SAFES & SAFE LOCKS

Hydan in plain sight

Established in 2021 Hydan Safes are now the go to company for Quality Engineered Underfloor Safes . Our name Hydan comes from the old English meaning to hide or conceal .
» DEVELOPING A complete range of underfloor safes for the security market in the middle of a pandemic was never going to be easy , along with rising material costs and long lead times . However , with a combined industry knowledge of over 70 years partners Steve Gibson and Neil Coulson took on the challenge to re-design , engineer and manufacture a complete range which is already proving popular with locksmiths and customers alike .
Steve Gibson has vast experience of manufacturing floorsafes with the old Churchill Safes & Security Products Ltd where he was part of their production team , eventually becoming shop Foreman before moving on to Gunnebo UK in 2008 where he became their Area Trade sales Manager for the North of England , Scotland and Ireland .
Neil Coulson is a wellrespected safe engineer who started out with Lewis Security in Jarrow before starting his
own company Crest Safe and Vault and now also produces some of the country ’ s top luxury safes at our base in Sunderland under the Coulson brand .
The premise of the new underfloor safe range was that it had to be engineered and manufactured to a high-quality standard . The combined partnership has proven to be a success in quality , design and appearance in the eye-catching orange and black colours which make it an attractive
display safe . We know underfloor safes are buried in the ground but before that they must look good in the showrooms of locksmiths to attract the attention of potential customers .
Hydan Safes do not sell directly to the end user preferring to use the vast expertise and knowledge of recognised locksmiths to match and promote the correct product to the customer . Details of our stockists are advertised on
‘ Hydan Safes do not sell directly to the end user preferring to use the vast expertise and knowledge of recognised locksmiths ’
our own hydansafes . com website , which also promotes our product range with detailed images and technical specifications .

Hydan Safes would also like to mention that their doors and bodies will interchange with pre 2008 Churchill Safes & Security Product equivalents and welcome enquiries for this service along with locksmiths wishing to become a Hydan safes stockist .
