I have one in the Bangkok Bank, Kad Suan Kaew. Not expensive and always easy to access, but don't lose the key otherwise its 5-10,000 Baht.

I also have a safety deposit box in the Bangkok Bank.

Cost 600 baht per year to rent and my wife told me it`s 38000 baht if you lose the key.

This is because the boxes and keys are made by Chubb and imported.

If rented in joint names you are issued with two keys.

You are required to have an account with whatever bank you rent the box.

If rented in joint names you are issued with two keys.

So if there only one name on the account, you only get one key with a 38k penalty if you lose it. Cute

Can it be duplicated and without fear of theft?

This key would be extremely difficult to duplicate.

The design is very complex and made from solid brass.

The reason the bank charges so much for loss of keys is because if the key is lost they replace the whole unit including the draw.

I only have an account in one name and I have two keys. Mind you I have rented it since 1998, so maybe they have changed the rules since then.....38,000 Baht....WOW!!

I think I need to keep my other key in the safety deposit box.
