There’s an old saying, “Better Safe than Sorry” that reminds us to spend the time up front, be cautious and be prepared rather than suffer the feeling of regret about one’s carelessness later. We do this every day without us thinking so that we feel protected and secured: we look before we cross the road, we wash our hands before we eat, we lock our door before we leave our home and store our important belongings out of sight. However, things are often overlooked when it comes to protecting our valuables from disaster, especially fire!
Statistics from International Association of Fire and Rescue Services show that in 2017, there were more than 3 million reported fire incidents across 34 countries and a total population of more than 1 billion people. That’s nearly 3 fires for every 1000 person (size of a small community or just an apartment block!). That’s a fire incident every 10 seconds (just imagine a fire starting at the start of a 100m dash and another fire happening again before you cross the finish line, unless you are Usain Bolt!)
The numbers are shocking and raise an alarm that we need to be better prepared, we “Better be Fireproof Safe than Sorry”, because our valuables, documents and memorabilia are vulnerable if not properly protected. A Fireproof Safe is a storage unit that protects its content in the event of a fire and is a good choice in giving you a peace of mind and protecting you where it’s needed the most. A Fireproof Safe or Chest is constructed with a layer of protective insulation that keeps the interior space at tolerable temperatures within a timeframe during a blazing fire where the storage unit is attacked externally from smoke, flames, dust and hot gases. External temperatures in a fire can go upwards of hundreds of degrees while contents inside a quality fireproof safe stays protected.
For a small outlay compared to the priceless items that you treasure, it is a simple choice in order to protect the irreplaceable because once it lights up, it would truly be gone forever.
