The range also provides 30 minutes of independently certified fire protection for paper documents to EN 15659 LFS 30P, combining serious burglary resistance and document fire protection within a single high-security safe.

Available in five sizes from 56 to 330 litres, with a choice of High-Security Key or Electronic locking.

EN 1143-1 Grade 3 Certified Security

The Phoenix Elara has been independently tested to the prestigious European:

EN 1143-1 Grade III Security Standard

and is certified by ECB-S.

This recognised level of burglary resistance supports Phoenix's recommended:

£35,000 Cash Rating

or

£350,000 Valuables Rating

The Elara is therefore particularly well suited to protecting higher-value contents including:

• Jewellery
• Luxury watches
• Cash
• Precious metals
• Collectables
• Important documents
• Business assets
• Other high-value personal or commercial possessions

AiS Approved & Police Preferred

In addition to its Grade 3 certification, the Phoenix Elara carries important UK security approvals.

The range is AiS approved, providing additional reassurance where recognised security standards and insurance requirements are important considerations.

Phoenix also identifies the Elara as approved under Secured by Design, the official UK Police security initiative.

Combined with its ECB-S Grade 3 certification, these credentials make the Elara particularly attractive for customers protecting substantial values where an insurer may specify an independently certified safe.

30-Minute Certified Fire Protection

High-level burglary protection is complemented by independently tested fire resistance.

The Phoenix Elara is certified to:

EN 15659 LFS 30P

providing 30 minutes of fire protection for paper documents.

This allows important paperwork such as property documents, certificates, contracts and business records to be protected alongside cash and other valuable possessions.

Key or Electronic Locking

The Elara is available with a choice of two high-security locking systems.

High-Security Key Lock

Key Locking models are fitted with a high-security double-bitted VdS Class II key lock.

This provides straightforward mechanical operation without the need to manage electronic codes or batteries.

High-Security Electronic Lock

Electronic models are fitted with a high-security VdS Class II electronic lock, providing advanced access-control functions including:

• Master Code
• Dual Control
• Time Delay

The Electronic option is particularly useful where controlled access is required or where several authorised individuals may need access to the safe.

Substantial Grade 3 Construction

The Elara incorporates substantial multi-layer construction designed to resist determined physical attack.

Security features include:

• Heavy-duty 3-way locking
• 24mm diameter locking bolts
• Double-wall construction
• Specially formulated concrete infill
• Anti-drill plates
• Internal relocker protection

Together with its VdS high-security locking system, this construction provides the physical protection required to achieve its Grade 3 security classification.

Five Sizes from 56 to 330 Litres

The Elara is available in five sizes, providing a useful progression from concentrated high-value residential storage through to substantial commercial applications.

Adjustable Internal Storage

The Elara is supplied with height-adjustable internal shelving, allowing the available space to be configured around different types of contents.

The larger models also provide substantial document storage capacity, making the Elara equally suitable for protecting valuable possessions and confidential business records.

Depending on the model and filing format, the larger safes can accommodate significant quantities of lever arch folders and box files.

Alarm or Power Cable Preparation

The Elara is pre-prepared for an alarm or power cable, allowing easier integration into an appropriate wider security installation.

This can be particularly useful for high-value residential properties and commercial premises where the safe forms part of a more comprehensive alarm and security system.

Secure Structural Fixing

Correct anchoring is an essential part of a high-security safe installation.

The Elara is prepared for secure structural fixing, with appropriate fixing bolts supplied by Phoenix.

Given the substantial weights involved — extending to approximately 920kg on the largest model — professional delivery and installation should be carefully considered.

SafeFort professional delivery and installation options are available to ensure the safe is correctly positioned and securely anchored.

Suitable for Controlled Drug Storage

The Phoenix Elara is also suitable for the secure storage of controlled drugs where the active ingredients exceed 500 grams.

This extends its suitability to appropriate healthcare, pharmaceutical, veterinary and other professional environments requiring a high-security storage solution.

Graphite Grey Finish

The Elara is finished in a high-quality, scratch-resistant Graphite Grey RAL 7024.

Its understated professional appearance makes it suitable for both premium residential installations and commercial environments.

SafeFort Recommendation

The Phoenix Elara HS3550 is an excellent choice for customers requiring a significant level of independently certified security for higher-value possessions.

Its EN 1143-1 Grade 3 certification and recommended £35,000 cash / £350,000 valuables rating make it particularly well suited to substantial jewellery and watch collections, cash, precious metals, collectables and other high-value assets.

The addition of EN 15659 LFS 30P certified fire protection is an important advantage, providing 30 minutes of protection for important paper documents stored alongside valuables.

For residential customers, the HS3551 and HS3552 provide Grade 3 protection within relatively compact dimensions, while the HS3553, HS3554 and HS3555 provide progressively greater capacity for larger collections and commercial applications.

Compared with the Phoenix Mercury HS2050, the Elara retains the same broad choice of sizes and 30-minute certified fire protection but increases the security classification from Grade 2 to Grade 3, raising Phoenix's recommended cover from £17,500 cash / £175,000 valuables to £35,000 cash / £350,000 valuables.

For customers seeking Grade 3 security, recognised insurance-focused approvals and certified fire protection, the Phoenix Elara HS3550 is one of SafeFort's recommended high-security safe ranges.
