WHERE TO PUT A WALL SAFE

Choosing l place to embed a Wall Safe is essential to better protect one's possessions and personal belongings from possible theft. The Wall Safe, is placed inside a recess cut into a wall, in a hidden and private location. Wall safes, if recessed properly, are difficult to remove.

The best ones have a good-thickness front door made of impact-proof one-piece steel, hinges concealed inside to prevent unhinging, and a small space between door and frame to prevent the introduction of burglary tools. The Wall Safe, as opposed to the Mobile Safe, which is built with sheet metal of good thickness on all walls, has only the front side of high thickness, since precisely because it will have to be walled in, the other sides to be recessed are built with steel of lesser thickness. The Wall Safe is commonly defined as a security product suitable for home use.
 
Once bricked in properly this type of Safe is not easily removed from the wall. Unfortunately, the chronicle tells of some cases where this has been able to happen. This may be due to a wrong choice of its placement. Inspecting the walls of the house is most important to ensure that it is embedded in a strong wall, if possible load-bearing ( or master wall ) and reinforced concrete.

If the wall you choose is not a load-bearing wall, but rather a simple partition wall with perforated bricks, it will be easy for burglars to break it down, thus taking the safe. It is also necessary to calculate that the walls have at least the depth (+ 5 centimeters) of the safe. In ordinary houses, this thickness is present only in the perimeter walls. Good thing then before breaking the wall, is to check that in the chosen place there is no presence of pipes, bands of electrical cables or load-bearing columns. To do this, in addition to a careful examination of the wall, it is advisable to use suitable tools to detect the existence of walled cables or pipes.
 
Question: where to put a Wall Safe?
It is advisable to place it in a place that is difficult to reach, to make life difficult for the eventual burglar: for example, in a corner or on a flight of stairs. A good idea is to place the Safe at the bottom of a wall, hiding its cover with sockets that are the same as the others in the room, so no one will notice its presence. Or, the Safe could be placed behind a picture. In the children's room, it is also possible to hide the Safe well, such as behind the play area or near the crib. The children's room is the last place a thief will look for the Safe. Finally, another good hiding place is the kitchen by placing the Safe behind a pantry.
