Fireproof Safes and Fire-Resistant Cabinets
Fire-Resistant Storage for Documents and Business Records
Choose from fireproof safes, fire-resistant document safes, fire chests and fire-resistant filing cabinets for passports, certificates, contracts, files and business paperwork. Browse the selected ranges below to compare storage space, locking options and the fire test specified for each model.
Fireproof is a common product description, but no safe provides unlimited protection. A stated fire rating applies to a defined test, contents classification and duration. A paper-rated safe is not automatically suitable for digital media, nor does a fire rating establish burglary resistance.
Which Type of Fire Safe Do You Need?
- Document safes and fire chests: compact storage for paper documents, certificates and records where a suitable paper fire rating is confirmed.
- Fire-resistant filing cabinets: organised storage for business files, folders and paper archives. Check drawer capacity and the published fire test.
- Fire and security safes: select a model with both relevant fire protection and a separately confirmed burglary rating when theft protection also matters.
- Data safes: products designed for heat-sensitive media such as backup drives, subject to the exact media rating.

Choosing a Fireproof Document Safe or Filing Cabinet
Check what you need to protect
Paper certificates and business records have different protection requirements from USB drives, hard disks and other digital media. Check the contents classification on the manufacturer specification. For backups and media storage, see data safes rather than assuming a document safe is sufficient.
Compare the actual fire test
Compare the recognised test standard, duration and contents class, not simply a headline such as “60-minute fireproof”. Test results may differ for paper and data, and a fire rating does not automatically include a burglary or insurance cash rating. See our fire-safe ratings guide for more background.
Measure the usable storage space
Check internal width, height and depth for the documents you intend to store. For a fire-resistant filing cabinet, verify how A4 folders, suspension files and drawers are arranged. External dimensions alone do not show how much usable space is available.
Plan security, installation and delivery
Select a suitable key or electronic lock, check any separate burglary rating and follow manufacturer fixing instructions. For heavier safes or cabinets, check doorways, floor loading, unloading and access restrictions before placing an order. Read our delivery and returns information.
For further comparison, read our fire safe, data safe and filing cabinet guide. The Securikey fire-safe brochure (PDF) provides information for applicable manufacturer models.
Fire Safe and Filing Cabinet FAQs
Is a fireproof safe completely fireproof?
No. A fire-resistant safe provides protection for a defined period and type of contents under the specified test conditions. Check each model's rating rather than assuming indefinite fire protection.
What does a 60-minute fire rating mean?
It describes a fire test duration under a particular standard. Whether the result applies to paper, digital media or other contents depends on the stated test classification. Compare the full certification for each safe.
Can I store a hard disk or USB drive in a document fire safe?
Not unless the safe is specifically rated for the media concerned. Paper-protection ratings do not necessarily keep temperatures and humidity low enough for digital storage. Check specialist data safes.
Does a fire rating mean the safe is insurance or burglary rated?
No. Fire resistance and burglary protection are separate assessments. Confirm any independent security rating and insurer requirements for your chosen safe.
When should I choose a fire-resistant filing cabinet?
Choose a filing cabinet when you need organised storage for larger amounts of paper records. Check the number of drawers, supported filing format, internal dimensions and fire protection for the specific model.
