Putney 60K Size 1 Digital Safe Installed in Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire

(case study 02121)

Why the Putney 60K Size 1 Was Recommended

London & Home Counties Safes supplied and professionally installed a Putney 60K Size 1 Digital Safe for a customer in Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire MK44.

The customer required a compact Eurograde safe with electronic access for watches, jewellery, cash, documents and other household valuables.

The safe was positioned discreetly within a storage room at the property.

EN 1143-1 Grade 0 Security Certification

The Putney 60K is independently attack-tested and certified by ECB-S to EN 1143-1 Grade 0. It is normally assigned a recommended insurance rating of £6,000 for cash or £60,000 for valuables.

Customers should confirm the required grade, monetary rating and installation conditions with their own insurer before purchasing.

Certified 30-Minute Document Fire Protection

The safe is also independently tested and certified by ECB-S to EN 15659 LFS 30P, providing 30 minutes of certified fire protection for paper documents.

Compact Size with Removable Shelf

The Size 1 measures 300mm high, 400mm wide and 300mm deep externally, with approximately 26mm additional projection for the hinges. Its internal dimensions are 215mm high, 320mm wide and 165mm deep.

The safe weighs 65kg and provides 11 litres of internal storage. One removable shelf allows smaller valuables and documents to be organised across two levels.

Positioned Discreetly Within a Storage Room

The selected position provided access to both the floor and the structural masonry wall required for the recorded fixing arrangement.

Two Additional Base Fixings into the Floor

Two fixings were installed through the safe’s two base fixing holes and into the floor.

The original installation record does not identify the floor material or describe the base fixings as expanding anchors, so no further substrate or anchor detail has been assumed.

One Rear Expanding Anchor into the Masonry Wall

The principal structural wall fixing was one high-strength expanding anchor installed through the safe’s rear fixing hole and into the structural masonry wall behind it.

The rear expanding anchor provided a direct structural connection to the masonry wall. The two additional base fixings helped support and stabilise the safe from below.

Together, the rear and base fixings helped resist the safe being pulled forward, lifted or moved from its installed position.

Electronic Lock Programming and Customer Handover

The safe is operated using a high-security electronic keypad and a personal access code.

Once the installation was complete, we demonstrated the electronic locking system and showed the customer how to programme their main access code.

External 9V Emergency Power Procedure

We also demonstrated the external emergency-power procedure. If the internal battery becomes depleted, a standard 9V battery can be held against the terminals on the front of the keypad.

This temporarily powers the lock so the customer can enter their existing code, open the safe and replace the internal battery.

This procedure does not bypass the electronic lock: the customer’s normal access code is still required.
