What Is A Diversion Safe

A diversion safe is commonly known as a hidden safe. It's meant to divert attention from a robber by hiding valuables in everyday items, hoping he won't find them. The Chicago Crime Commission states that a burglar spends an average of 8 minutes in the victims home. Put the odds in your favor, hide your valuables in plain sight in a hidden safe. The Diversion Safes are a unique home-security product that blends in with the other items in your house and reduces your chances that a burglar will find your valuables.

The diversion safe is made by taking everyday household items and turning them into hidden safes. Obviously there is no lock, however, when a thief is looking for valuables, he won't be looking at your soda cans or books.

The most common diversion safes are made from soda can or beer cans, and books. Other popular hidden safes are the candle, rock, electrical outlet, and a real book. Other options are open to pretty much any can, be it a spray starch, shaving cream, bathroom cleaner, engine degreaser, Ajax, Pringles, dog food, or carpet cleaner.
