What should you pay attention to when buying a home safe?

Home security is inseparable from safes, and nowadays, citizens can choose safes according to the size of the items they need to store. Safes not only serve as anti-theft containers but also function as furniture. Nowadays, safes keep up with trends, incorporating new technologies, featuring more user-friendly designs, and boasting more attractive appearances. An appliance salesperson reminds citizens that when purchasing a safe, they should choose the appropriate size and function based on the type, quantity, and size of the items to be stored to avoid unnecessary waste caused by buying the wrong or unsuitable option. They should also choose the most suitable lock based on personal preferences and usage habits, and be careful not to buy a semi-steel safe. So what should you pay attention to when buying a safe? Below, the technical staff of Xieli Office Furniture will explain the issues to consider when selecting a safe! First: Recognize the CCC certification of the safe.

As citizens become more security-conscious, more and more Zhengzhou residents are setting up safes. They want to find a safe and secure place to store documents, property certificates, stamps, calligraphy and paintings, securities, bank deposit slips, and even physical items such as laptops, cameras, watches, antiques, and gold and silver jewelry.

The expanding demand has also led to a growing market. Reporters observed in some large stores that safes of various shapes and sizes were prominently displayed alongside modern office supplies. In one store, although safes were placed on a corner on the first floor, they still occupied an entire wall. According to a salesperson from an appliance store, safes can be categorized by type of security, such as fireproof safes, burglarproof safes, and anti-magnetic safes. The most important feature of a home burglarproof safe is its anti-vandalism capability, along with alarm functions.

In addition, it should be noted that although there is only a one-word difference between " safe " and " deposit box " , their performance is very different. Deposit boxes have very weak anti-theft function and can only be used to store general private items. Real valuables must be stored in a safe.

If you are buying a safe, be sure to check if it has CCC certification on the body. Also, pay attention to the product specifications, which include door thickness, body thickness, and lock type, etc. During acceptance, try to measure the door thickness to ensure it matches the specifications, as many products on the market claiming CCC certification actually fail to meet basic standards. Second: Choose a suitable combination lock.

Common password methods used in safes on the market include mechanical, electronic, card-swipe, fingerprint, and remote control. A salesperson at a store told reporters that some stores now combine key control and electronic passwords, requiring the key to be inserted while unlocking with the password. Some safes cannot be opened without power; they must be charged first, providing double protection for enhanced security. Xieli, based in the Xi'an safe market, offers professional safe services for your needs in Xi'an! For forgetful people, those who dislike hassle, or those who prioritize security over convenience, different password methods offer different advantages. Therefore, it's important to understand which password method suits your needs when purchasing.

Someone compared the advantages and disadvantages of different passwords. Firstly, mechanical passwords are more stable and durable, and they don't require a power source. However, their operation is relatively complicated to learn.

The second more common type is electronic passwords, which have advantages such as fast operation and easy and convenient password modification. However, they are not as stable and durable as mechanical passwords.

The third type is a card-swipe lock, which allows you to open the safe with your own bank card. However, it has high requirements for the IC card, and it will not work if it is placed with something with a strong magnet.

The fourth, and newest, and most advanced, password method is fingerprint recognition, which offers strong security and is easy to use. However, it is said that fingerprint recognition technology is not yet mature enough for civilian application.

Issues consumers must pay attention to when purchasing a safe!

1. Buy a secure safe.

An appliance salesperson reminded consumers to pay attention to the following aspects when purchasing a safe: First, determine the safe's specifications and dimensions before buying. The size selection mainly considers two aspects: first, the size of the items to be stored; second, the weight. A safe that is too light will be easily moved by thieves. However, a safe shouldn't be too heavy either. If the floor is covered, an excessively heavy safe can damage the floor. It is recommended to buy a safe that can be secured.

Second: Beware of semi-steel safes

The most important factor when buying a safe is, of course, security. According to a sales representative for an electronics store, the vast majority of safes sold on the market are all-steel, but a few semi-steel safes are still available. The use of semi-steel safes is primarily to reduce production costs and increase profits. However, the anti-theft security performance of semi-steel safes is significantly inferior to that of all-steel safes.
