Buying an electronic safe for valuables
An electronic safe allows you to store money, jewelry, and other valuable possessions in one fixed location. Thanks to the electronic combination lock, you have quick access with a personal code, while an emergency key serves as an alternative access method.
At TEKZEN, you will find electronic safes from Stark's in various sizes. From a compact money safe for home to a larger model with extra storage space: choose the dimensions that match what you want to store safely and organized.
Electronic safe with combination lock
You open a safe with an electronic combination lock with a set numerical code.
This means you don't have to grab a key every time for normal use. This can be particularly convenient if you need regular access to the contents.
The electronic safes in the current range also feature an emergency key.
Always store this emergency key in a safe place outside the safe. After all, a spare key located inside the locked safe cannot be used when you need it.
Safe with combination lock and key
A combination of a combination lock and emergency key gives you two ways to access the safe.
For daily use, you can use the electronic combination lock. The emergency key is intended as an alternative access method when needed.
Within the current range, all five Stark's models have this combination.
Always read the supplied instructions for setting the code and using the emergency key before use.
Home safe
A home safe provides a fixed storage place for important items.
This could include cash, jewelry, or other personal belongings that you prefer not to keep loose in a cupboard or drawer.
Which safe is suitable mainly depends on what you want to place inside it. For a few small items, a compact model may suffice. If you want to store larger or more items, you will need more internal space.
That's why you'll find various sizes within this collection.
Money safe for home
You prefer not to leave cash lying around just anywhere. A money safe provides a locked storage place for it.
Besides money, you can, of course, also store other suitable valuables in the same safe.
Consider how much space you need beforehand. A compact money safe takes up less space, while a larger model offers more storage capacity.
Therefore, do not just look at the price, but especially at the external and internal dimensions of the specific model.
Jewelry safe
An electronic safe can also be a practical storage solution for jewelry.
Watches, necklaces, rings, and other valuable personal items are thus not loosely scattered across different drawers or cabinets.
If necessary, use suitable boxes or organizers inside the safe to keep smaller jewelry clearly separated.
Check beforehand if the internal space is sufficient for the jewelry boxes or other items you want to place inside.
Digital safe
The terms digital safe and electronic safe are often used for the same type of product.
The main characteristic is that the lock is operated electronically with a numerical code.
This differs from a traditional safe that is opened exclusively with a mechanical key.
With the Stark's models in this collection, you get both options: electronic access via the combination lock and an emergency key as an alternative.
Small safe
Do you only need limited storage space? Then a small safe might be sufficient.
The most compact size in the current range has external dimensions of 17×30×17 cm. There is also a model measuring 31×20×20 cm.
A compact safe is easier to place in a smaller space.
Always check the internal dimensions, however. The external dimensions do not accurately tell you how much usable space you have inside.
Safe 17×30×17 cm
The Stark's electronic safe measuring 17×30×17 cm is the most compact model in the current collection.
This size can be interesting if you primarily want to store smaller valuables and don't need a large safe.
Before purchasing, measure both the available space and the items you want to store in the safe.
This prevents you from discovering after purchase that the desired items do not fit properly.
Safe 31×20×20 cm
The 31×20×20 cm version is also among the more compact options in the range.
This model combines an electronic numerical code with an emergency key and is offered as a money and jewelry safe.
Which shape and dimensions are most convenient depends on where you want to install the safe and the items you want to store in it.
Safe 25×35×25 cm
Want a bit more space? Then you can look at the Stark's safe measuring 25×35×25 cm.
By comparing different sizes side-by-side, you can choose a model that offers sufficient space without being unnecessarily large.
Also consider any future items you might want to add to the safe later.
A little extra space can then be practical.
Large electronic safe
If you need more storage space, larger versions are available.
Within the current range, you will find safes measuring 30×38×30 cm and 30×35×50 cm, among others.
A larger model may be more interesting if you want to store multiple valuables together.
Keep in mind that a larger safe also requires more space for placement.
Safe 30×38×30 cm
The Stark's electronic safe measuring 30×38×30 cm is sized between the most compact and largest versions in the collection.
This size gives you more space than the smaller models and can therefore be suitable if you want to store various items together.
For this model too, always compare the internal dimensions and product specifications before ordering.
Safe 30×35×50 cm
The largest version in the current collection has external dimensions of 30×35×50 cm.
This model offers more size for those looking for a more spacious electronic safe.
Decide beforehand where you want to place the safe and accurately measure the available space.
Don't forget that you also need enough space to open the door completely.
What size safe do I need?
The best size is primarily determined by what you want to store.
Make a list of the most important items beforehand and see how much space they collectively take up.
Within the current range, you can choose from:
- 17×30×17 cm;
- 31×20×20 cm;
- 25×35×25 cm;
- 30×38×30 cm;
- 30×35×50 cm.
When making your choice, it is preferable to leave some extra space. This way, you won't have to buy a larger safe immediately if you want to store more items later.
Where do you place a safe?
Ideally, a safe should be placed in a suitable location where it stands stably and can be used correctly.
Think about accessibility beforehand. You want to be able to access the safe when needed, while the location doesn't have to be unnecessarily conspicuous.
Also, check the installation and mounting options of the specific model.
Always follow the supplied instructions for mounting and use mounting materials suitable for the relevant surface.
Mounting a safe
A loose safe can be moved depending on its size and weight. Therefore, how a safe can be mounted is an important consideration.
Before installation, check which mounting options the specific Stark's model offers and which surface is suitable for them.
If in doubt about mounting in a wall, floor, or other structural part, it is advisable to seek expert advice.
Correct installation is at least as important as choosing the safe itself.
Setting up an electronic safe
Before using an electronic safe, you must set the combination lock according to the instructions.
Choose a code that you can remember but that cannot be easily guessed by others.
For example, do not use an obvious combination such as 1234.
The exact procedure for setting and changing the code may vary per model. Therefore, always follow the manual of the chosen safe.
Safely store emergency key
The emergency key is intended to allow alternative access to the safe.
Therefore, do not store it inside the safe itself.
Choose another secure location that you can remember and where unauthorized persons do not have easy access.
Preferably, do not conspicuously label the key with information that directly indicates which safe it belongs to.
Electronic safe for documents
Do you want to store documents in a safe? First, check if the chosen model has enough internal space for the size of those documents.
For loose small papers, you need less space than for folders or documents that must remain completely flat.
Also, note that a regular electronic safe is not automatically fire or water-resistant. This requires specific tested properties and classifications.
Therefore, always choose a safe based on the protection you actually need.
Is an electronic safe fireproof?
Not every electronic safe is automatically fireproof.
An electronic combination lock only indicates how the safe is opened. Fire resistance is a separate property that must be substantiated with specific tests and classifications.
Do you specifically need a fireproof safe for important documents? Then check whether the model in question demonstrably has the desired fire resistance classification.
Do not rely solely on the appearance or weight of a safe.
Electronic safe or key safe?
With a traditional safe that only has a key lock, you need the key every time to open the safe.
An electronic safe can be opened via a numerical code.
The current Stark's models combine both possibilities by having an emergency key in addition to the electronic lock.
This allows for daily use with a code while an alternative access method is available.
What to look for when buying an electronic safe?
Don't just look at the size. First, determine what level of protection you need and what you want to use the safe for.
Then, pay attention to the dimensions, internal space, lock type, emergency access, mounting options, and installation, among other things.
If you want specific protection against, for example, fire or water, explicitly check whether the chosen product has demonstrably been tested and certified for this.
