Value Safes

Depository safes can accept deposits without having to open the safe.  This can be useful if you don’t want to grant access to the safe to your employees, or if your business deals with large amounts of cash — the cash can easily be deposited periodically throughout the day.  Depository safes have a slot or opening  on the front or top of the safe for making deposits.  Some have a rotary hopper like a corner mailbox.

Inside, baffles are attached to these openings in order to keep someone from “fishing” the contents back out of the safe.  It’s a good idea, however, to move the contents of a depository safe to a more secure location at night — because of the opening they’re not considered to be burglary proof.  For more information on depository safes.

If your business handles large amounts of cash or small valuables such as jewelry or coins, you could benefit from a depository safe.  Depository safes are designed to allow small items to be deposited into them without having to open the safe.  This way you don’t have to give your employees the combination to the safe.  If you deposit cash or other valuables throughout the day, then there’s less exposure if you’re robbed.

Depository safes usually have a slot in the top or front of the safe, or use a rotary hopper mechanism like a mailbox.  They have baffles attached to the openings to keep someone from “fishing” the contents back out through the opening.  It’s best to move the contents of a depository safe to a more secure location when your business is not open, as they are not very burglary-resistant.  For more information on the depository safe.
