Guard against burglars and thieves with a SentrySafe X055 Security Safe. Give yourself peace-of-mind, knowing that your valuable and sentimental articles are protected.
Unfortunately, the economic recession has brought more than just lost fortunes — it has brought desperation into many people’s lives. Desperation leads people to do terrible things, and has led to an increase in burglaries in recent years. Many of us know someone who has had something stolen, and the effect that can have on their life.
The X055 is the perfect size for smaller items: jewelry, photographs, memory cards, CDs or important documents. Its interior measures 8.5″ x 13.6″ x 8.7″ (height x width x depth), equivalent to 1/2 cubic feet capacity. It is small enough to be easily concealed, yet large enough to store your smaller items. Its floor is carpeted to protect your delicate valuables from scratches, yet its solid-steel structure is strong enough to resist persistent thieves. It also includes the mounting hardware necessary to attach it to a floor or other solid structure.
The hardened steel lock plate protects the electronic lock from tampering, resisting drilling or prying. It has a pair of live-locking bolts, and its door has concealed hinges and is pry-resistant. It comes with two keys, which can override the electronic lock in case the batteries are worn-down or you forget the code. Its electronic lock is programmable with a code of 2-8 digits, with three LEDs to indicate status.
Choosing a code is the first step setting-up your safe. The code you choose should be something you can remember, but it shouldn’t be a number anyone else would know (birthday or anniversary). Sequences of numbers should also be avoided (1234 or 9876). Your safe should be mounted securely (using the included hardware) to prevent a would-be thief from taking your safe to open at his leisure. Suitable surfaces would be the floor or a heavy piece of furniture. It could even be attached to a wall, but you should be sure to secure it to a stud (not the drywall or plaster).
Also important is your safe’s location. Your safe should not be the talk of the neighborhood, proudly displayed on the coffee table. It should be concealed out of the way. Good places include basements, attics, closets, or inside of cabinets. It could also be attached to a heavy desk or table that is unlikely to be removed by a single burglar.
The two keys also deserve great consideration. They should not be in an obvious place (like a key-ring) or even in the same room as the safe. It’s worth considering putting one of the keys in a safe-deposit box. The other should be hidden on an overhang, in a cookie jar or in the sugar container. Someplace no one would think to look (except you, of course).
Your SentrySafe X055 Security Safe can help to put you at ease, knowing your personal and valuable articles and heirlooms are protected. (The preceding suggestions are by no means complete, and no safe can provide 100% security)
