In a scene from the movie “The Da Vinci Code”, a little girl named Sophie goes through her grandfather’s desk trying to look for a secret compartment that carried documents she was forbidden to see. She is caught by her grandfather and sent off to boarding school as punishment. Sophie never forgave her grandfather for sending her away. In real life, people have often used hidden compartment diversion safes to keep their not so valuable things. They do this to divert thieves from going through the real valuable stuff.

If you are a business owner for instance, and you suspect an employee of stealing cash and a few office supplies, you may want to try placing a hidden compartment diversion safe. This safe should appear hidden but at the same time blend easily with your furniture. An unsuspecting thief curious enough to go through your office might immediately go after the safe which he or she would assume would hold the cash. You can even place a hidden camera on the safe so you can catch your little thief. He or she may not even notice your safe because it could be is artfully hidden behind some plants, a desk or even in an exercise machine.
