When it comes down to choosing a fire-resistant solution for our valuables safe boxes are a very popular choice. Not everyone needs a big and super durable safe. It requires more space and often a special installment. Safe boxes on the other hand don’t take that much space. They are also portable so you can move them easily. Plus they are way cheaper. Yes, they do not provide the same level of protection but that’s because they serve a little bit different purpose.

A legal financial document, a passport, a health insurance policy, a birth certificate, photos – the list can be vast. And loosing these in a house fire is definitely something we all would like to avoid. Well, this is when a proper fireproof safe box comes in handy. The fact that safe boxes are really affordable make them extremely popular and manufacturers have long figured that out. There is a great variety of models on the market that combine great price and solid protection.
