The benefits of an electronic safe - something you may not know


Aesthetically, A digital safe differs from the classic models, mostly because of the lock complexion. Given several options to secure money, documents, or other valuables, a safe with an electronic lock significantly increases security. Unlike mechanical lock safes, those models keep owners away from several problems. You don't need a key to unlock your safe because now you have a digital lock with a combination. It's not the only reason to choose an electronic digital safe. Keep reading this post and we, Sure Lock & Key, will provide you with a number of important advantages regarding electronic safes.

Durability and reliability


Electronic digital safes have a higher resistance level. The risk of wear and tear is lower than on classical safes, provided the proper maintenance and care are kept. Ensuring that your safe is in the proper condition will help to minimize the risk. An example of a potential problem would be to install it in a place with high humidity. The reason being that the lock, which is the core part of the safe, is controlled by a computer and multiple chips, which might get damaged by moisture.

Density means comfort


If you aren't sure of the reasons as to why you may need to invest in a safe, or as to what type or size of a safe you would need, let us assist you in arriving at your best solution. What would you prefer, keeping your documents and money on the table or inside the safe where only you have access to them? The obvious truth is that in the vast majority of scenarios you would prefer a safe. However , there is no need to get a massive safe, especially if you want to keep your money or documents there. So in this scenario choosing a small electronic safe would be the logical choice. You can place it on the table or the floor in your office. The main consideration is to make sure that it's comfortable for you to use and that it is secure. You may want to bolt it down so that someone having access can’t just walk away with it.

Manage access


If an electronic digital safe is required for two or more people, a manager can control the access and see who is using it. Each person has a specific code that allows them to use the safe. The owner can delete or lock out the other users anytime, so the risk of a possible theft is very low. Some electronic safe locks have a time delay, so you can manage the exact time when the safe will remain unlocked (for example, during holidays).

A wrong try penalty


If the person entered 5 invalid codes in a row, a “wrong try penalty” activates. The number of tries and the amount of time it lasts differs depending on the safe model. That function was created to win you time. The thief will have to stop and give up or search for other opening methods. The best part about it is that, when the penalty is over, you can use your safe again if the thief wasn’t too violent in his entry attempt.. However, the robber is unlikely the person who will try to open your safe carefully, so damage, unfortunately, is possible. Professional safe locksmith services may be what you need to deal with the consequences.
