Arregui PLUS C - Safe Installation; Safe Embedding and Wall Preparation

Safe embedding
• Proper and correct installation of the safe to be embedded is essential for the security of the product.
• Before embedding, the safe’s correct functioning must be checked by carrying out door opening and closing tests (see the
set of operating instructions).
• The safe must be installed with the door opening from left to right (except for left-sided opening models). It must never be
installed turned around, or be placed on the oor. The guarantee cover is invalid if these conditions are not complied with.
• The safe must be installed maintaining a 2-cm gap towards the inside of the wall in which it is being installed..
1. It is advisable to position the safe in places where access with large size tools
such as picks, hammers, cudgels and spikes etc., but where access to the
door is easy for the user.
2. Choose a Wall at least 10 cm thicker than the depth of the safe, and check
that the Plus C range has a multi-positional telescopic body Avoid walls with
condensation or moisture problems in order to prevent damage to the locking
system mechanisms.
3. Drill a bore hole on the chosen Wall of 15cm greater in width and height than
the acquired safe’s dimensions, and to a depth 7cm greater than the depth
of the safe.
4. Provide suitable protection to the safe door area using plastic sheeting to
avoid moisture and mortar damage to the locking system areas.
5. A lath with a grid size of 50 x 50 mm should be placed around the four side
faces and the rear face using diameter 8 rods. There should be a 3-cm gap
to the walls.
6. Produce a wooden panel in the form of shuttering to cover the front part,
leaving a useful space for the application of the mortar required to ll the
gap left.
7. Fill up the embedding area with high-resistance cement composed of type
CEM II A-LL 42.5R according to BS (British Standards) UNE EN 197-1, using
sand and water, carefully lling and compacting the mortar evenly over the
area without leaving unlled areas. The use of quick-try cement is advised.
8. Once the applied mortar has set and hardened, leave the door open for 5
days to get rid of residual moisture from the casing. Finish off the wall with a
coat of plaster or other coverings. Take special care to avoid contamination
with any residual element or dirt, etc., during casing procedures, mortar
lling, plastering, painting or the application of other types of nal nishes by
ensuring these do not get into door surround areas, in key holes, keypads or
other elements and locking systems (keypads, external battery connections...)
