No todas las cajas
fuertes que se encuentran en el mercado están construidas de la misma
manera o con los mismos materiales. Haciendo una
referencia histórica, desde los años 50, se han fabricado a nivel
nacional, cajas fuertes muy livianas y que brindan una protección
escasa frente a las herramientas empleadas regularmente por los
delincuentes. Se puede constatar día a día a través de las noticias,
que estas cajas fuertes son violentadas con mucha facilidad y en cuestión
de pocos minutos.
Por el contrario,
todas las Cajas Fuertes Sterk®, llevan una capa aislante y otra reforzada contra ataques de amoladoras,
sopletes o perforadoras. Además la cerradura principal está equipada
con un sistema de rebloqueo, que, en caso de ser atacada, bloquea los
pasadores en un lugar incierto, frustrando los intentos para abrirla.
Además, tienen un acabado de pintura semi-brillante donde quedan
impresas las huellas digitales de los asaltantes para su posterior
identificación por los peritos de la
policía.
What
Size of Safe Do I Need? A central location to collect valuables is another benefit to owning a safe at home/office. Cash, plane tickets, deeds, certificates, photo albums, journals are stored in safes to help keep track of valuables and provide personal privacy.
The
size and color of the safe may depend upon where you want it installed.
Installation locations range from family rooms to bedrooms and from
garages to closets. The beauty of these safes are painted in a variety
of high gloss colors with classy detailing to match any décor. Outside
the home/office setting, many businesses are turning to security safes
to meet their security needs. Whether in an uptown office or in a
private business setting at home/office, the safe’s ability to improve
security during and after work hours helps relieve management stress
over potential theft, including internal theft.
The
number of retailers carrying residential security or gun safes is
expanding rapidly because of the growing demand. You can find a variety
of models and brands at safe outlets, sporting goods stores, locksmiths
and mass merchant retailers across the country. The market is even
growing internationally. Once
you get your new safe installed, your comfort level of protection will
increase knowing you've made an investment in protecting your future.
Buying a safe means now you'll have 24-hour in-home/office convenience
and easy access to your valuables and no monthly expenses. Having
important valuables close at hand compliments privacy to ensure security
of precious keepsakes you prefer others not know about. Just think, no
more security checks, keys to keep track of or restricted banking hours.
With a safe, you can get what you want, when you need it. There
are a lot of uncertainties in our world today, but one thing is for
sure. Owning your own safe can buy you more time and help you to relax
when you need it most—whether at home, at work, or on vacation.
Is
it a Safe or a Storage Cabinet? As you begin to shop around, you will notice a wide range of products available, especially when viewing catalogs. Many retailers begin by offering storage cabinets with a key lock for safes. Don’t be trapped into thinking a cabinet is all you need just to keep your valuables away from the kids. While cabinets can keep an inquisitive youngster at bay, it would only take several minutes for a thief to claim your possessions. Plus, if you desire fire protection, nearly all cabinets do not include fire protection. To
differenciate a safe from a storage cabinet the only thing you have to
look is the key. It should be more than 9 cm long.
Electronic
Lock or Combination Lock? Electronic locks with multiple user codes and monitoring capabilities are available when there are more employees or family members who need access to the safe. However, combination locks and key locks are more common in residential safes because they are more economical.
Why
Do People Think Safes are Expensive Items? You’d
think safes were expensive when you look at the beautiful paint job and
detailing. To the contrary, residential security or gun safes are quite
affordable. Prices range from $100 for the smaller home/office sized
models up to $5,000 for the highest fire rated, heaviest and high securitymodels.
Due
to the limitations of today's materials, all safe products are
susceptible to heat and fire damage when exposed to high temperatures
for extended periods of time. Thus, no safe product manufactured today
is considered "fire proof." Certain
materials can provide resistance to high temperatures for limited
periods of time. Safes properly constructed with these materials can be
classified as "fire resistant." Depending upon the materials
used and the methods of construction, safes can provide varying degrees
of fire resistance.
In
a home fire, the peak temperature and duration of the fire can vary
depending upon the size of the home, the materials used to construct the
home, the response time of firefighters, etc. It is estimated that the
typical peak temperature in a home fire ranges between 800 to 1200
degrees Fahrenheit. The typical time for firefighting authorities to
bring a home fire into containment is estimated at 30 to 60 minutes. Paper
chars at approximately 402°F. To protect paper documents, the internal
temperature of a safe must remain below 350°F while exposed to the
conditions of the typical home fire. Thus at a minimum, a safe should
provide enough fire resistance to keep the maximum internal temperature
of the safe below 350°F, when exposed to external temperatures of 1200°
for 30 minutes. Sterk® data fire safes provide protection from fire keeping the maximum internal temperature of the safe below 125°F, when exposed to external temperatures of 1200°F for 60 minutes. They are ideal for the safe storage of all computer media, magnetic tapes, disks, zips, etc.They also have a thermo-shock resistant valves system and a demolition resistant construction.
SU SEGURIDAD Y LA
SEGURIDAD DE SU HOGAR Día a día, debido a
los altos índices de inseguridad que estamos sufriendo, se está
recurriendo cada vez más a la adquisición de cajas fuertes
residenciales y comerciales para proteger desde herencias familiares
hasta documentos importantes de los efectos devastadores del robo o el
incendio.
Why Do I Need a Safe? Cuando adquiere una caja fuerte o un mueble de
seguridad lo que realmente está comprando es tiempo. Tiempo para
proteger sus valores de un delincuente. Police
reports indicate most thieves want to get their jobs done as quickly as
possible to reduce their chances of getting caught. Most break-ins are
the smash and grab type—getting their job done in 10 minutes or
less—and surprisingly between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. in the afternoon.
Young males, 18 to 26, most often commit these crimes. Their goal is to
be gone before police can respond to a home security system or a
neighbor’s phone call. A
residential security or gun safe compliments an alarm or surveillance
system by protecting the front-end of a break-in. Thieves know they
don’t have much time—so they smash, grab and take anything of value
to them. Experienced burglars are even bold enough to go about their
business with the alarm blaring away. And don’t think your neighbors
will come to the rescue. They would rather stay away than put themselves
in harms way. When a thief enters a home or office, the real deterrent seems to be the addition of a residential security or gun safe. Police reports indicate that when a thief sees a shiny, heavy-duty safe they generally leave without taking a thing. They're left to mumble, "Anything of value is probably in that safe and we don't have the time nor the tools, so let's just go to the next house."

during a home burglary, but they are actually fifth on the list. Stereo
equipment is fourth, followed by video equipment—grouped as TVs, VCRs
and cameras. Guns are the number one items stolen in a home burglary.
Can you guess what’s second? Booze and cigarettes! Go figure.

alarma. Mayor sea la seguridad que se implemente en una casa u oficina,
menores serán las probabilidades de ser blanco de estos crímenes. En algunas ocasiones, los ladrones intentan
extraer la caja fuerte de su sitio y llevársela para tener más
tiempo de abrirla. Pero la mayoría de las cajas son demasiado pesadas,
o están amuradas muy fuertemente y estos intentos fracasan. El objetivo de los fabricantes de cajas fuertes es
diseñar cajas con tantos mecanismos de defensa como se necesiten
para desalentar y demorar a los atacantes el mayor tiempo posible. La mayor parte de los ataques que se
realizan a una caja fuerte
tienen lugar en la puerta. Como sistema de defensa, los fabricantes instalan
placas reforzadas detrás de la combinación de la puerta, lo que
protege la cerradura y el mecanismo de cierre de un intento de perforación.
En caso de que se logre perforar la placa, se instalan medidas de
seguridad adicionales en la cerradura para trabar el mecanismo. Tanto las cerraduras mecánicas como algunas electrónicas poseen
sistemas de rebloqueo que traban el mecanismo de la caja cuando la
cerradura se intenta perforar o forzar. La mayoría de las Poseer una caja fuerte
no elimina por completo las posibilidades de que ocurran hechos
impredecibles, pero ayuda a evitar consecuencias trágicas cuando una
circunstancia amenazadora ocurre ¡nunca es demasiado tarde para empezar
a aumentar su seguridad! Another one of the timesaving benefits of a safe is their ability to preserve and extend the life of collectibles that are sensitive to light and humidity. When the love of a hobby turns into a collector’s business with values reaching into the thousands of dollars, a safe can help protect the value and original look. Stamps, coins, cards, statues, art, photos and many other collectibles located inside the safe are protected from damaging ultraviolet light.
