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.
Number of locking bolts
The number of locking bolts provided in the design of a standard safe lock.
The locking bolt is a working element of the lock, which responds directly to the locking. It is a rod, disk, or other element (usually metal) that fits into a slot in the fixed part of the safe, blocking the opening of the door. The more such elements a safe has, the more reliable the lock and the lower the probability of opening the door by “brute force”.
This parameter in our catalog is indicated for one lock, regardless of their number in a safe. Most often, all safe locks have the same number of bolts.
Now on the market there are locks with the following number of locking bolts:
2,
3,
4,
5,
6 and
more.
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.
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.
