Depository Safes

Depository safes, also known as deposit safes, are designed to guard cash against burglary and theft during an armed robbery.

The most popular types of deposit safes are posting slot deposit safes such as the Falcon deposit safe RDS2, and flap deposit safes such as the Guardall FLD1.

Posting slot deposit safes are exactly what their name suggests, they come with a rectangular posting slot through which money or envelope could be dropped in. The design of these safes is simple, however, this also makes them easy to be tampered with. Some criminals would use tools such as a coat hanger to hook the cash back out through the postal slot. In order to prevent this from happening, we’ve seen an increase in popularity on flap deposit safes. This type of depository safe is also very easy to use for handling cash by your Staff. The flap deposit works similar to a post box. When you need to deposit cash or envelopes of cash, just pull the flap down, place the item on the flap and lift it back up. The advantage of using this type of deposit is that it is almost impossible to get the money out once it has been deposited into the safe.

Another popular option for people that needs to deposit money regularly, is to have an internal treasury cabinet built sinde the safe. This would capture the money dropped inside the safe while the bottom of the safe can be utilised to store other items such as floats, etc. it is crucial to keep in mind that safes come in various grades, designed to be suitable for the storage of different amounts of cash deposits. We would advise you to look at the cash rating of the depository safe you’re getting, to confirm that it is suitable for your needs.
