When it comes to high-end horology, security is often synonymous with theft prevention. However, heat and smoke are silent threats that can be just as devastating. A standard safe might keep a thief out, but can it withstand a 1,000°C inferno?
At WatchMatic, we bridge the gap between heavy-duty security and advanced thermal protection. Our fireproof watch safes are engineered not just to store your timepieces, but to ensure they survive the unthinkable.
1. Inherent Fire Resistance: The Solid Steel Body
Every WatchMatic safe begins with a high-grade, multi-walled steel body. Unlike mass-produced residential safes, our construction utilizes heavy-duty steel that acts as a primary heat sink.
While steel provides natural structural integrity during a fire, the internal temperature of a safe can still rise rapidly. This is why WatchMatic’s engineering focuses on the "Inherent Thermal Barrier" - a design that minimizes heat transfer from the outer skin to the delicate mechanical movements and leather straps inside.
2. Custom Fireproofing: Tailored to Your Environment
We understand that some collectors require higher levels of protection based on their location or building structure. WatchMatic offers the unique ability to customize watch safe with advanced fire-retardant materials.
- Custom Insulation: We can integrate specialized fire-stop composite fillings between the steel walls.
- Intumescent Seals: These seals expand up to 10 times their size when exposed to heat, hermetically sealing the door to prevent smoke and hot gases from entering the chamber.
- Extended Duration: By customizing the thermal lining, we can significantly increase the time your watches remain at a safe internal temperature during a blaze.
3. Euro Certification: Meeting Global Insurance Standards
For commercial use or high-value private collections, "fireproof" isn't just a claim—n it’s a legal requirement for insurance compliance. WatchMatic can provide safes with official Euro Certifications:
| Certification | Fire Resistance Duration | Best For |
| LFS 30 P | 30 Minutes (EN 15659) | Standard residential protection and insurance compliance. |
| LFS 60 P | 60 Minutes (EN 15659) | High-risk areas or commercial insurance requirements. |
These certifications ensure that the safe has undergone rigorous testing in furnace conditions, maintaining an internal temperature that protects paper and delicate components (like watch gaskets and oils) for the specified duration.
