· Make sure the price fits the budget. Do not spend money on unusable features.
· Measure the installation space. Small safes are 24 inches by 18 inches. The larger safes go up to 48 inches by 24 inches.
· Choose between a combination keypad and a key-entry system.
· Evaluate the inside storage. Confirm the safe could accommodate your. Examine storage configuration. For instance, you might want a safe fitted with shelves and drawers for organizing your belongings.
· See if the weight will require you to strengthen the floor. Most safes weigh between 200 and 100 pounds. Larger ones can weigh 750 pounds, and need a concrete floor.
· See the safe's burglary resistance. That indicates how hard it is for burglars to compromise your safe. Some require 2 keys. Others require fingerprints, or have a glass which prevents drilling.
· See if this safe has a battery-backup system.
· A timer will be useful. Some electronic safes are opened only at specific times. That limits burglar interference.
· Confirm this safe could be hooked to the security system. Many electronic safes could be monitored by the security monitoring company.
