Best Mid-Range Safes £200 to £500 UK in 2026

A good safe needs to fit the room, the valuables and the way you will actually use it. We compare useful sizes, lock types, fixing options and the security details that are easy to miss in a product listing.

Before you choose: external and internal dimensions · lock type and backup access · fire or insurance rating · fixing requirements · door clearance and delivery.
This page contains retailer links. Where Awin tracking is configured, SafeBlog may earn a commission if you buy; that does not change the price you pay.
