Engineering
Construction and Security Features
FA Series safes are built to a higher engineering specification than any standard commercial safe — UL-TL15 certified construction designed to resist sustained tool attack. Every feature below is standard across the range.
UL-TL15 TDR door
Tool, Drill, Resistant door independently tested and certified by Underwriters Laboratories to the TL15 standard.
60mm concrete composite
High-pressured concrete composite throughout body and door — provides resistance to drilling, cutting, and torch attack.

Chrome-plated locking bolts with count scaling 2 → 18 across the range. FA-140 has 14 bolts, FA-180 has 18.
Two independent locks
Every FA Series model is supplied with two independent locking devices for layered security and dual-control access where required.
Anti-drill plating
Hardened steel anti-drill plating, anti-punch case plate, and glass panel relocker — all standard.
Glass panel relocker
Tempered glass panel relocker deploys secondary locking bolts if the primary lock is attacked.
Universal lock footprint
Standardised lock mounting allows easy conversion between key, combination and electronic lock types.
Textured black paint
Durable textured black paint with clear coating provides lasting finish resistant to scratches and corrosion.
Available in base mounting
Available in Left & Right Hand Hinge
FA Series safes can be specified left-hand or right-hand hinge. Standard stock is RHH. Confirm hinge handing and mechanical handling requirements with your dealer at time of order — FA-100 and above require trolley or forklift access for installation.
Lock Options

For Specifiers
DS Series Specification Tips
Sizing scales with insurance, not just storage
Every FA Series model carries the same $250,000 / $2.5M ratings — choose by storage volume and access ergonomics, not by rating. FA-100 is the most common single-business specification at 150L; FA-140 doubles capacity for high-volume operations.
UL-TL15 vs UL-RSC
FA Series is certified to UL-TL15 — a higher burglary standard than the DS Series UL-RSC certification. TL15 specifies tested resistance to specified tools for 15 minutes. Check insurance terms for which certification level your premium is calculated against.
Two independent locks standard
All FA Series models ship with two independent locking devices as standard. This dual-control configuration is part of the UL-TL15 certification and provides layered security for high-value applications.
Lifetime Initiative
Power for Life Free batteries for the lifetime of your safe.
Every DS Series safe with an electronic or biometric lock is covered by our Power for Life initiative. Once a year, you can redeem a free replacement battery at any authorised Dominator dealer — no receipts, no conditions, for as long as you own the safe.
It's our way of making sure your safe stays accessible for decades, not just years.
Power for Life applies across the full range: HS Series, DS Series, GC Series (gun cabinets), FA Series and FX Series.

Setup
Installation
What to expect
FA Series safes require professional installation by your dealer or a qualified safe installer. FA-100 and above require mechanical handling — a trolley, pallet jack or forklift to position the safe.
Floor bolting is essential, even for safes weighing over a tonne. FA Series safes include 2 internal recessed bolt-down provisions on every model. Confirm floor load capacity for FA-140 (943kg) and FA-180 (1557kg) before delivery.
Installation checklist
-
01
Identify fixing bolt provisions — every FA Series model has 2 × internal recessed bolt holes. Confirm hole positions and floor load capacity with your dealer before drilling.
-
02
Identify install position with access clearance (allow for door swing and handing)
-
03
Confirm delivery access route (doorways, corridors, stairs)
-
04
Schedule installation through your dealer — most offer delivery + install as a package
-
05
Keep installation certificate for insurance records
Base Anchoring Provisions
Top-view footprint of each FA Series model showing the two internal recessed floor anchor bolt positions. All footprints shown to scale relative to each other.
Secondary Defence
Glass Relocker Protection
FA Series safes include a glass relocker — a secondary locking mechanism designed to activate if the primary lock is attacked. Understanding how it works helps you know when it’s engaged and what to do if it is.
How it works
A thin glass plate is embedded behind the primary lock body. If a drilling, punch, or torch attack breaks the glass, spring-loaded secondary bolts deploy and jam the locking mechanism. Once activated, the safe cannot be opened even if the primary lock is subsequently bypassed — it requires professional recovery by a qualified safe technician.
The relocker is a permanent protection feature, not a consumable. It exists to make the safe effectively unusable to an attacker even if they partially succeed against the primary lock.
If your relocker activates
If you cannot open your safe and suspect the relocker has engaged (usually after attempted forced entry), contact your Dominator dealer immediately. Do not attempt forced opening — this can cause permanent damage to the safe body.
A qualified safe technician can recover the relocker and restore normal operation. The safe itself remains structurally sound and can usually return to service after a relocker recovery.
Maintenance and Servicing
FA Series safes require minimal maintenance but benefit from occasional service to keep locks and hinges operating smoothly through years of use.
Every 12 months
Battery replacement (electronic/biometric locks)
Redeem your free battery through Power for Life. Replace before low-battery warnings, not after.
Every 12 months
Lock lubrication (mechanical dials)
Apply a drop of lock-grade lubricant to the dial spindle annually. Avoid WD-40 or general-purpose oils — they can gum up precision movements.
Every 12 to 24 months, depending if commercial or domestic use
Professional service
Book a qualified safe technician to inspect hinges, bolt work, and relocker mechanism. Typical service takes 30–60 minutes.
Every 5 years
Seal inspection
Check fire seals (where fitted) for compression and integrity. Replace if damaged.
Support
Troubleshooting
FA Series safes include a glass relocker — a secondary locking mechanism designed to activate if the primary lock is attacked. Understanding how it works helps you know when it’s engaged and what to do if it is.
Electronic lock won't open — no response from keypad.
Battery is most likely depleted. Replace the 9V battery and try your code again. Use a brand-new Duracell 9V Alkaline battery only. If the keypad still doesn’t respond, contact your dealer for diagnosis.
Electronic lock responds but rejects correct code.
Mechanical dial won't open — combination correct but bolts don't retract.
Lock is working, but handle does not unlock.
Safe door is difficult to open or close.
Safe is damaged or inoperable after attempted forced entry.
