Do I Need A Safe In My Home?

A safe is one of those small but significant additions to your home security that can make a material difference to the losses you suffer if your home is broken into. If you own a gun, you may find that a safe may provide an additional layer of safety for your family. There are plenty of good reasons for getting a safe.

  • A safe can protect smaller items

You can password-protect your computer. You could install an alarm system throughout the rest of your house. But some of the most valuable items you own are difficult or impossible to replace like your identity papers and family heirlooms.

There is a thriving black market for false identification and social security details. Even if they don’t get anything else from your home, accessing these could be profitable for thieves.

Your jewelry and family heirlooms are also expensive items. Beyond their financial worth, these objects have sentimental value that makes them priceless.

A safe is perfect for protecting items like these. It fits in a small space. It’s designed to be unobtrusive and missed by thieves. Even if they find it, they’ll need the combination or code to access it.

  • A safe can offer fire protection

If you own a business, you will have transaction records that are irreplaceable. Why not protect them with a fire safe? Like gun safes, they have extra features built into them. They are resistant to very high temperatures and significant water damage.

  • A safe can hide away dangerous objects

Gun safety is a serious issue in the US. According to the Nationwide Children’s Organization. 1,300 children die of shootings at home every year. The gun you bring into your home to protect your family could result in tragedy.

A gun stolen from your home can also find its way to a crime scene.

If you own a gun, consider locking it away with a specialty gun safe. These are built with additional specifications. They have thicker steel, more secure lock options, such as fingerprint recognition, and are fire and water-resistant.

    Our Tips For Getting The Best Locksmith Services In Miami FL:

    We truly care about your security. Keeping you, your family and your most valuable possessions safe is why we are in business. However, whenever you are looking to hire a residential locksmith service, here are some valuable tips to make the right choice.

    FAQ

    HOW DO I KNOW WHETHER MY MIAMI LOCKSMITH IS CERTIFIED?
    When a Miami locksmith completes their official application process, they are issued with a Locksmith ID car. Locksmiths in Miami are required to display this card at all times when performing any services, regardless of the location.
    HOW LONG WILL A LOCKSMITH TAKE TO ARRIVE?
    When you’re working with the Quickly Locksmith Miami team, you can expect someone to arrive at your exact location within 15 minutes. This ensures we can get you back into your home or car as soon as possible.
    WHAT DOES A CERTIFICATION GUARANTEE?
    Your certified Miami locksmith’s work comes with a complete warranty for your locks, your property (doors/ hallways, etc.), and of course your well-being. If anything happens you share no liability, and your locks & security systems are 100% insured.
    CAN A MIAMI LOCKSMITH OPEN ALL LOCKS?
    A locksmith that has the right tools and years of experience can open almost any lock. If that’s not an option, the lock can always be replaced. Either way, your home and valuables will be safe and secure.
    CAN AN AUTO LOCKSMITH CREATE A SPARE KEY AT MY LOCATION?
    When you are locked out of your car, the last thing you want to do is arrange a ride to a locksmith shop. The Quickly Locksmith Miami mobile unit will not only meet you at your location but also help you with a replacement car key on the spot.
    DO I NEED THE ORIGINAL KEY TO MAKE A KEY COPY?
    Not necessarily. If your original key has been lost or is damaged, a Miami locksmith can use a code cutter to identify the depth of grooves in a lock’s key code. This information can then be used to create a new key.
