Why Locksmiths are recommending the ark Tamo Key Safe

AA trusted locksmith in Leeds believes he has found a criminal-proof answer to a spate of key safe thefts. Yorkshire Police recently issued a warning to residents after a series of key safes were stolen from dwellings in Knaresborough.
The crimewave followed on from worrying data that revealed how Leeds, less than 20 miles from Knaresborough, had the second highest rate of burglary crime of any postcode area in England and Wales - and almost double the national average.
After police warned residents about key safe thefts in North Yorkshire, a trusted Leeds locksmith has endorsed the ark Tamo key safe as one of the most secure options available. With its Police Preferred specification, advanced anti-pick mechanism and independently tested security rating, the ark Tamo is designed to protect keys even against determined attacks.
