The group

Affiliated with the Commonwealth Vault Group — vaults in New Zealand since 1998.

Terms in plain language

A refundable key deposit of $180 applies. Deposits and renewal, all set out in the published terms.

Boxes have a weight limit. Something larger or heavier — a painting, a substantial silver holding, your own safe, or a secure cage — can be arranged; ask us when you visit.

Access

Visit whenever you need to.

Your box, whenever we’re open, in private.

1Come in

Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm, as often as you like. No appointment needed to visit your own box — though book ahead and we will be ready for you.

2Verify

Biometric entry, photo identification, and two keys to open the box — yours and ours, together. Only you, and one other person you have named, can access it.

3Take your time

A private room, for as long as you need. What is in your box is your business.

Two ways to hold a box

Rent it by the year — or take a longer term.

Renting is simple: pay by the year, and renew for as long as you want to keep it.

Rent

Pay by the year

The simple way. The box is yours for the year, and you renew it each year for as long as you want to keep it.

Reserve a box

Own

For a lifetime and beyond — the box is yours

For customers who know the box will stay in the family, there is a long-term alternative to yearly rental. Its terms are being finalised — ask us when you visit, and we will take you through it.

Reserve a box

Security

The vault around your box.

Everything here exists so that what you put in your box stays exactly as you left it.

The building

A purpose-built vault at 22 King William Street in the centre of Adelaide.

Entry

Biometric access to the vault. Only account holders come in.

Watched

Continuous surveillance, around the clock.

Two keys

Your box opens with two keys together — yours, and ours. Neither works alone.

In private

Your box is opened by you, in a private room, and by no one else.

Some of our measures are not published. That is part of the point.

Questions

Common questions

Compare sizes and prices below, and reserve the one that fits.

What does a safe deposit box cost in Adelaide?

Every size and its yearly price is in the table above, so you can check the cost before you visit.

What can I keep in a box?

Almost anything that matters to you — documents, jewellery, coins, bullion, small heirlooms. The exceptions are liquids, and anything dangerous, perishable or illegal. The full list is in the published terms.

Who else can access my box?

Only you, and one other person you have named on the box. That applies to individual, joint, business and trust accounts alike. Every visit needs your keys and photo identification.

Can I store gold and silver I buy from you?

Yes. Gold and silver you buy from us can go straight into your box, without leaving the building.

Are you connected to Commonwealth Vault in New Zealand?

Yes. Vault Australasia is an independent Australian company, affiliated with the Commonwealth Vault Group, which has operated vaults in New Zealand since 1998. Adelaide is our home.
