Burton Safes Torino S2 Size 3E Digital Safe installed in Romford, Greater London RM7
S2 Rated Digital Safe installed in Romford
(case study 02996)
A Roomy S2 Safe for a Bedroom Cupboard
Our customer in Romford wanted a digital safe with enough room for jewellery, watches, cash, passports and other household valuables, but wanted it kept discreetly inside an existing bedroom cupboard. After looking at the available space and the fixing surface behind it, we recommended the Burton Safes Torino S2 Size 3E Digital Safe.
The Torino Size 3E is independently attack tested and certified to EN14450 S2, with recommended insurance ratings of £4,000 for cash and £40,000 for valuables. It offers 47 litres of internal storage, one removable shelf and a flush-fitting digital keypad, which makes it particularly well suited to cupboards where every few millimetres of depth can matter.
Trimming the Skirting Before Fixing the Safe
Before the safe could be bolted to the wall, there was one small but important job to deal with. The skirting board behind the proposed position was preventing the rear of the safe from sitting as close to the brick wall as we wanted.
Our installer carefully trimmed the relevant section of skirting so the safe could be pushed further back towards the wall. It is the sort of detail that does not sound particularly important, but actually makes a real difference to the finished installation: the closer the safe sits to its structural fixing surface, the better.
Four Expanding Anchor Bolts into the Brick Wall
With the skirting dealt with and the safe sitting neatly back in the cupboard, the four rear fixing positions could be marked accurately. The safe was then moved away from the work area, the brickwork was drilled, and the fixing holes were prepared ready for the anchors.
The safe was then returned to position and secured through all four of its pre-drilled rear fixing holes using four heavy-duty expanding anchor bolts into the brick wall behind. Using all four rear fixing points gave the safe a direct structural fixing rather than relying on the cupboard itself. The safe was also the perfect height to fit just underneath the wooden shelf support around the back of the cupboard.
Neatly Installed and Ready to Use
Once installed, the Torino Size 3E sat neatly inside the bedroom cupboard, with the trimmed skirting allowing the body of the safe to sit much closer to the wall. The 47-litre interior provides a useful amount of space without the safe becoming too bulky for a domestic cupboard.
After the safe was installed, our installer showed the customer how to operate and programme the digital keypad so they were comfortable using it straight away.
The customer was then given their certificate of installation before our installer left.

About Romford, Greater London RM7
Romford is one of the principal town centres in the London Borough of Havering and developed from an historic Essex market town on the main route between London and Colchester. The settlement can be traced back to the medieval period, and a royal market charter was granted in 1247.
Romford Market has remained an important part of the town for centuries. Livestock, corn and other produce were historically traded there, and the large Market Place still forms a recognisable centre to the modern town.
The arrival of the railway in 1839 accelerated Romford's growth, while brewing and other industries became increasingly important during the nineteenth century. During the twentieth century the town expanded substantially as London's suburbs spread eastwards.
Among the local landmarks are St Edward the Confessor Church, Raphael Park and the historic Market Place. The River Rom also forms part of the area's geography and is closely associated with the development of the town's name.
Romford railway station is now served by the Elizabeth line as well as National Rail services, providing direct connections towards central London and Essex. The A12 and nearby A127 also give the RM7 area strong road connections across East London and the wider region.
Today Romford combines its long-standing market-town identity with a major retail, business and leisure centre serving Havering and the surrounding parts of Greater London and Essex.
