Hayman MagnaVault Burglar Fire Safe - MVEX-1512
Hayman MagnaVault Burglar Fire Safe - MVEX-1512
NEW for 2015, the Hayman MVEX-1512 burglar fire safe is a top of the line fully reinforced safe that will give you peace of mind in protecting what matters to you. The outside has been re-designed, but the size and construction has not changed. The safe is built with heavy composite construction, 1-1/8 inch diameter bolts and a massive 4 1/2" thick door and up to 5 - 1/4 inch angled hard plates and multiple glass relocking devices which activate when punching, hammering and drilling attempts are made on the safe. These security features are all designed to keep the safe as secure as possible.
The MVEX-1512 MagnaVault safe has a 105 minute fire rating tested at an external temperature of 1275 degrees while the inside only got as hot as 350 degrees. Hayman manufactures this safe with a fire resistant material incorporated in between the steel in the safe. Normal unprotected steel will transfer heat as quickly as possible. The material on the Hayman MVEX-1512 blocks the transfer of heat keeping the inside relatively cool. You can actually store paper items in the safe and be worry free if a fire ever occurs. Along with the fire rating is a intumescent door seal that swells at high temperatures to seal the door from fire and smoke. The standard lock on the MVEX-1512 is a SecuRam digital electronic lock with a TopLit keypad. A dial combination lock can be installed for an additional charge.
Not only does the MVEX-1512 MagnaVault series have great burglar and fire protection, it has the looks to go with it. It comes in a textured gray, black & white paint finish with tempered glass shelves. This was finished with a proprietary 7 step application that is finished off with a clear coat for long lasting beauty.

Maintenance Tips
- Maintain Electronic Lock Performance: Test the SecuRam digital lock monthly and replace batteries annually to avoid lockouts and ensure reliable access.
- Inspect Door Seal & Fire Protection: Check the intumescent seal regularly—this expands during fire to block heat and smoke, preserving the 105-minute fire rating.
- Lubricate Bolt System & Hinges: Apply light lubrication to 1-1/8" locking bolts and ball-bearing hinges every 6–12 months for smooth, long-term operation.
- Keep Interior Dry & Organized: Use silica gel or a dehumidifier to protect documents and valuables from moisture damage, especially given the fire-resistant composite interior.
- Clean Exterior Finish: Wipe the multi-layer painted steel surface with a soft cloth to maintain durability and corrosion resistance.
- Check Security Components: Periodically inspect hard plates, relockers, and bolt alignment to ensure resistance against drilling or forced entry.
- Verify Anchoring Stability: Ensure the safe remains securely bolted down—proper installation enhances burglary protection and prevents tipping.
