Under floorboard safes

Floorboard safes are a simple way of protecting jewellery, cash and small valuables from the opportunistic burglar at a very small cost. They are easily fixed between your floor joists and hidden under your floorboards. There are 2 sizes of Keysecure floorboard safes (same length but a standard and a wider model) but both will be positioned between the joists when installing.

How to install a Floorboard Safe

  • Locate an ideal position for your floorboard safe - where that will not be regular pedestrian traffic
  • Remove sufficient floorboards to reveal the structural wooden joists beneath
  • If the joists are wider than 340mm apart, decrease the gap by padding out with timber
  • Place safe over the joists and mark out where the flanges will sit
  • Chisel out this area to enable the the safe to lie flat with joists when fitted
  • Once the safe is in position on the joists mark the location of the 4 holes (2 either end)
  • Remove the safe and drill 4 pilot holes at the marked location points
  • Position the safe into position and secure with the 4 coach screws provided
  • Replace the removed floorboards into position
  • Cover the this floor board area with a piece of furniture or carpet
  • Your floorboard safe is now coimpletely out of sight and your valuables are secure

Are floorboard safes fireproof?

Floorboard safes are designed as a security safe with a secure 7 lever lock and by hiding the safe under floorboards you are adding to the security. Although the safe itself would not in anyway accelerate the fire it will not protect the contents from heat damage. If fire resistance is important to you then please check out our fireproof document chests or fire safes where you can find tested and certified fire resistance for up to 2 hours.

How secure are floorboard safes?

Floorboard safes if found could be attacked and removed by a determined burglar, but first they have to find the safe! If you require even more security then look no further than our range of Floor Security Safes which are buried underground and secured with concrete. In addition Floor safes offer various grades of security distinguished by the Insurance cash rating suggested by the manufacturer. These insurance ratings begin at £4000 and rise up to £35,000 such as the Hydan Platinum Floor Safe model and each increase in cash rating offers more sophisticated increased security and with a choice of Key, mechanical dial combination or digital electronic locks
