VAULT AND STRONG ROOMS

A vault room is a secure space where money, valuables, records, and documents can be stored. Vaults protect their contents with armored walls and a tightly fashioned door closed with a complex lock. Vault technology developed in a type of arms race with bank robbers. Modern vaults may be armed with a wide array of alarms and anti-theft devices.

Simply Safes in partnership with Burton Safes are pleased to provide a cost effective solution for the provision of Strong Rooms / Vaults , with a choice of 4 security grades: V, VI, IX and X1 - all tested and certified to EN1143. Modular in design and purpose built to suit almost any application. Other security grades are available as well.

Standard Panels are 2500mm x 500mm - although we can bespoke make panels to suit any requirement, they have a special interlocking design and are welded together on site. Shock sensors, interlock detectors, ventilation and electricity ducts are all options readily available. The room can be provided as a 5 sided unit or indeed 6 for the most demanding of security environments.

The door itself is usually delivered with frame intact as a complete unit - left or right hand hinged as required and with the added security of internal grill gates if required -whether you require key locking or the very latest in electronic locking technology we can provide the solution.

Call us today on (01634) 294432 and we can put together a draft quotation for you from provided sizes or indeed a no obligation survey can be requested (a full site survey is always required for final quoting puproses).
