Key Drivers:
-
Increase in crime rate and concern about the safety
The growing crime rate and concern about the safety of valuable assets are projected to drive the growth of the safes and vaults market. Increasing cases of theft and burglaries are concerning the general population for the safety of their assets. For instance, according to a data published by US Department of Justice, there are 2.5 million burglaries annually in the United States. 66% of these are home invasions. Additionally, in 2019, according to the crime report 2019 by the Indian government, offences against properties which included theft and burglaries rose by 6.5% to 8,54,618 cases between 2018 and 2019.

The growth in thefts of personal assets has enforced people to invest in safes and vaults to protect their assets from any such misevent. Thus, an upsurge in crime rate and concern about the safety of valuable assets are driving the growth of the global safes and vaults market.
Key Restraint:
-
Availability of advanced key duplication technologies
The maximum number of violations in security procedures occur due to unauthorized key duplication. Burglars and thieves that seek to copy a key face few to no challenges. There are advanced technologies available to duplicate most standard keys, such as laser cutting, which maps the exact size and shape of the original key.
The ‘do-not-duplicate’ label on keys is only honored by professional locksmiths familiar with the manufacturer. The increasing number of local locksmiths in hardware stores and malls has made the duplication of keys easier by unauthorized users, assuming the specific keyblank is available with the locksmith. Locksmiths are also available online; they process the uploaded image of the original key to prepare a duplicate, which is mailed to the customer. The easy duplication of keys using advanced technologies is anticipated to hamper the growth of the global safes & vaults market during the assessment period.
Key Opportunities:
-
Growing application of smart safes and vaults
Over the last decade, there have been rapid technological developments in safes & vaults, resulting in a shift from mechanical to electronic and smart safes & vaults. Fingerprint-based technologically advanced safes are a key trend in the safes and vault market. Fingerprint-based safes consist of a biometric fingerprint scanner, which scans and stores a detailed image of the fingerprint in encrypted digital format. Once the fingerprints are stored, the biometric scanner recognizes each user’s fingerprint for providing safe and secure access to assets within the system.
With growing crime and the rising instances of burglaries and unauthorized access, biometrics have been introduced in locks as a superior authentication tool that scans unique human anatomical features such as retinas, fingerprints, and even the veins in a person’s hand. This advancement helps in quicker access while maintaining a controlled environment. Also, locks controlled via mobile apps and Bluetooth and fingerprint sensors on padlocks are getting introduced in the market. Thus, various technological developments offer the manufacturers of smart safes & vaults lucrative growth opportunities.
Key Challenges:
-
Presence of private-label brands
Retailers across regions, private-label brands, and international brands offer low-cost substitutes to consumers and increase revenue generation. According to MRFR analysis, retail sales for safes & vaults have increased gradually over the last two years due to increased sales of private-label brands. In addition, these private-label manufacturers sell their products in the unorganized market, thereby limiting the growth of the players in the global safes & vaults market. Furthermore, product pricing by local companies is relatively low compared to those offered by the prominent market players that have achieved economies of scale by investing heavily in raw materials and technology.
The sales of private-label products are largely unaccounted for, which creates a gap between the production volume and the revenue generated in the safes & vaults market. Hence, the increase in the number of private-label manufacturers offering products at low costs is likely to hinder the growth of the established players in the global safes & vaults market during the forecast period
