The difference between storage cabinets and safes

The majority of high security storage cabinets usually will have a large internal space and multiple removable and adjustable shelves, also most often than not, they come with double doors whilst a safe will have a single door. Other ways to distinguish a security storage cabinet from a safe is they are normally larger in dimensions being the height-width and depth. Heavy-duty storage cabinets are spacious large security containers and have various locking options such as 

  • Electronic locking
  • Combination dial locking
  • Key locking

Storage cabinets are also available as fire resisting document cabinets for valuables and paper documents offering a high degree of fire protection against heat, humidity and smoke whilst giving a high defense against excessive force. This makes a fire resistant storage cabinet ideal in the event of a fire or burglary attack.

Why Security Storage Cabinets? 
Apart from protecting your valuables they will also allow you to safely and securely store away any dangerous equipment in the workplace to meet your duty of care and comply with your OH&S obligations towards employees. 

Employees will need to follow safe work practices when entering the locked security cabinets. High security storage cabinets are essential to work places such as factories, construction, mining, hospitals, chemical plants, workplace hazardous equipment etc.

Storage cabinets with electronic digital locking have the advantage of restricting access to staff users to have access via an authorised code. 

Raise Internal Security
Business owners need to be aware of internal theft of their stock as well as the threat of a break in out of business hours. This is where a high security storage cabinet is a must as it will protect your stock from theft during the day whilst at night all expensive items and unimportant items can be securely locked away and not vulnerable to being stolen or damaged. 

Multipurpose Security Storage Cabinet Safe
The advantage of a secure storage cabinet safe is they come in a variety of sizes and security options allowing you to choose the right storage cabinet to meet your business needs. There are different levels of security features available in the storage safes for example the high security storage safes have security features that are normally only used in high security cash safes allowing the business owner to store cash, jewellery, documents and other expensive items that are essential to the business operations.

Convenient Security Inventory Tracking
Our security storage cabinets are often used by industries where key security is essential. Why? Because a storage safe gives far more protection than that of a standard key cabinet ideal for situations such as car dealerships, car rentals, boat wholesalers and machinery dealers to name a few. Where multiple keys are needed, they often must be properly organised in an effective safe storage system while providing a high level of security as often these keys if stolen can allow a criminal to steal cars, boats or machinery worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars when this can simply be avoided key investing in a high security storage cabinet. 

A storage safe will also have enough internal space to store new car log books or history books which is a vital accessory to the car and can be often targeted to be stolen.
