What Are Euro Grade Safes?
Euro Grade Safes are high-security safes independently tested and certified under EN 1143-1, the most recognised European burglary-resistance standard. Certification is granted only after physical attack testing using drilling equipment, cutting tools, thermal devices, and professional intrusion techniques. Each grade corresponds to a measured resistance value and determines the maximum insurable cash and valuables rating.
This certification ensures that Euro Grade Safes provide verified protection against real-world burglary threats, making them the preferred solution for insured storage of valuable assets.
