Capacity

The volume of the interior space of the safe. Usually this parameter is indicated taking into account the safe-in-safe and other additional internal compartments. The amount of content that can be placed inside directly depends on the volume; on the other hand, it affects the external dimensions and weight of the storage.

Country of origin

The country where the safe is made as an entire product. For example, if a factory in Bulgaria takes a “box” welded in China and puts a German lock in it, then Bulgaria is indicated as the country of origin.

It is worth noting that the quality of the safe does not much depend on this parameter — generally it is worth looking rather not at the country of origin, but at the brand and price category of the product.

Now there are such safe-manufacturing countries on the market: Bulgaria, Great Britain, Germany, Italy, China, USA, Slovakia, France, South Korea.

Lock model

This paragraph indicates the manufacturer of the safe lock.

External dimensions (HxWxD)

The size of safe regarding its external dimensions. These figures will allow you to estimate how much space the safe takes up and whether it will fit into the intended installation location. Of course, greater capacity implies larger dimensions.

Internal dimensions (HxWxD)

Dimensions of the interior space of the safe. Note that in our catalog this parameter is indicated without a safe-in-safe, ammo compartment (see below) or other additional compartment provided inside.

This parameter directly determines the internal volume (see below). In addition, with the internal dimensions are known, you can determine whether this or that object will fit inside; this is especially important if you plan to use the safe for large items (for example, large-format documents that cannot be folded) — after all, in different models, the dimensions on three sides can vary significantly even with the same capacity.

Door thickness

This parameter means the actual thickness of the safe door; do not confuse it with wall thickness, see below. This dimension is measured excluding the lock and other protruding parts. It is one of the main factors determining the reliability and burglary resistance of a safe (see “Burglary resistance class”). In addition, regulatory documents may consist of direct requirements for certain categories of safes (for example, gun safes, "bank", etc.), including the minimum permissible door thickness.

Note that a thick door is especially important for embedded models (see "Product Type") — after all, in the normal position from the sides and back, the storage is protected by the wall it is mounted into, and the door remains outside.

Body thickness

The total thickness of the safe body, in other words, the thickness of the entire layer of material that separates the internal space of the safe from the environment. Do not confuse this parameter with the safe wall thickness (see below).

Most often, the dimensions of the walls are the same on the sides and back, so it is enough to indicate the general value in the specs. Anyway, the reliability and burglary resistance of a model, as well as its compliance with regulatory requirements, depend on this indicator — for certain areas of application (gun safes, bank safes, etc.), the terms of the legislation can be very detailed and prescribe even the lowest permissible body thickness.

Door wall thickness

The wall thickness of the door is meant the thickness of a separate metal sheet used in its construction. The use of this parameter is due to the fact that some safes may have voids in metal doors filled with air or a special filler (this is especially true for fireproof models, see "Product Type"). And since the most durable material of the safe door is usually metal, it is the wall thickness that largely determines the overall burglary resistance of the product.

Do not confuse this parameter with the total thickness of the door (see above). For clarity, we can take this example: if a safe door consists of a filler layer of 10 mm with sheets of metal of 5 mm on both sides, then the total thickness of the door will be 20 mm, while the wall thickness is only 5 mm.

Weight

The total weight of the empty safe. Unlike many other products, for safes, heavy weight is usually more of an advantage than a disadvantage: the heavier the safe, the more difficult it is to steal it entirely for later opening in a safe place. The only exceptions are portable and automotive models (see "Product Type") — in their case, theft prevention is ensured primarily by fastening, and in the first case, the product, by definition, must be suitable for carrying in hands.
