When most people think of safes, they think of the big vault in the bank. The fact of the matter is that safes come in all shapes and sizes. More people think of the big safes than not. A big clunker with a combination lock is certainly a popular item. And big gun safes are in vogue as well.
But the most popular safes for home security in the marketplace today are hidden safes or diversion safes as they are sometimes called. They are objects that you are used to seeing around the home or office, that people are used to seeing and that they think nothing of seeing and inside them are spaces to store valuables.
There are all kinds of diversion safes. Some examples are safes for keys, guns, dormitory rooms, closets and book safes. They are all very effective at hiding valuables in plain sight if you will.

They will spend no more than 5 to 6 minutes inside a house for a home burglary and if they cannot find what they’re looking for they will leave. The idea behind hidden safes or diversion safes is to hide things in plain sight, right in front of the burglar. Of course he has no idea that the book he’s looking at on a shelf in a room holding other books contains valuables.
