The Perfect Safe by GRUBER: How to Choose the Ideal Safe for Your Needs

Which Are the Best Safes? It Depends on Your Needs

Choosing the right safe is not a decision to take lightly. At GRUBER, we specialize in offering tailored security solutions that adapt to each client’s specific needs — whether for a private residence, retail space, luxury apartment, hotel, or office. With decades of experience, we understand that the perfect safe must meet strict resistance, usability, and certification criteria.

Understanding Your Needs First

To provide you with the most suitable safe, our experts begin by identifying key factors:

  • What will be stored? (Cash, documents, jewelry, weapons, digital devices…)
  • Where will it be installed? (Wall, floor, visible, or hidden)
  • What risks are you protecting against? (Burglary, fire, unauthorized access, sabotage)
  • Do you require regulatory compliance or specific certifications?

Types of Safes: Which One is Right for You?

We manufacture a wide variety of safes, each designed with specific use cases and levels of protection in mind:

  • Home Safes – Compact and elegant, perfect for storing valuables in residences.
  • Wall Safes – Ideal for hidden installations behind furniture or artwork.
  • Floor Safes – Discreet and extremely secure, embedded directly into the floor.
  • Fireproof Safes – Essential for protecting documents and digital media against fire damage.
  • Security Safes – Multipurpose, reinforced safes suitable for homes or small businesses.
  • Certified Safes – Tested under the UNE EN 1143-1 standard for insurance compliance and maximum resistance.
  • Deposit Safes – Perfect for retail or hospitality, allowing cash to be deposited without opening the safe.
  • Cash Safes – Designed for securing large sums in high-turnover environments.
  • Hotel Safes – Convenient, secure and user-friendly options for guest rooms.
  • Luxury Safes – Where functionality meets elegance; ideal for watch collectors, jewelry and private clients.
  • Secret Safes – Covert safes integrated seamlessly into furniture or walls.
  • Video Safes – Reinforced protection for digital content, surveillance footage or hard drives.

Security Ratings and Certifications

The level of certified resistance a safe offers is critical. We recommend safes tested under the UNE EN 1143-1 standard, which defines resistance levels from Grade 0 to Grade 6. Our certified safes guarantee burglary resistance using resistance units (RU) as testing metrics. Fire resistance follows EN 1047-1 standards.

Locking Systems and Mechanisms

Locks define access control. At GRUBER, we provide options to meet every user profile:

  • High-security key locks (EN 1300 certified)
  • Electronic combination locks
  • Digital locks with time delay and time programming
  • Biometric fingerprint locks

Our professionals assess whether you require a VdS Class 1 or Class 2 lock depending on your threat level and access requirements.

Choosing the right safe is more than comparing specs — it’s about understanding your real security risk. That’s why we offer personal assistance from trained professionals who help you:
