Mesa MFL2731EE Dual Chamber Depository Safe

Dual-chamber drop safe: secure deposits without opening the vault

Built for retail and cash-handling teams, the Mesa MFL2731EE Dual Chamber Depository Safe lets staff drop cash and valuables through a front-loading mailbox slot without accessing the locked interior. Two separate compartments and a battery-powered MSL-500 electronic lock with a 3/16-inch drill-resistant hard plate manage two cash streams under one door. It is imported and is not fire-rated by design.

This is a substantial floor unit: the body measures 27.25 inches high, 30.75 inches wide, and 21 inches deep and weighs 247 pounds, with four pre-drilled anchor holes for bolting to a concrete floor. Each chamber accepts deposits through a 3.5-by-10-by-5-inch deposit door fed by an internal hopper, keeping the working interior fully enclosed.

Engineering & Security

• ✓1-inch solid steel door: Each door is a 1-inch-thick solid steel plate, resisting prying and forced-entry leverage at the most attacked point of the safe.
• ✓Five 1-inch locking bolts per door: Five solid steel live-locking bolts, each 1 inch in diameter, engage on every door to spread holding force across the frame.
• ✓Dead bar door retention: A heavy-duty dead bar blocks the door from being pulled off during a pry or forced-entry attempt even if the hinges are attacked.
• ✓MSL-500 electronic lock: Battery-powered keypad supports six codes plus optional dual-control entry, with a wrong-try lockout penalty that frustrates repeated guessing.
• ✓3/16-inch drill-resistant hard plate: A spring-loaded relocker sits behind a 3/16-inch hard plate, protecting the lock against drill and punch attacks.
• ✓Not fire-rated by design: This is a security depository safe with no fire rating; pair it with off-site deposits for documents needing fire protection.

Cash Management & Workflow

• ✓Front-loading mailbox slot: Staff drop cash and valuables through a 3.5-by-10-by-5-inch deposit door without unlocking the safe, limiting cash exposure at the counter.
• ✓Anti-fish baffle: An internal baffle blocks fishing tools from retrieving deposits back out through the slot after they are dropped.
• ✓Dual-chamber separation: Two individual compartments let one safe segregate two cash streams, shifts, or departments under separate locking doors.
• ✓Hopper-fed deposits: A 5.5-by-10-by-11-inch internal hopper guides each drop into the locked body, keeping the working interior fully enclosed.
• ✓Four floor anchor holes: Pre-drilled holes let installers bolt the 247-pound body to concrete, removing the safe-walks-away risk for register-area placement.

Ideal Buyer & Use Cases

The MFL2731EE suits retail, restaurant, and service businesses that need staff to deposit cash throughout a shift without opening the safe, and that want two separate compartments under one anchored unit. At 27.25 inches high, 30.75 inches wide, and 21 inches deep and weighing 247 pounds, it is a floor-anchored fixture rather than a portable box.
