tired of bending down to access your safe

Tired of bending down to access your safe?

We have seen an increase in the demand for safe stands that are used to position the security safes on. These stands are made to elevate the safe to a friendly height to avoid the need for customers to bend down or get to their knees to access the bottom shelves or drawers of the safe. This request is more common in offices with awareness of WHS legislations. Less bending and kneeling down means less chance of workplace injuries, which in turn creates a safer work environment for their Employees. A safe stand is also great for a home environment, less bending means there are less chances for back pains and sore knees. 

Most security safes are extremely heavy, the weight is a crucial factor contributing to the security level of the safe. The heavier the safe, the more difficult it is for burglars and thieves to crack it open. Take the safe in the blog featured image as an example, it is a Guardall Security Safe GDF ES1200, it weighs 590kg! What comes with this heavy weight is a high cash rating of approximately $45,000 and a fire resistance of 60 minutes. 

When the heavy safe is placed on a safe stand, it is potentially hazardous due to its heavy weight. Any incident during the lifting of the safe, or any defect in the stand causing the falling of the heavy safe is detrimental to both the surrounding property and the lives of people who are close by. Therefore it is always recommended to have this done by a professional safe installer such as Safeguard Safes. Safeguard Safes have been moving and installing safes in Australia for over 35 years, the quality of our service is backed up by our countless 5 star reviews from satisfied customers. 

When the safe is placed on top of the stand, it is constantly exerting pressure on the stand. Hence it is very important that the safe stands are strongly built to withstand the weight of the safe, avoiding any chance of it collapsing or getting crushed. Some stands on the market are made of wooden materials which could collapse from issues such as termites and wood rotting. Here at Safeguard Safes, we construct the safe stand with welded steel to avoid these problems. Our safe stands are designed to be anchored down by quality bolts, so it is difficult to be accessed and tampered with by the criminals. 

We have standard sized safe stands available on our website and in our Victoria showroom, including the popular Guardall BFG safe stand and the LockIT Key cabinet stand. We can also customise and build the stand to suit your particular needs, have them built to the perfect height for your situation, fitted at your ideal location, and even designed to the color you desire. All these are done before it is delivered to you, so the installation process can be smooth and quick.
