Avenue Series

The Avenue Series safe is a commercial quality burglary protection safe that we designed specifically for installation in high rise apartment buildings. This all-steel constructed series of safes has a heavy duty design that is similar in construction to safes we supply to the jewelry, watch and precious metals industries.  The door of this safe is constructed with 1" thick steel while the body has 1/2" thick steel.  This thickness of steel, along with a heavy duty reinforced steel frame, makes this series a formidable safe for the protection of jewelry and other valuables.  Its streamline design allows you to fit this safe into tight spaces where bulkier models will not work.  Offered in 10 different sizes.

Because of its relatively lightweight characteristics it is strongly recommended that your safe be secured to the floor or other surface it's placed upon. We do offer a selection of steel bases on which the safes can be placed and secured.

Door Swing / Universal Hinges.  The safe has a universal hinge design that enables you to determine whether you want the door swinging to the left or right side.  Please advise at the time of order.   It's best to find a location where the door of the safe can open at least 135 to 180 degrees.  This comes into play especially when safes are fitted internally with jewelry and watch drawers.  We are prepared to help you determine the best and most accessible location for your safe. 

Locking.  The most popular lock selected by our clients is a UL listed commercial quality digital lock (battery powered).  This lock enables the user to set their own personal 6-digit push button code while allowing them to open the safe within 3-5 seconds.  Closing the door and turning the handle automatically locks the safe.  This lock helps make your safe become an integral part of your daily routine, so valuables can be protected at all times. 

Optional Locks  We offer the following alternative locking arrangements.

  • UL listed digital lock with a redundant mechanical combination, which offers two different methods to open the lock, one electronically and the other mechanically. 
  • UL listed biometric (fingerprint) lock which also has an option to open the lock with a 6-digit push button code. 
  • For applications where electronic/digital locks are inappropriate, your safe can be outfitted with a UL listed mechanical combination lock.  
Feel free to discuss the features of each lock with our security consultants so you can select the lock that's best suited for your needs.

Custom Depth Option.  We can reduce the depth of any model to fit within your dimensional limitations....within reason, so please inquire within before designing and constructing a place for it.

Custom Models Available.  If you require a safe of different dimensions we can manufacture one to meet your needs.  Please inquire within for more details.

1The maximum number of drawers you can have in your safe was calculated based on the height of our shortest drawer, while allowing an open cubby space at the top of the safe, approximately 4" in height.  We have found that the top drawer should be located approximately 4" down from the inside top of the safe so that one can see all items stored within the drawer when it is pulled out.  If this is not of concern to you, we can add a maximum of 3 drawers to the interior of your safe.  Please note that the total number of drawers in your safe will probably be less, since you will most likely select at least one higher drawer to store larger pieces of jewelry and/or watches. 

2Model AV 1212 will not accept our standard drawers and inserts.  Custom sized drawers and inserts can be fabricated to fit into these models. 

 
2Model AV1512 will not accept our standard drawers, yet Style 1412T inserts can be placed on shelves or within a custom housing.  Custom sized drawers and inserts can be fabricated to fit into these models. 

 
2Models AV1814 & AV2416 will not accept our standard drawers for Style 1612T inserts, yet these inserts can be placed on shelves or within a custom housing.  Custom sized drawers and inserts can be fabricated to fit into these models. 

3Drawers for Style 1412T & 1612T inserts can be oriented horizontally which will offer 4" of additional space behind the drawers where a secret storage area can be fabricated to house other items, such as cash, etc.  (Model AV2416 offers only 2" additional depth.)  If a secret compartment is not desired, the drawers can be recessed deeper into the safe, which will permit us to mount a storage area on the rear of the door of the safe, for items such as gold and other chains, etc. 

3Drawers for Style 1412T & 1612T inserts can be re-oriented (turned 90 degrees) to fit deep into the safe, which will provide the opportunity to create a (wider) column compartment to house and organize other items such as larger and bulkier items, documents, etc.  See photos and drawings of these custom layouts in the Custom Interiors section.   

4Style 1412T & 1612T are standard inserts that we stock.  Style 1616T is a custom insert.  See drawings of popular layouts for you to consider.  Note that we can customize the layouts of any style insert to meet your particular requirements.

1These dimensions represent the clear entry into the safe past the boltwork chamber.  In this particular series, you will find that the overall inside height and width are greater than these dimensions.

2The clear access width into the safe when the door is open 90 degrees indicates the widest item that can typically fit past the door, into the safe, but this will vary based on the length of the piece as well as if you have additional clearance on the open side to insert the item on an angle.  Important Note:  In this particular series, when the door of the safe is open 90 degrees, the handle projects 3/8" past the side edge of the safe, so if it's imperative that you be able to open the door 90 degrees, please make sure to allow for the additional 3/8" when designing/constructing the space where it will be placed.

3This dimension represents the minimum overall width required for the safe plus the projection of the door when opened far enough to provide straight-in insertion of the widest item that can fit into the safe.  This dimension will allow us to install a full interior within the safe when already in place and will allow you to completely pull out drawers or open a compartment. 

4This dimension represents the minimum overall width required for the safe plus the projection of the door when opened 180 degrees.  We recommend that you allow an additional 2-3" of space which will help prevent the door or one's fingers from hitting an object when opened completely.

5This dimension represents the minimum overall depth required for the safe plus the projection of the door when opened 90 degrees.  We recommend that you allow at least an additional 2-3" of space which will help prevent the door or one's fingers from hitting an object when opened this far.  Since you will be addressing/accessing the safe from the front it's important for you to consider how much additional room you'll need in order to comfortably take items out or put them into the safe. 

Steel Bases  Many clients prefer their safes to be raised off the ground to provide easier access while not wanting to sacrifice security.  To accommodate this request, we designed a selection of enclosed steel bases where the base can be anchored to the floor and the safe anchored to the top of the base, completing the security of the safe, making it difficult for a burglar to remove it from the premises.  Bases can be reduced in height to accommodate dimensional restrictions.

1Model AV1512 can be mounted onto AVbase1212-12 but the safe will overlap the rear of the base by 2".  (For security purposes, we can modify the base by increasing its depth to fit the complete bottom of the safe.  Please discuss this with our security consultants at the time of order.)

Open Steel Bases  We can fabricate an open steel base for applications where securing the safe to the floor is not required.  In this way, the empty space below the safe (within the base) can be utilized for the storage of other items.
