Docking Station Installation Information

Due to public liability and general insurance reasons we cannot state exactly how to install a Laptop Safe Docking Station into any surface.

But what we can do is list ways the Laptop Safe Docking Station has been previously installed in various locations by us and purchasers throughout Australia and world-wide. This allows the purchaser to make the final decision about how their Laptop Safe Docking Station is installed.

to make the final decision how their

Suggested Fasteners

Fastener types to install
a Docking Station.

The Laptop Safe Docking Station can be installed to almost any flat surface and at any angle, even upside down. The Laptop Safe Docking Station has four rows of five pre-drilled holes in it and we recommend what ever type of fastener you decide to use to install the Docking Station you place a fastener in the 20 pre-drilled holes.

The picture to your left shows various fastener types that can be used depending on what the Docking Station is being installed to, click it to enlarge.

When installed correctly the Laptop Safe Docking Station is kept rigid by what it is affixed to eg. Brick, Concrete or Wood Wall or Floor, Vehicle Fixing Kit Steel Bracket, Marine Ply, 6mm Ply / Craft Wood, 3mm Steel Plate and other surfaces not mentioned.

Fixing Holes In The Docking Station Not Big Enough

If the pre-drilled fixing holes in the Laptop Safe Docking Station are not large enough for your selected fastener type eg. screws / bolts etc. it is ok to enlarge the holes by using a high speed steel drill, the same diameter as the fastener.

This ensures, if a thief did find your Laptop Safe it would be practically impossible to prize it away from the surface it is installed to eg. Brick, Concrete, Wood Wall or Floor, to the floor in a Caravan or Motor Home and any other surface not mentioned.

Since 1993, when the first Safe was sold,

we are not aware of a single installed

Laptop Safe ever being stolen.
