Most of us keep our most precious things — jewellery, watches, cash, important documents — at home. It's also the first place burglars look. In Geneva, as in any major city, burglaries and home break-ins remain a reality. A private safe deposit box moves your valuables out of your home — and out of thieves' reach.
Why your home isn't the best place
- A home safe can be found. Burglars know where to look (bedroom, study, dressing room), and a small safe can be forced open or simply carried away.
- The risk isn't only theft. During a break-in while you're home — a "home-jacking" — having valuables in the house can make the situation worse.
- Insurance doesn't replace the item. Family jewellery, keepsakes and one-of-a-kind pieces are irreplaceable, whatever the payout.
What a private safe deposit box changes
- Your valuables leave your home. There's nothing left to steal — and nothing to invite a break-in.
- A secure environment. Continuously monitored vault, dual locking system, strictly controlled access.
- Peace of mind. You know the essentials are safe, whether you're at home, travelling or away.
What can you keep in it?
Jewellery, watches, precious metals, cash, important documents (deeds, wills, contracts), family heirlooms, digital media — anything that fits within the dimensions of your box and that you'd rather not leave at home.
Discreet and independent
Our boxes are located in the heart of Geneva, accessible by appointment and in complete discretion. Our service is entirely independent of the banking system: your box remains confidential and accessible in all circumstances.
