Properly installed police-approved key safes are designed to resist break-in attempts. They feature reinforced construction, tamper-proof fixings, and secure locking mechanisms. Choosing a reputable brand and following the installation instructions reduces the likelihood of forced entry and makes key safes a much safer alternative to hiding keys under mats or in flowerpots.

High-quality key safes can be extremely safe for older adults, especially if they’re installed correctly and meet police-approved standards. They’re easy to operate, allowing family members or carers quick access in emergencies without compromising security. Look for a weatherproof, tamper-resistant design with clear instructions to ensure simple use and reliable protection.
Which Key Safes Are Police Approved in the UK?
Police-approved key safes generally have the Secured by Design accreditation, meaning they’ve been rigorously tested against forced entry. Examples include certain models from Burton and Squire. Before purchasing, check for official police-approved or Secured by Design labels to confirm compliance with UK standards.
How Secure Are Outdoor Key Safes?
When correctly installed in a discreet location, a weatherproof key safe can offer exceptional outdoor security. Models made with heavy-duty metal and featuring anti-tamper mechanisms are much harder to breach. Regularly checking the safe for wear and tear, as well as changing the code periodically, further enhances security.
How to Open Key Safes ?
Key safes typically use either a combination dial, digital keypad, or push-button lock. To open:
- Enter the correct code or PIN.
- Depress the release button if required.
- Pull or lift the cover to access the keys inside.
If you forget the code, some models include a backup override key. Otherwise, contact the manufacturer or a locksmith for assistance.
