“Our excellent business position is making demands on our logistics operations,” explained managing director Frank Steinhardt. “The new central warehouse will enable us to deal more efficiently with the high volume of orders.”
The new central warehouse has an area of more than 900 square metres; at the moment, all purchased parts are stored here, but it will in addition serve as an intermediate warehouse for finished products.

“Bode-Panzer will benefit from the new facility at many different levels,” stated Steinhardt. “The construction of the new warehouse lays the foundation for optimised warehouse management and concurrently the ongoing reconciliation of the target and actual figures for the consumption of materials.”

Bode-Panzer had previously invested in a new bending machine from Trumpf at the beginning of the year, and the successful operational startup of the equipment was in April. It makes the production of single pieces significantly faster and provides automatic measurement of target and actual dimensions. “The machine that was previously used had simply reached the limits of its capacity — especially in terms of the time and effort required for programming it,” according to Steinhardt. In comparison, the intuitive menu navigation of the new bending machine is a convincing feature that makes programming simple and substantially faster.

These new investments are a continuation of the course Bode-Panzer has laid out for its future development. Bode-Panzer has been just as active in this respect in past years, investing in production technology and production sites so that it could meet special customer needs relating to delivery dates and delivery quantities or other demands.

“We are so incredibly proud that we have been able to continue successfully the history of this company over so many years,” said Frank Steinhardt, managing director at Bode-Panzer. More than 250 employees at the production plant in the Czech Republic build more than 100 safes and vaults every day, which are then sold via a worldwide network of dealers and directly to end customers.

“During the many high and low points of our 160 years of company history, we have acquired a tremendous storehouse of experience that we can draw on for our benefit and, above all, for the benefit of our customers. Continuous innovations, an understanding of the many different needs and demands on the markets and far-sighted business acumen and willingness to invest drive us onward.”

In the last two years alone, Bode-Panzer has invested in production technology and production sites that contribute to satisfying the special needs of customers such as delivery dates and delivery quantities.

The certified single and system solutions that the company with a long tradition produces itself can be found in use all around the world today and protect countless items requiring special physical protection — for instance, in the banking and retail sectors, in the OEM field or even for private individuals. Bode-Panzer is not only a leading manufacturer of high-quality safes and vaults; the company is today respected as a provider of complete solutions for security, process optimisation and logistics.

In addition, Bode-Panzer holds a strong position as an attractive employer in the production region Czech Republic. “We could not be so successful without our employees, from welders to bookkeepers. That is why I want to express my most sincere thanks to our entire team,” emphasised Steinhardt.

As a rule, the following lock designs are installed:

double bit security locks (always provided with two keys).

Benefit: you do not need to remember a numerical code for these safe locks, or write the code down in a ‘secret’ place.

In the event of burglary, it is easy to trace who might have opened the safe with his or her key. Numerical safe codes, in contrast, can frequently be passed on without precise knowledge of how often this has taken place.

Drawback: in most cases key management is a laborious affair. No more than 2 keys exist for each lock. Service teams need to pick up the key. It is difficult to procure a replacement in the event of loss.

Mechanical numerical lock (the numerical code can be adjusted independently and at any time using a reset code. Naturally, only the owner of the currently valid code is able to perform a reset).

Benefit: you do not require a key to open this kind of numerical lock, which means it cannot be lost (mental lock).

Drawback: the combination can be passed on any number of times without control. In most cases the reset process is extremely elaborate. The combinations should be changed in regular intervals.

Electronic lock (codes are input – usually between 6 and 8 characters – via a keypad. Besides the basic functions, individual models come with software versions that can be installed in the locks to suit individual areas of application as required, e.g. with a time delay according to the accident prevention guidelines governing cash desks in banks [UVV-Kassen].):

Benefit: you do not require a key to open this kind of numerical lock, which means it cannot be lost (mental lock).

Drawback: the combination can be passed on any number of times without control. In most cases the reset process is extremely elaborate. The combinations should be changed in regular intervals.

Electronic locks are now standard for safe cabinets. Seeking to optimise processes, also to allow for flexible HR deployment/external contracting of cash-in-transit services, a large number of financial institutions are currently refitting mechanical locks with electronic locks.
Bode Panzer provides a comprehensive selection of mechanical and electronic locking systems. Among others, our range of locks includes the manufacturers SAFECOR, INSYS locks, pylocx, KABA or SARGENT and GREENLEAF.
