Frequently Asked Questions
What type of safe is best for storing cash in a business?
For businesses, the best safe for storing cash is a deposit safe or drop safe with an anti-fishing mechanism, reinforced steel body, and digital or dual-lock access. These are ideal for retail stores, petrol stations, and restaurants. Avansa’s cash safes are purpose-built for South African business environments where secure daily deposits are essential.
Do cash safes offer fire protection as well?
Yes, many cash safes include fire-resistant insulation that protects contents during short-duration fires (typically 30–120 minutes). For businesses that need both fire and burglary protection, Avansa offers dual-rated safes that safeguard both valuables and cash against multiple threats.
What cash safe do I need to meet my insurance requirements?
Most insurance providers require your cash safe to have a specific cash rating, which defines the maximum amount of money it can store and still be covered. For example, a safe with a cash rating of R50,000 is typically approved to store that amount overnight. Avansa offers a wide range of insurance-compliant safes in different grades, and can help match your business’s risk profile to an appropriate model.
