Fireproof Safes
Fireproof safes protect paper documents, certificates, contracts, passports, financial records, and other irreplaceable items from destruction in a fire. A house or office fire can reach temperatures far exceeding the point at which paper chars — approximately 177°C — within minutes of ignition. A certified fireproof safe maintains interior temperatures below this threshold for the rated duration, giving emergency services critical time to respond while contents remain intact.
Safegear's range of fireproof document safes is certified to EN 1047-1 or NT Fire 017 standards, providing independently verified fire resistance for a minimum of 60 minutes. Unlike basic home safes whose fire resistance is unverified, these certifications confirm performance through standardised testing — providing documented assurance that contents will survive a fire. The range covers compact home models through to large-capacity office units capable of storing A4 suspension files, binders, and substantial document volumes alongside valuables.
Fireproof safes are an essential precaution for any individual or organisation that holds documents which would be difficult or impossible to replace — including property deeds, wills, insurance certificates, financial records, identification documents, and business contracts. They are equally important for businesses with document retention obligations under GDPR, financial regulation, or industry-specific compliance requirements.
Available with electronic, key, and combination lock options, and in combined burglary and fire-rated versions for dual protection. Professional installation and anchoring is available across Europe and North America.
