Chubbsafe, a division of Gunnebo Safe Storage, in collaboration with VOUROS O.E., recently completed the customized specification of safe storage solutions for a private compound comprising 13 luxury villas located in the Cycladic Islands, Greece.
These villas needed secure storage solutions for jewelry, watches, and important documents, both in private suites and administrative areas. Traditional high-grade safes were deemed too heavy and visually intrusive for such an upscale setting.
Certified Burglary Resistance
The project required compact safes with certified burglary resistance, offering flexible anchoring options. Their lighter construction allowed these safes to be installed inside wardrobes and other discreet locations, without necessitating changes to the structure or interior design of the properties.
Georgios Vouros, Managing Director of VOUROS O.E., stated, “The collaboration highlights a shift in the Greek luxury property market, where homeowners expect certified protection that blends seamlessly into refined interiors. Chubbsafes’ compact and discreet solutions meet this need by delivering proven burglary resistance without altering the design or structural features of the villas.”
DIY Friendly Installation
This innovative solution provided an installation process that minimized disruption to residents
This innovative solution provided an installation process that minimized disruption to residents, a method supported by the strong partnership between Chubbsafe and VOUROS that began in 1956, with VOUROS becoming the sole distributor in 1997.
These safes, designed for residential use, demonstrate the successful adaptation of technology originally developed for banks and jewelers, offering certified protection to EN 1143-1 and EN 1300 standards for mechanical or electronic locks.
Jolanta Derbich, Channel Development Manager Southern and Eastern Europe of Gunnebo Safe Storage, emphasized, “Luxury homeowners want the same level of certified protection that professional institutions have relied on for years, but in a format suited to connected lifestyles. Our partnership with VOUROS combines global engineering expertise with local knowledge to deliver solutions that protect valuable possessions while fitting into residential environments.”
