All products come with an option including FREE UK Mainland delivery. Due to safes varying greatly in size and weight however, there are different ways in which you can receive your safe, the below provides further detail on all available services.
On all the individual product pages you will see a detailed breakdown of all delivery services available below is the terminology you will find across the site.
Nearly all of the safes sent to you on a Drop Off delivery service will be sent to you directly from the manufacturer. Based on the weight and courier company used, different delivery and tracking information will be available – you will find further details confirmed on specific product pages.
Next Working Day Deliveries
Most products can be delivered on the next working day on a Drop Off Delivery basis if ordered before 1pm. Most products that weigh less than 30kgs are also trackable with SMS messages and emails sent to contact details provided, advising of a 1 hour delivery slot on the morning of the delivery.
Full information on the delivery services available is provided on individual product pages.
Drop Off / Kerbside delivery
A Drop Off / Kerbside delivery is the quickest way we can ship the products to you. Items weighing less than 30kgs will be sent with a courier like service like DPD or UKMail. If your item weighs more than 30kgs it will be sent via a pallet delivery company and will deliver to your property. In the eventuality that there are steps to negotiate to your front door the delivery driver may have to “drop off” the item on the driveway or kerbside. In all instances the delivery company will make every attempt to deliver your product as expected, however negotiating steps and gravel driveways with pallet trucks and heavy safes can prove difficult and may result in the safe being delivered on the kerbside if present.
Should you wish for a more specialist service please contact one of our Safe Agents for support to discuss the Position or Installation service.
Position Delivery Service
A position delivery is where a specialist delivery crew will take the safe or product into your property and situate it on a ground floor location. Allowing for 1 step access into or within the property the crew will demount the item from the pallet, unwrap all packaging and place in your desired location. This service can also be provided for the same price to an upper floor should a suitable lift be available.
If a position delivery is required via the use of stairs please refer to the below or contact one of our Safe Agents for support.
Installation Service
An installation service will result in the safe being bolted to the floor or walls dependent on the available fixing points offered by the individual product and the material we can use to install the safe. The best material for a safe to be fixed to and the most commonly approved by insurance companies, is an installation that results in a bolt down into concrete.
Like a position delivery a ground floor installation will allow, on most occasions, for access or negotiation of 1 step.
If an installation service is required via the use of stairs please refer to the below or contact one of our Safe Agents for support.
Standard ground floor installation is a bolt down service into a concrete floor, should underfloor heating or pipes be in the area you wish to install the safe, this may prevent the bolt down being complete and will be aborted. Any aborted delivery will incur a charge to revisit & complete the installation. Please advise our sales agents, prior to delivery, if underfloor heating or exposed pipes are located in the area you wish to install your safe and we will advise on alternative solutions.
Delivery to an upper or floor via stairs
With our own in house crew (a rarity for online safe sellers) we can accommodate every type of delivery situation. For installation or position deliveries via stairs further information is required to provide a price for the delivery service.
We can accommodate a flat rate fee as best as possible if the stairs are straight and the weight of the safe is less than 300kg.
To ensure all information is covered please contact one of our Safe Agents for support.

Timed delivery and tracking information

Nearly all products weighing less than 30kgs will be sent via a trackable delivery method from DPD or UkMail and if a mobile number is provided with your order an SMS will be sent on the day of delivery indicating a 1 hour window the delivery will be made.
Position and installation services will be completed within a 7-10 working days from the date of the order and will be booked in with a phone call or email to advise of the delivery date.
Position and installation services are conducted from 8am onwards Monday – Friday. Following an order, customers will be provided with a delivery or installation slot (morning or afternoon) at the earliest opportunity. Our engineers will always call on the day to advise of a more accurate ETA.
