Moving a large or heavy safe can be challenging if you do not have specialist equipment.  If you need to move a large safe from one location to another, or from one floor to another, you would need to have specialist lifting equipment, ramps and dollies and in some instances vehicles to load and move the safe.

Even moving a small safe is not simple, as the safe will need installing correctly again.  A safe moved and not installed properly could possibly invalidate your insurance cover.

The time it takes for a safe locksmith to move a safe depends on the size of the safe, where it is located, and where the safe is being moved to.

When moving a safe, planning on what equipment the safe locksmith uses depends heavily on its size & weight, how it’s accessed and its final destination. For example, will stair climbers, dollies, pallet trucks or a crane need to be used in moving the safe.

Factors when moving a safe will include:

• Current Installaton method: Is the safe bolted down? fixed to a wall? A underfloor safe?
• Accessing & moving the safe: Will your safe need to go down flights of stairs or move across multiple floors? This is a key factor, which often requires specialized equipment with careful planning.
• Destination of the safe: Where is the safe being moved to? will it need to be moved upstairs/floors? Will the safe need to be reinstalled?

There are many variables that influence how long it will take to move a safe, we would recommend contacting a MLA approved safe locksmith for a quote.
