Hotel safes are devices used to store valuables in hotel rooms. They are secured with a code that the guest sets himself or receives from the reception. Hotel safes provide security and convenience for guests who do not have to worry about the loss or theft of their documents, money, jewellery or electronic equipment. Hotel safes are usually made of sturdy metal and mounted in a cupboard or wall. Their capacity and dimensions can vary depending on the needs and standards of the hotel. Hotel safes are easy to use and do not require any additional charges for use.
What do hotel safes need to be used for?

How do hotel safes work?
Hotel safes, although similar in form and purpose to burglar safes, are a completely different product group. Yes, they are used to store valuables, such as jewellery, but they are used by hundreds of guests per year, not just one person. Therefore, the use of such a safe is somewhat different.
The safe can be accessed via an electronic lock and, upon check-in, the safe is left open for guests. The safe is locked with a single-use code; the code the guest uses to lock it and open it, but can choose a completely different code next time.
There is, of course, an emergency opening option. Depending on the model chosen, this is an emergency code, a physical key, or both. Of course, the emergency codes are available to hotel staff in case of problems reported by guests.
