Phoenix has an extensive range of products which are suitable for protection against theft and fire this week its Security Safes:

Safes that are designed to protect cash and valuables against theft are often rated by each manufacturer or designed to a standard that requires certification. The first safe tested for burglary resistance was 1923.  Phoenix have a number of high security burglary resistant safes that have ratings ranging from £1,000 overnight cash cover to £1 million valuable cover. 

When testing burglary safes the objective is to create an opening large enough to withdraw valuables, activate the locking mechanism so the door opens or to cut as many bolts from the door as necessary to pry it open before the time specified in the rating requirement expires. 

Depending on this outcome a safe manufacturer like Phoenix can then certify that safe.  For example, the Phoenix Fortress SS1180 series has an S2 security rating which certifies it to provide up to £4,000 cash cover or £40,000 valuable cover.  Phoenix also has safes that are tested to the prestigious Euro Grade standards, ranging from Grade 0 up to 5, which provide up to £1 million valuable cover. 

The main reason for achieving these standards is so insurance companies will agree to provide the owner with the necessary cover he requires.
