TRAIN TO BE A KEY
SAFE INSTALLER
The specialist in mechanical key safes, The Key Safe
Company, is offering its commercial customers
the chance to become an accredited key safe
installer through its new training scheme.
The half-day workshops are dedi-
cated to highlighting how to correctly and
securely fit a key safe to ensure it can’t
be compromised. Each session is offered
on site and will offer customers hands-on
training to become fully confident in fitting
the product, to ensure maximum safety for
tenants.
The unique service cements The Key
Safe Company’s commitment to providing a
strong customer service offering to its cus-
tomers, as well as ensuring that it is main-
taining lasting relationships and providing
long-term support.
David Smith, business development
manager for The Key Safe Company,
commented: “Our customers are at
the heart of everything we do at
The Key Safe Company and we’re
dedicated to going the extra mile
to ensure using our services
is as easy as possible. We are
delighted that we have been
able to extend our custom-
er service offering, which
makes installing a key
safe even easier.
“These sessions have
been designed to be
a collaborative effort
with the installers. Many
customers who are used to
fitting the products like to
come along to make sure they
are doing it correctly, while some
companies use the service for training their
new starters. The sessions have been well
received by local police forces, as the more
key safes installed correctly the less chance
they can be compromised.”
experience
‘ of practical
fitting the key safe ’
Throughout the training course customers
will learn about the Supra C500 KeySafe TM ’s
unique features, the dos and don’ts for
installing them correctly and get hands-on
practical experience of fitting the key safe.
Upon completing the training session those
attending will receive a certificate to mark
that they are accredited key safe installers.
The Supra C500 is the UK’s first mechani-
cal key safe to be police accredited through
the Secured by Design initiative due to
achieving the LPS1175: Issue 6, security rat-
ing 1. The product has an accredited certi-
fication from The Loss Prevention Certifica-
tion Board (LPCB), the leading international
Certification Body in the fields of security
and fire protection. Recognised by leading
home insurance companies, the product has
undergone rigorous tests devised by secu-
rity experts to demonstrate a comparable
attack resistance to a domestic front door.

TRAINING PROTECTS TENANTS
A housing association in Wakefield has
responded to its tenants’ increasing need
for instant access, by undertaking The
Key Safe Company’s accredited key safe
installer scheme.
The installer programme has helped the
WDH team install their P500 and C500
KeySafesTM to allow caregivers unre-
stricted access at any time of the day to
their tenants.
Alana Stanley, senior pest control officer
for WDH, arranged the training for herself
and eight team members from the Repairs
and Maintenance service. She comment-
ed: “We’ve always had two dedicated
members of the team who have carried
out all our key safe installations, but as
we’re seeing more of a need for care at
home we wanted other members of the
team to understand how to install them
correctly too.
“Most requests for a key safe are when
a tenant has been discharged from hos-
pital and one has been recommended.
By having a bank of trained employees it
means we can act quickly and efficiently
when needed.”
The half-day training sessions highlight
how to correctly and securely fit a key
safe to ensure it can’t be compromised.
Each session is offered on site and the
hands-on training ensures the trainees
become fully confident in installation in
order to ensure maximum satisfaction for
the end-users.
Alana continued: “The training was re-
ally worthwhile even for more experienced
team members to be able to refresh their
skills and get answers to queries about
the product.”
