Deposit Safes
Deposit safes are designed for use in a commercial environment where cash or receipts need to be deposited securely by members of staff but not be given full access to the safe. They are also known as a drop safe.
A deposit safe will have a deposit slot typically at the top for quick and easy drops of cash at the end of the day or week.

Deposit Safes
Cash deposit safes come in various different sizes and also differing security levels. We are also able to offer deposit safes that go through a wall if required. Under the counter money safes for shops or businesses are one of the most popular we sell.
We find locations such as shops, pubs, restaurants, hotels, schools and local council offices are the most popular environments that require a deposit safe or drop safe. The benefits to these types of places are that they offer peace of mind for staff and also for management that the items deposited will be secure.
Locking Type on a Deposit Safe
Normally team leaders or managers will be granted access to the drop safe and this will usually be with either a key or electronic lock.
Before purchasing a deposit safe, it is important to determine the lock type you require on the safe. If your business or management need regular access to the safe from multiple different users then we would recommend to choose a drop safe with an electronic lock as you will not have the issue of the key location.
Capacity and Deposit Slot
Another important factor when selecting a safe is the type of capacity you require for deposits within your business. We offer a wide range of deposit safes from small to large internal capacity. Before purchase please double check on the minimum you require in terms of volume for deposits, each safe will have the internal dimensions information available on the product page.
Also please consider the type of deposit slot would fit in best with your business as we have options such as letter slot, drawer and chute to choose from.
Insurance Rating
The insurance rating on a deposit safe is very important in the decision making process when selecting a safe. You would always want to calculate and work out the value of cash or valuables being deposited overnight, as if you store cash that exceeds the insurance rating stated on the safe then it may not be covered by your insurance company.
We have a selection ranging from £1,000 Cash / £10,000 Valuables right up to the high security deposit safes which have the insurance rating of £35,000 Cash / £350,000 Valuables.
Installation of a Deposit Safe
We always recommend you ensure the cash drop safe you purchase is bolted down securely so as to prevent thieves from making off with valuable cash or items which have been deposited.
Please contact our team if you would like any further information on installations or quotations for deposit safes.
DID YOU KNOW? Some deposit safes or drop safes have a lock on the top drawer and also on the main door below. These usually come with a separate key lock on each, these can be upgraded to an electronic lock on both if needed. This means that staff members will not require keys to deposit items into the safe.
