Jewelry Safes

How To Improve The Effectiveness Of Jewelry Safes

Jewelry safes are often used to keep priceless family heirlooms safe from prying eyes and from the possible attention of would be thieves and potential intruders, and they can also be used for the safe storage of items which are worn day to day. Long term storage safes can be located in areas which are difficult to access, where the safe can be hidden, and where they can be further protected from damage or illegitimate access. For short term storage, quicker access is needed, and the accent is more on camouflage than on the tightest security.

Which Jewelry Safe is Best

A safe which is designed to store priceless jewelry for the long term needs to be as resistant to damage and intrusion as it can be. It also needs to be further protected by other enhancements which are added to it. Even in a home where an entire family lives, there will be times when no-one is at home for long periods of time and the property will be vulnerable. An intruder will have a long time in which to try to crack open a safe and remove its contents. This time can be cut drastically if you have system which is able to sense the intruder and send a warning message to the property owner.

This system will be more effective yet if there are security cameras which transmit pictures to a remote location. Even if the thief destroys the camera completely and removes all electronic equipment connected to it, it will still be too late to stop the pictures being transmitted. This combination of security devices makes it considerably harder for a potential thief to be able to attack the safe undisturbed, and if the thief does not know of their existence in advance they can act as a very effective trap.

The jewelry safes themselves still need to be as difficult as possible for an intruder to penetrate, and locking technology is constantly improving. The old mechanical combination lock was effective in most cases, but experienced safe breakers were able to reverse engineer the code and open the safe. This is far harder to do with digital keypad entry systems, and the development of biometric safes will take security to a completely new level. This technology allows for the recognition of an individual fingerprint, making it virtually impossible for an intruder to duplicate the signal given to the safe entry reader.

This degree of security should always be used for jewelry which is of sentimental as well as financial value, but it can be too extreme for jewelry which is worn every day. There are safes which will not give you anything like the same degree of protection as a proper large safe, but which will be undetectable by a casual intruder yet still give easy and quick access. Many of these safes are made to look like electric sockets, so they can be fitted to the wall and be completely camouflaged. They will still have a lock and key entry so they are easy to access.

Installing jewelry safes is a job for someone who makes this type of work a specialty, as it needs to be carried out with precision to prevent the possibility of the safe being removed completely by a potential thief. A safe embedded in the floor of a basement or cellar is the hardest to remove, and this location also gives you the greatest degree of protection against damage from fire. Even though jewelry is far more hard wearing than paper or some of the other valuables stored in safes, it can still become discolored with heat. Fire is another important consideration with jewelry safes.
