Insurance Ratings
of Safes
Insurance ratings for safes vary based on their use and the security measures in place. For instance, a safe in a private home often qualifies for a higher rating than the same model in a commercial environment. Additionally, connecting the safe to a certified burglar alarm system can potentially double the insurance rating. It’s advisable to check with your insurance provider to ensure the appropriate level of coverage.
Tip: Look for certifications from recognized institutions like VdS, ECB-S and VSÖ to maximize acceptance with insurers. Avoid unfamiliar labels, commonly seen on budget safes, to prevent complications in case of a claim.
