Many of us believe that the safest place for our valuables is the bank, after all a bank safe deposit box has 24-hour security and alarm systems.
But the contents of a bank safe deposit box are often not insured, whereas the items in your security safe at home will usually be insured under your household insurance.
It's also not a great idea to store important documents you made need immediate access to, as bank safe deposit boxes are usually only accessible during bank opening hours and boxes are often sealed upon notice of death. To open a sealed box will usually requires estate representatives to provide court papers to the bank.
For these reasons, it's a good idea to have fire proof security safes in your home.
Below are suggestions for what to keep in it:
Property insurance details should be kept close to hand in case your home is damaged and you need to file a claim quickly.
Passports and birth certificates can also be kept in a home security safe, this can be useful if you need to establish the identity of yourself or a family member.
For peace of mind it can be very useful to keep a digital copy of any family photos on a CD or hard drive, that way if there is a flood or fire you will still have your family memories safely stored away.
Keeping copies of important legal documents, including health care policies and living wills, at home may become helpful for yourself or anyone else for whom you are designated attorney-in-fact or health care surrogate. Having these at home can help to ensure the protection they were produced to give.
If you do have valuables in a safe deposit box at a bank, keeping your keys safe is essential - so keep them locked away in your own safe.
A security safe can also be the perfect place to store important information such as family doctors details and any prescription medication information. This could also include documents relating to investments, retirement, bank accounts and any connected contact information.
Any jewellery and other valuables that you want access regularly can also be stored in the safe. Along with spare keys and information about your vehicles, were they will be readily available should you need to access them quickly.
It can be useful to keep a small amount of cash in your security to safe for any emergencies.
