Bullion Safe Selection

It was brought to the public's attention that crime rates have gone up across Australia due to the detrimental impact of the covid-19 pandemic and increasing unemployment rate. A recent robbery in Brisbane further reinstated the importance of storing gold, jewellery and other valuables in a premium quality bullion safe. In this tragic event, Mr Christopher Lunt, a former Army veteran had his life savings taken on New Year’s Eve from a cheap safe he bought from a hardware store. If you don’t want to be a victim of this unfortunate mishap, It is always wise to have a bullion safe from a reliable and accredited provider, and ensure the safe is closed to withstand an attack, as well as keep your gold and other valuables hidden.  

Bullion safes are jewellers grade safes  that are constructed to withstand serious attacks. They’re ideal for the protection of precious metal, gold bullions, jewelleries and large amounts of cash in both home and office environments. 

As a general rule of thumb, the heavier the bullion safe is, the higher security rating it would offer. Some new customers may believe that smaller safes offer higher security as they can be hidden away. However based on past experience this is never the case. First of all, smaller safes are most likely not big enough to fit all your valuables in; secondly, when a professional burglar or thief breaks in, they know all the places to look for, and they always find the safe. In this case you will need your safe to be as strong as possible to withstand their professional criminal attacks, and heavy enough so the criminal can’t just take it away with them to crack open in their leisure time.
