About
Diversion Safes
Thieves will, on average, spend
only five to eight minutes in a home that they are burglarizing. While it
is easy to dismiss this information- after all research proves that most people
don't respond to statistics personally, we'd like to go ahead and put it to you
this way... if broken into, a thief will most likely be in your home
from anywhere to five to eight minutes. In that time, they will most likely
go through all of the hiding spots where you are most likely to
keep the things most valuable to you- such as drawers, closets, cabinets, and under
beds. They will be moving quickly, so they will be looking for the most obvious
spots and in the most obvious places. The reason for this is because thieves
generally look for the easiest opportunities to get what they are looking for- namely
other people's stuff. Your stuff. If you happen to be fortunate or unfortunate enough to have one of
those expensive and sturdy small home safes, be prepared for the possibility the
thief may just go ahead and remove it where they can take it home and work on getting to what's inside
it at their own leisure.
The Best Diversion Safes are Hidden in Plain Sight
When we say most obvious, we mean that most thieves simply won't have the time or interest to look through
everything in your house... meaning they most likely won't look in
places that would be obviously irrelevant like popcorn cans, jars of peanut butter, dog food cans, soda cans,
books, ceramic bunnies, candles, CD cases, Scotch Guard cans, flower pots,
clothing starch cans, wall socket outlets, cans of liquid wrench or degreaser, cleanser containers, hairspray cans, shaving cream cans, or containers of
athlete's foot powder.
And yet, among those items just listed - like the can safe, book safe,
candle safe, or flowerpot safe- you can being to see the many choices that you
have as to where to keep extra cash, jewelry, heirlooms, things most
valuable to you. The very urgency and speed at which thieves will go through
your home is the very reason these items work do such a good job. These items
mentioned as well as many others look exactly (and we do mean exactly) like the real products.
This is because the manufacturers have allowed the safes to be made with the
genuine labeling and packing look and feel. The items are even weighted so in
case the burglar picks it up for some reason it will feel as genuine as it
looks. The hide a key stone looks and feels real. Place it on the ground and it
will go unnoticed, except for the people who know to look for it. To put
simply, these diversion safes are quite effective and, as law enforcement will tell you, have a
very high rate of remaining in your home or yard after the burglar has gone.
