Car Key Safes for Surfers who need to protect their Valuables

Car key safe for surfers available in New Zealand

Protecting your keys, remotes, cash, cards & other small valuables from thieves while surfing or partaking in any other outdoor pursuit is made easier & more secure by placing them inside a car key safe.  Theft is on the rise & certain areas & situations are hot spots for thieves, providing easy pickings & while no one can guarantee total security from having your vehicle or valuables stolen, you can take some extra steps to make it harder & less desirable for them to attempt to:

- Avoid parking in remote secluded areas if possible.

- Avoid leaving valuables easily visible in your vehicle.

- Avoid hiding keys/remotes on or around your vehicle - especially on top of your tyre. 

- If your vehicle has a removable top, canopy or roof box or pod make sure you secure & lock them.

- Store your car keys, fobs & remotes & other small valuables in a key safe or lock box. 

What is a Car Key Safe?

A Car Key Safe or sometimes also known as a Lock Box is essentially a portable or wall mountable miniature safe. They come in a variety of sizes with varying internal storage capacity & use a variety of opening methods with 4 digit combination, push button, keypad & Bluetooth options available. Whilst many are wall mounted & made to secure to a surface wall, some versions have a detachable shackle or cable enabling you to secure the key safe onto your vehicles tow bar, door handle, wing mirror or lock it onto a metal pole close to where you surf.

Our Key Safe & Lock Box recommendations for surfers: 

Probably our favourite & fast becoming our most popular are the 2 portable key safe options from Master Lock's latest range. Featuring one of the largest internal storage capacity areas for holding keys, remotes, fobs, cards & more on the market & available in 2 options (with a shackle or with a cable), the MA5480 & MA5482 are both great options for surfers. A rubber back on both prevents scratches & marks on your cars paintwork & the weather resistant body & shutter door over the 4 digit combination dial lock offers a simple & effective protection for your keys, remotes & more.

Another great option is the Master Lock MA5414 which is one of the strongest & heaviest key safes on the market & features a heavy duty metal body, shackle & foam covered back to protect your car or other surface against scratches & impact. A great option where something a little more solid is required.

Note - those with newer vehicles using key fob proximity technology will need to invest in a faraday (signal blocking) pouch or wrap to block the signal transmitting from your vehicle's key fob to your vehicle when using a key safe or lock box.
