Wall safes are smaller shallow metal safes with a hinged door on the front that are embedded within the fabric of your wall or chimney breast. This is the type of safe that you might see in the movies or on television where a painting is slid to one side to reveal the wall safe hidden behind.

The installation of a wall safe is far more invasive and messier as the plaster and bricks have to be removed to create a cavity large enough for the wall safe to fit into. The wall safe is then installed into the cavity and then cemented/concreated almost flush into the wall. Then plaster is used to bring the wall safe flush with the surrounding wall. Finally, the area will require re-decoration and then your painting to disguise the safe will need to be hung.

We sell wall safes (see below) but do not install wall safes, best left to a qualified builder, but we do have a handy guide, click here
