Diversion safes: Confuse the thieves!
Jan 4, 2011
Yes, these work like the chameleons! CONFUSED? We are talking about the diversion safes that are typically designed to hide your belongings from plain sight. In fact, No one, except the one who has installed it will ever get to know about the hidden safe’s whereabouts, so leave alone the concept of free access to the safe!
Let’s face this we all have some type of valuables which we want to keep safe and keep secured. Well small things, cash, jewelry, your antique watch or whatever, you always try to think the best place to hide these things. Unfortunately every place which you might think of hiding your valuables is also the place that a thief might look for and even that stand alone safe can be hauled off. This is where the trick of Diversion safes comes into play. Yes, the idea is to hide these things right in plain sight to offer a chameleon effect. As the chameleon changes color to blend into its surroundings similarly you can take refuge to the diversion safes to hide your things in plain sight. That’s right; the burglar breaking into your home will only have 10 minutes in hand to look for the valuables and for the money. He will ransack the drawers, pull out the safes, look behind books, under the mattress or whatever and there your valuables will remain safely in your pantry or under your sink or in your bathroom or in your garage inside the diversion safes. Still confused? Well, the hidden safes are basically the everyday containers of soup or dry soup, soda, fruit can, engine degreaser, foot powder, peanut butter, or just a book – in fact you just name and you have a diversion safe for your valuables! Typically the diversion safes are designed in such a way so that they blend with their surroundings. These are located perhaps at the most common places and are certainly not in actual hiding because the thieves may think otherwise!
That’s right; it can be your floor cabinet or can be the bathroom sink or just your soda cans! In fact these are the regular objects in your home that hardly catches the attention or any one for that matter. In fact their giveaway is perhaps only if the thief after ransacking your whole home desires to stop for taking a drink break and just by chance gets hold of your valuable soda can! That’s pretty farfetched scenario, what say? In fact there are few things which usually another person will never touch while looking for the valuables. Such as a can of hair spray, which the burglar won’t even touch or use it. Well, it’s simple logic, why should someone be using your hair spray when their sole intention lies in finding the valuables. Yes, that sounds wholly ridiculous!
In fact not just to fool the thieves and to keep them busy in looking for the valuables but the diversion safes are also innovative objects for the roomies who stay together and do not want the other person to pry upon his valuables.
Yes, if you have thought that hair spray for dry hair which your room mate has kept on the dresses was only to tame the dry and frizzy locks, think again!
