As Canada marks its 158th birthday on July 1st, red and white will fly proudly across all of Edmonton. While many are prepping for the sparklilng fireworks, mouth-watering cookouts, and memorable time with those closest, Dial Locksmith & SafeWorld is here with a friendly reminder for all Canadians: celebrations are always better when your valuables – and peace of mind – are protected and taken care of.

Security Matters | Even on Canada Day

Holidays like Canada Day often mean quality time spent away, whether it’s a quick getaway or an extended break with loved ones. While these moments are meant for celebration, being away from home can unfortunately increase the risk of theft and break-ins. As you enjoy this year’s festivities, it’s important to make sure your home and valuables are safe and secure. At Dial Locksmith & SafeWorld, we’ve been helping Albertans protect what matters most for nearly six decades.

Safe and Sound | How to Keep Your Valuables Secure This Canada Day

Whether you’re heading out of town or just away for the day, these quick tips can help protect your property and give you peace of mind as you enjoy the festivities.

1. Store Important Items in a Safe

From passports and legal documents to priceless jewelry, heirlooms and important hard drives, securing you most valuable possessions in a high-quality fire and burglary-rated safe is one of the smartest steps you can take. Luckily, we offer a full range of sophisticated, top-of-the-line safes – from compact home models to large commercial-grade safes. Not sure what you need? No problem, we’ve got your back!

2. Lock Up Before You Head Out

Always make sure to double-check that all doors and windows are securely locked – even the ones you rarely use (we always forget those ones). If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your locks or adding high-security options, now is the perfect time to talk to our team.

3. Leave Your Home Looking ‘Lived-In’

Heading out of town? No problem, by adding these few simple steps you can deter any further potential unwanted attention:

• Set timers on your outside lights
• Have a neighbour collect your mail
• Avoid posting travel plans online
• Update your home’s security system or products

What might seem like small tasks – or those ‘I’ll do it next time’ thoughts – can actually make a big difference in keeping your property off a burglar’s radar.

Safes are a great way to protect your property and valuables. That said, depending on your security needs, you could be looking at a hefty price tag. If you want to safeguard your items without breaking the bank, a used safe might be the solution. That said, not all used safes are created equal. In this blog, we’ll discuss the pros and cons of purchasing a used safe.

The Pros & Cons of Used Safes

When purchasing a used safe for home or office security, it’s crucial to consult with a professional, certified dealer. Buying from a private seller can expose you to significant risks.

Pros of Used Safes

Used safes are a great way to save money on your home or office security needs. When purchased from a certified dealer, they offer the same level of protection as a new safe, but without the premium cost. 

When purchased from a certified seller, used safes come with complete safe services, including: 

• Installation 
• Delivery and moving
• Repairs and maintenance
• Safe opening
• Combination changes
• Lock changes 
• And more

At Dial Locksmith & SafeWorld®, our team is available to help you find the right safe to meet your needs. 

Cons of Used Safes

If you’re thinking of purchasing a used safe from a private dealer, it’s important to know the risks. Without certification and thorough inspections, previous break-in attempts could decrease the functionality of a used safe. Private sellers rarely offer guarantees and are not authorized to change the safe’s combination. This could render your property at risk should a previous owner have a master key or code. You could end up spending extra money on maintenance, repairs, or other inconveniences. 

When purchasing a used safe, it’s essential to work with a certified dealer, such as Dial Locksmith & SafeWorld®, to ensure your belongings are secure. 

Dial Locksmith & SafeWorld®: Your Source For Certified and Reliable Used Safes

When you purchase a safe from SafeWorld®, you can feel confident in your security. Each of our used safes is thoroughly inspected, certified up to code, and installed properly. There’s no risk that your safe has been tampered with or that a master key or code is floating around. You’ll be the only one with access to your precious items. 

At Dial Locksmith & SafeWorld®, we’re committed to keeping your property safe. For more information on used safes in Edmonton, contact Dial Locksmith & SafeWorld® to speak with a qualified safety professional. 

If you’re looking to improve convenience and accessibility in your commercial building, it’s time to consider an automatic door operator. This simple solution comes with several benefits to both you and your clients. 

Provide your staff and clients with peace of mind, knowing they can access your property regardless of mobility or other challenges. Increase your security and take comfort in knowing your property is protected and compliant with regulations.

Is it time for you to consider installing an automatic door operator? Read on to find out: 

Improved Accessibility 

Enhance access for both your clients and staff with an automatic door operator. This simple addition provides barrier-free entrance for all, creating a safe and comfortable space for those with mobility challenges. Promote inclusivity while ensuring you’re compliant with accessibility regulations.

Convenience

Ensure effortless entry for everyone visiting your property. Automatic door operators make access hassle-free for delivery personnel, clients, and staff — whether they’re carrying packages, pushing a stroller, or have limited strength. Your consideration will pay off in the end. 

Hands-Free Operation

For seamless, hands-free operation, your automatic door operator can be equipped with motion sensors or push-button controls to suit your business’s needs. This addition is especially beneficial for facilities that prioritize hygiene, such as healthcare centres, restaurants, and public washrooms.  

Energy Efficiency 

Save energy and reduce costs with automatic door operators. Equipped with sensors, these systems only open when needed, preventing unnecessary air loss and maintaining climate control. No more worrying about doors being left open — keep your indoor environment comfortable and efficient. 

Safety and Security 

Ideal for high-traffic areas, automatic door operators can minimize accidents and frustration with hands-free options. The motion sensors can detect obstructions and stop door progression when an obstacle is in the way. 

For added security, equip your system with access control settings, restricting entry to authorized personnel. 

Customizable 

Tailor your automatic door operator to meet your specific requirements. Make adjustments to meet your speed and sensitivity needs, while enhanced security options allow you to protect your property and its occupants.

Aesthetics

With a sleek design, automatic door operators are aesthetically pleasing, blending seamlessly with your commercial property’s architecture.

Protecting valuables and important documents is a priority for any Edmonton homeowner. A residential safe offers peace of mind, but with so many options out there, choosing the right one can feel overwhelming. At Dial Locksmith and Safeworld™, we carry a variety of residential safes in Edmonton, helping Albertans secure everything from cash, gold, and important documents to firearms and ammunition safely in their homes.

In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the most important considerations to make when choosing the ideal safe to protect your valuables at home. 

Think About What You Need to Protect

Consider the items you plan to store inside your residential safe. For most Albertans, having a safe place to stow away jewelry, family heirlooms, and important documents like passports and birth certificates is a top priority; however, if you hunt or own firearms for any other purpose, it’s necessary to have a secure place to store these items to comply with Alberta’s firearms safety laws.

The size and type of safe you choose will depend on how much you have to store, as well as the items you need to keep secure. Think about the potential for future additions to your safe as well—if you purchase something small, you might find yourself needing to upgrade down the road.

Determine Your Budget and the Level of Security You Want

Decide how much you’re willing to spend on a residential safe and the level of security you need to keep your valuables safe. Safes range from basic fire-resistant models to high-security vaults designed to withstand sophisticated burglary attempts. Consider factors such as fire ratings and locking mechanisms. 

When evaluating security, look for ratings from Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL). For example, a TL rating indicates the safe’s resistance to break-in attempts with tools, while a Residential Security Container (RSC) rating is a simple safe that’s designed to protect against basic break-in attempts. 

Placement Matters

Where you place the safe within your home matters. Discretion is important; however, so is accessibility. Our residential safes are heavy and it’s important to have our team evaluate the space you’d like your safe in to determine the logistics of your delivery.
