QUALITY MATTERS - STANDARDS
Cash Safes – Dudley safes adhere to recognised testing standards, such as the European grading system detailed below.

SIZE/DIMENSIONS
Safes are a long-term investment. Thus it is important to identify both your short & long term requirement before choosing a particular model.
You will need to consider both the internal and the external dimensions, in order to ensure that the safe will fit into its designated space. You also need to consider the amount of internal storage space required. For this reason, it can be helpful to have the measurements of the largest item you will place in the safe in order to get a sense of the minimum dimensions you will require.

Cash rating – this is the overnight cash rating given by the manufacturer (i.e. it is their view on what cover an insurer is likely to give).
Valuables cover - as a guide, insurers typically give up to 10 times (for the residential market) the cash rating for valuables, for instance, a 4K cash rating will give up to 40K for valuables (Always confirm with your insurer).
Euro-Grade - This system was devised by the insurance industry to give rating consistency Europe-wide. Where a safe has a Euro–grade insurers would give cover equal to the rating.
