Choosing a safe — frequently asked questions

What size safe do I need for a laptop?

A 13-inch laptop fits a safe of about 20 to 23 litres, a 15-inch laptop needs about 35 to 40 litres, and a 17-inch laptop about 55 litres. Check the inside width and depth, not just the litres.

What size are hotel room safes?

Standard guest rooms usually take a 23-litre safe that fits inside a wardrobe or bedside cabinet. Premium rooms and suites take 35 to 45 litres, and front and back offices 55 to 100 litres.

Are hotel in-room safes fireproof?

Our digital in-room safes are steel security safes built against theft and tampering, and are not fire-rated. If you need fire protection for documents or cash, choose a fireproof safe.

What do EN 1143-1 and UL 72 mean?

EN 1143-1 grades a safe's resistance to burglary from grade 0 to XIII, and insurers set how much cash each grade may hold. UL 72 rates fire resistance; Class 350 keeps paper below the temperature at which it chars for a rated time.

Can I order safes for export?

Yes. Safes can be added to an export order of hotel or office furniture, so they arrive with the rest of your project. We ship to the USA, Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand, and the minimum export order is USD 3,000.
