Do I need a Safe Deposit Box?
A Safe Deposit Box, Safety Deposit Box, Bank Vault or Bank secure storage – no matter what you call it – everyone should have one. You’re probably asking yourself “Do I need a Safe Deposit Box”.
The short answer is “Yes”. Our Grand Parents way of hiding valuables under a mattress won’t cut it anymore. Criminals have become sophisticated, desperate and worst of all – extremely violent. That is why you need to de-risk your home and ensure criminals have no reason to target you or your loved ones.
But I don’t have Gold – Do I really need a Safe Deposit Box?
Most people believe that they only need a safe deposit box if they have cash, diamonds, gold, crypto wallets or if they are trying to hide from the tax man.
While having gold and diamonds means you should obviously have a secure storage option, there are other reasons as well.
Think about your Last Will and Testament. Would your family be able to access this quickly and securely should anything happen to you?
Or how about standard documents like your Identification (ID), Passport, children’s birth certificates, property title deeds and vehicle ownership documents. Will you have quick, safe and secure access to these documents if there is a fire, flood or riot at your property?
Let’s also consider other important valuables like your child’s first hair and tooth. Like family heirlooms that simply cannot be replaced. Or even importantly – your parent or siblings last written words to you.
The point is that not all valuables have a monetary value attached to them. We all have important things in our lives that cannot be replaced. And we all need a secure way of storing them without making our homes targets to criminals.
So now that you have the answer to “Do I need a Safe Deposit Box” – let’s look at Capital Vaults as an option.
The Safer Safe Deposit Box
Capital Vaults is a safe deposit box facility that’s a first of its kind. It boasts robotically controlled, fully automated secure boxes. To allow 24/7 biometrically secure access in a discreet location at one of the safest places in South Africa.
You can rest easy knowing that layers and layers of security will keep your valuables safe and secure.
What about options from our competitors?
You might be thinking – why use Capital Vaults instead of one of our competitors?
Well the truth is that most of the major vault companies with safe deposit boxes are good options. Most have vaults that are internationally graded to high levels. And should have biometrics, 24/7 monitored CCTV coverage with armed response. So what makes Capital Vaults the Safer Safe Deposit Box?
The answer is really simple. We have Zero Human Interaction between you and your box.
You see, all crimes of theft are perpetrated by human beings. That seems obvious to everyone. But it is a fundamental point that must not be overlooked when choosing a place to store your valuables.
Think about these scenarios that occur when using our competitors:
- When you make an appointment to visit your box – you’ve given potential criminals an alert that you’re coming.
- If you present your ID to someone when you enter your vault – you’ve told someone who you are. And you’ve told them that you have a box with valuables. Chances are good that they have your address on file as well.
- If you are escorted to retrieve your box – that means that someone else has access to your box. And similarly they have access to it when you’re not there.
- If you deposit or withdraw from your Safe Deposit Box under the above conditions – your valuables are at risk.
Don’t believe us? Do a quick google search to see the amount of insider theft that happens at safety box facilities.
That’s the main reason the banks in South Africa no longer offer a bank vault boxes.
We’re not knocking our competitors. Most of them offer beautiful facilities. But we are the only safe deposit box provider that can offer Zero Human Interaction. With 24/7 access in a secure and discreet location. This makes us Safer.

How do I Choose the Right Safe Deposit Box?
Not all safety deposit boxes are good. When choosing a safe deposit box facility to store your valuables, the main factors to consider are Security, Accessibility and Pricing.
A good safe deposit box service will ensure that your valuables are guarded and protected at a high level. As a minimum the facility should use an Internationally Graded Vault (of a high level and from a reputable supplier), employ CCTV Cameras which are Monitored, have Patrolling Guards, use Biometrics and Chip and Pin Authentication.
The safety box service should also be securely, discreetly and conveniently located to allow you to enter and exit without being noticed. Since people are susceptible to greed, you should not be exposed to anyone when accessing your box. Every human being that you are exposed to, undermines your security and safety.
A quick web search will confirm that most safe deposit vault thefts occur because of vault employees.
A good safe deposit box facility should be accessible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This way you can access your valuables when it is convenient for you without compromising security.
Finally, a safe deposit box facility has to offer value for money. If you choose an offering that is too cheap, the chances are high that you are compromising either security or accessibility.
If you choose a facility that is too expensive, then storing your valuables offsite won't be worthwhile.

How does it work?
After authenticating your credentials, you instruct the terminal to call up your box (like an ATM).
The Terminal instructs the Robotics to call up your box from inside the secure vault.
Your box is brought to the terminal through the vault and secure shafts.
You transact and deposit your box back the way it came once you're done.
Enter and Transact
To access your valuables, you simply enter one of our Privacy Suites at any time of the day.
Use your allocated chip card, enter your chosen pin number and scan your registered fingerprint.
The terminal will then call up your safe deposit box from the vault and you can transact with peace of mind.
Our Privacy Suites look like luxurious lounges because we want you to feel comfortable and at peace while accessing your valuables. Each Suite has a money counting machine, a counterfeit note detection light and a scale - just to make your visit more convenient.
Deposit and Exit
When you're done, simply press deposit at the terminal, and your safety deposit box will be returned to the vault securely. You can now exit. Simple as that.
Our Privacy Suites not only look great, but they are very safe. There is a phone linked directly to 24 hour security and a CCTV monitor with cameras covering the OUTSIDE of the Suite. That way you can gauge if there are any threats (as unlikely as it may be), before leaving the Privacy Suite.
How Big are the Boxes and How much do they Cost?
We have four different sizes of boxes and the cost depends on the term you reserve your safety box for.
Select the term (monthly, 1 Year, 2 Years or 3 Years) to see the different sizes and costs. You can even add the box you like to a cart to checkout where you can either pay online or choose to come through and pay onsite once you see the site as well.
