European Security Systems Association (ESSA) e. V.’s Post

What type of #safe do I need? This depends on the individual requirements – what do I want to protect, and what will my security requirements be in the future? Besides cash, also watches and jewellery, electronic devices to Pokémon cards are coveted by thieves. Therefore, the safe should be big enough for notebooks, smart phones, digital cameras and other high-tech products. Buy bigger than currently needed, as your need of storing items will certainly grow. A safe does not automatically protect against fire as well. And a fire-resistant product does not automatically protect against theft. For #burglary protection: check that your safe is certified by an accredited body and refers to the European Safe Standard EN 1143-1. For #fire #resistance: check that a reference to EN 1047-1 or EN 15659 is made. If you want fire and burglary, two standards must be indicated.
