Underfloor safes
Underfloor safes have been produced commercially from around the early 1970's by Churchill, originally sold under the Levy Safe brand. Churchill safes became the leading producer of floor safes in the UK until their parent company decided to close their factory in Newcastle under Lyme in 2008. Chubbsafes, who then controlled the the Churchill brand, soldiered on by outsourcing production to China, but eventually ceased operations in 2020. All is not lost as Hydan Safes, owned and run by ex Churchill staff now manufacture an improved range to that which Churchill manufactured themselves back in 2008, including Electronic and Dial Combination locking under floor safes.
Hidden floor safes
Why choose an underfloor safe? The downsides are that the safe could take near enough a day to fit and then a 7 day wait before you can use it to allow the concrete mixture to fully dry. On top of that you will need to get down on your knees to open and use it, which may not be to your liking. In which case you should look at our insurance approved Floor standing security safes. However, it is not all doom and gloom, the real benefits are that the safe is hidden from view and with careful positioning of furniture or carpets it is unlikely to be located if you suffer a burglary. Furthermore even if it was located it is going to take some time consuming heavy drilling or back breaking work to remove it - far longer than a equivalent floor standing model
Concealed floor safes
By concealing safes underground your are improving the security immensely especially if the safe has been fitted correctly - the most comprehensive Floor Safe installation instructions are those supplied by Hydan Safes. The safe can be installed without a great deal of knowledge if the instructions are followed but most of our customers employ a local general builder. To ensure the safe is protected from damp fit a waterproof membrane and ensure that the safe door is not fitted untill the concrete mixture has fully dried out and set - usually up to a week. If the door is fitted immediately after installation then your safe will suffer condensation damage as will all the contents!
An underfloor safe is a great option for small businesses, as this type of safe is suitable for insurance purposes. Read on to find out how you should correctly install an underfloor safe >>
