Frequently Asked Questions – AMSEC AMVAULT CF4524 TL-30 Safe

What does a TL-30 rating mean?

A TL-30 rating means the safe has passed a rigorous UL (Underwriters Laboratories) burglary test, withstanding 30 minutes of continuous attack using high-power tools such as drills, electric saws, carbide cutters, grinders, and pressure tools. This is one of the highest commercial ratings available.

Is the CF4524 suitable for business use?

Yes. The CF4524 meets Mercantile & Broadform Insurance Class TL-30 requirements and carries a Bank Rating of G (TL-30). It’s commonly used by jewelers, pharmacies, dispensaries, pawn shops, and retail stores, as well as any business handling high-value inventory or cash.

How fire-resistant is the CF4524?

The safe is factory tested for 2 hours at 1850°F, keeping the interior below 350°F, which protects paper records and most heat-sensitive valuables during a severe fire.

What can I store in this safe?

The CF4524 is ideal for storing:

• Cash drawers and till drops
• Jewelry and precious metals
• Documents and legal records
• Pharmaceuticals or controlled substances
• Hard drives and small electronics
• Collectibles and high-value personal items

Can I upgrade the lock to an electronic keypad?

Yes. The CF4524 comes standard with a UL Group II mechanical combination lock, but you can upgrade to an electronic keypad or a UL Listed Group 1R Lock. Electronic locks offer faster access and easier code changes.

How heavy is the CF4524, and can it be bolted down?

The safe weighs 2,311 pounds and comes with four recessed anchor holes plus an anchor bolt kit. Anchoring it to the floor is recommended for maximum theft resistance.

What makes this safe different from a regular home or office safe?

Most home safes rely on basic steel panels or light fire insulation. The CF4524 uses a multi-layer composite barrier with steel fibers, nuggets, and proprietary materials that resist advanced tools and severe attacks. It’s designed for professional-grade security, not just casual theft.

Is the door difficult to open because it’s so heavy?

Despite the door’s high mass, it opens smoothly thanks to oil-impregnated bearings and a fully adjustable hinge system designed for long-term use.

Can this safe be customized?

Yes. Available upgrades include interior configurations, extra shelves, electronic locks, glass relockers, and more. For custom options, contact our Safe Experts at 800-207-2259.

Does this safe qualify me for lower business insurance?

Many insurers require a TL-30-rated safe for storing cash, jewelry, or high-value goods. In many cases, the CF4524 meets or exceeds insurance requirements and may help you qualify for lower premiums. Always check with your insurance provider for their specific guidelines.

How does this compare to a TL-15 safe?

The TL-30 offers more than double the burglary protection of a TL-15 safe. TL-15 safes must resist 15 minutes of tool attack, while TL-30 safes must resist 30 minutes using more advanced and powerful tools. If the budget allows, stepping up to TL-30 significantly increases your security.
