuables, its design provides holes for anchor bolts for attaching the product to the floor (the bolts are included in the package “out of the box”). In general, for its money, the model is one of the most balanced offers on the market along with its partners: Paritet-K F.30CLI.50.K with a key lock and Paritet-K F.30CLI.50.C with a combination mechanical lock.

A domestic heat-resistant safe of a compact form factor (420x450x420 mm) can be hidden in a cabinet, under a table or installed in any other place, since it won’t take much. The range of tasks assigned to the model is reduced to the protection of documents and valuables from burglary or fire.

The Luka BNS MT-2 case has a sandwich structure - the cavity between its outer walls 4 mm thick and the inner ones (3 mm) is filled with heat-insulating material. He then plays an important role in the resistance of the model to fire. According to domestic state standards, it has been assigned a fire resistance class of 30B. And this is half an hour of direct exposure to high temperatures without harming the contents.

With resistance to hacking, the model is doing even better. The II class of protection according to the classification of the level of burglary resistance is a vivid confirmation of this. All thanks to a reliable locking system consisting of 7 chrome bolts that close the safe doors in four directions, and a hardened 5 mm hard metal plate that protects the key lock from drilling and knocking out.

The compartments of the product, separated by a removable shelf, hold A4 folders, jewelry or small weapons like an air pistol. It is also possible to fasten the safe from the inside to the floor with anchor bolts. Such a fixing method will definitely not be superfluous, especially since it significantly reduces the likelihood of the contents being stolen along with the safe.

Valberg's Value Guarantor combines advanced fire and entry-level burglary resistance in one compact bottle. And the combination of EL symbols in the model name encrypts the equipment of the safe with an electronic combination lock.

The degree of resistance of Valberg GARANT 46 EL to high temperatures is marked 60B, which means that at 1100 ° C outside, the temperature limit inside the safe is 170 ° C for an hour. The fire-resistant qualities of the product are achieved by filling the cavity between the walls of the body with fire-resistant concrete and a sealant, which is put on the perimeter of the door, which restrains the spread of flame.

The locking mechanism of the safe is represented by four rotating crossbars and one fixed one for fixing the door in the opening when trying to pull it out. The door is unlocked by entering a code combination up to 6 characters long. In order to prevent attempts to select a code, after the third attempt to enter a password, the lock of the safe is blocked for 2 minutes. With each subsequent approach, the waiting time increases incrementally (up to a maximum of 16 minutes). The power supply of the castle with the life-giving force of electricity is organized from a battery of the "PP3" type. The indicator lamp on the front panel indicates a low battery charge, and if the battery still sits down, external terminals are provided in the design of the lock.

From the inside, the safe is equipped with one removable shelf, which divides the internal volume approximately in two. Also in the model there is a hole for fastening to the floor by means of an anchor bolt provided as standard with the Valberg GARANT 46 EL. Deprived of serious disadvantages, the model occupies a high position among the detachment of fire-resistant safes and is one of the most popular products for the safe storage of material values in its price segment.

The safe from the South Korean lands Diplomat SS 060 DBK is distinguished by improved refractory properties - the temperature inside it remains within the “passport” norm for an hour and a half of exposure to high temperatures(about 1100 ° C). In order not to go unfounded, the fire resistance class assigned to the model is 90B, which confirms the above.

Fire protection is not the only trump card in the safe's sleeve. The contents of his "insides" are not so easy to steal. Firstly, at first you will have to deal with a reliable Mauer key lock, and secondly, when you try to pull out the door, two fixed bolts tightly fix it in the opening. In normal mode, the door is locked with three crossbars, brought out to one side, and its opening angle is 180° for easy access to stored valuables.

Part of the internal volume of the Diplomat SS 060 DBK is given over to the needs of the cash box, which is locked with its own key. The task of providing additional protection for the contents is thrown on her shoulders, however, the tracer does not have special burglary-resistant qualities. Also inside the model there is a removable shelf with height adjustment, which allows you to configure the space according to the preferences of the owner of the safe.

The attractiveness of the safe is given by a spectacular appearance - a combination of light and dark tones with red accents looks fresh and unconventional. In a similar vein, the closest relative of the model is made, which differs from the specimen in question by the electronic lock put into service. His name is Diplomat SS 060 E. Any of this couple will be put on guard for the safe storage of valuables and decorate most modern interiors with their presence.

Safes under the brand name Paritet-K are produced at domestic production facilities and are in no way inferior to foreign counterparts, for which more and more ordinary people prefer the company's products every day.

The GRIFFON CL.II.50.E model provides protection of content from unauthorized access and protects stored valuables in case of fire. It has been assigned the II class of protection against hacking, which is confirmed by the Banking Equipment Certification Center in accordance with the requirements prescribed in DSTU EN 1143-1:2014. Bear cubs with such a product will have to tinker longer than usual.

The design of the locking mechanism uses 5 steel rotating crossbars of the American production La GARD with a diameter of 25 mm, acting in horizontal and vertical directions. The electronic lock of the model is a purebred Dutchman (the brainchild of M-LOCKS). It remembers code combinations up to 6 characters long and gives 4 attempts to enter a password. If you fail, you can try your luck again after 5 minutes. The cares for providing power to the lock are shouldered by batteries of the "PP3" type.

Among other design features of the model, attention is paid to filling the doors with expanded clay concrete and protection with hardened alloy steel plates at the places where the locks are attached. Additionally, the safe can be attached to the floor, for which the traditional method of fixing with anchor bolts or fastening with a special bracket (for 8 mounting holes) is used. A device of the latter kind will need to be purchased separately, while two anchor bolts are carefully placed in a safe from the factory. With such data, Paritet-K GRIFFON CL.II.50.E is destined to take by no means secondary positions in the category of fire-resistant safes and become a faithful keeper of material well-being.
