We needed to cover the outdoor tap at a Waitrose, to stop it being used by the public. We shopped around and this was the most suitable for the way it looks and the colour.

Our outside tap is accessible to the public and we noticed one day it had been removed from the wall! We replaced the tap and fitted a Tap Safe over it. It's been an ideal solution, looks neat and is easy to lock. I'd definately recommend Tap Safe

-Monica, Homeowener.

We installed the Tap Safe in a bin store to stop residents from using the tap, it’s been great so far and has also helped stop the tap from being damaged.

Frequently Asked Questions

We've put together our most asked questions here. If you have any further questions about our products or need help with your order feel free to get in touch.

If I need multiple units of Tap Safe, can I get a key that works on them all?

All Uniquely Keyed Tap Safe boxes come with a unique lock and key as standard. If you would like to purchase multiple Tap Safe's and would like to access them all with the same key, chose our ‘Keyed the same’ option, where you will be provided with a set of keys that works on all units. Alternatively, you can choose our numbered padlock version.

How easy is it to install Tap Safe?

Tap Safe is easy to fit and fits over most standard UK outdoor taps. The wall mounted design makes it suitable for taps with concealed or exposed pipework feeding the tap from below or from above (ABOVE must be no greater than 100mm in length). It can be secured with wall plugs and screws. We do not supply the fixings as the type of fixings required will depend on where the unit is being installed.

Will Tap Safe stop my outside tap from freezing in the winter?

Tap Safe is designed to provide total protection your outside taps, including frost. The weather resistant construction helps to protect your taps from frost and freezing conditions. We do recommend, as an extra measure,  in freezing conditions you isolate the water supply and cover the tap and any exposed pipework with suitable insulating material.
