🎯 Ideal Applications

The Avansa Truck Drop Safe – Slimline is ideally suited for businesses across Southern Africa that require robust mobile security for cash and valuables. This includes: cash-in-transit companies needing secure drop points; retail businesses with mobile sales units or those making bank deposits; logistics and delivery services handling cash on delivery; and any business requiring secure key management for vehicles or remote access points. Its slimline design makes it perfect for discreet installation in vans, trucks, and other commercial vehicles operating in busy urban centres like Johannesburg or rural areas of Zambia, ensuring assets are protected against theft during movement.

💡 How It Works

The Avansa Truck Drop Safe – Slimline operates with straightforward efficiency. To deposit cash or keys, simply insert them into the rotating slot. Once the items clear the slot, they drop securely into the main compartment of the safe, which is protected by an anti-fishing device that prevents retrieval through the deposit opening. Access to the deposited contents is then only possible via the main door, secured by a robust key-lock system. The safe is designed for easy installation using its pre-drilled holes, ensuring a stable and secure fit within your vehicle.
