The Gubabi Fireproof Safe 108 (available in SD-108 manual and ESD-108 digital variants) represents the heavy-duty tier of the Gubabi security lineup. It is specifically engineered for high-volume storage in corporate headquarters, legal firms, and large retail outlets where the value of documents and cash necessitates a 240kg+ physical barrier.
At Kara.com.ng, the 108 series is recognized as a "Vault-Class" safe, offering significantly more vertical storage than the 106 or 107 models.

Advanced Security & Fire Protection Features
- Extended Fire Endurance: The Gubabi 108 is built to provide 120 minutes of fire protection. This is critical for large buildings where a fire may take longer to extinguish. The internal temperature remains below 177°C (the charring point of paper) even in an intense inferno.
- Reinforced Anti-Drill Plates: The area behind the locking mechanism is reinforced with a hardened manganese alloy plate. This prevents "drill-and-scope" attacks where burglars try to bypass the tumblers.
- Large Internal Volume: With an external height of over 1 meter (1050mm), the 108 can hold several large "Box Files" vertically. This makes it the ideal Gubabi Office Safe for storing land deeds, audit reports, and payroll records.
- Heavy-Duty Casters: Despite its 260kg weight, the safe is equipped with heavy-duty wheels to assist in positioning during initial installation. These can be removed or blocked once the safe is in its permanent location.
Ideal Use Cases for the 108 Series
- Law Chambers: Ample space for hundreds of original case files and client wills.
- Supermarkets & Wholesalers: The large internal drawer allows for the separation of daily float from long-term cash reserves.
- Hospitals: Secure storage for narcotics, sensitive patient records, and expensive portable diagnostic tools.
- Estates & Mansions: Provides a centralized "safe room" component for jewelry, gold bars, and emergency currency.
Maintenance and Handling Tips
- The 1-Year Battery Rule: For the ESD-108 digital model, never wait for the "Low Battery" light. Replace the four AA or single 9V alkaline batteries every 12 months to ensure the solenoid operates smoothly.
- Avoid Floor Overload: Do not place this safe on a standard wooden floor or a suspended "false floor." It requires a solid concrete base.
- Key Safety: Never store the Master Key or the Emergency Override Key inside the safe. If the electronics fail or you forget the combination, these keys are your only non-destructive way in.
