Rank #9 in Best Safe 2026: The Box Weighs 1.87kg
Cathedral Products 12 Inch Lockable Security Box with Bolt Down Kit
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Cathedral 12-inch security box costs £16.25 with 4.5 stars from 2,805 ratings, and it is a steel box with a key lock and a bolt-down kit included.
It takes ninth because its listing contains this category's contradiction in one place: a bolt-down kit in the box and Portable in the special-features field. At £16.25 it is the cheapest way here to get a box you can fix to a floor.
How those 2,805 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.5 stars.

Questions people ask
Is it portable or bolted down?
Both, according to its own listing: the special features field says portable and the box contains a bolt-down kit.
How much does it weigh?
Not published, which is the omission this category shares.
What fits inside?
Documents and a lot of items, per reviewers, in a 12-inch box.
Can it be used outdoors?
One reviewer uses it to protect knives on camp, so it travels well when not fixed down.
Why is it ninth?
Because it is a plain steel box with a contradictory listing, though the bolt-down kit at £16.25 is the best value here.
How many ratings does it have?
2805 at the time of collection, averaging 4.5 stars, with 72 per cent five-star and 2 per cent one-star.
