  • Patent number: 11787611
    Abstract: A storage apparatus which allows the secure storage of items within a cavity defined by a base, side walls and a top. Access can be gained to the cavity to allow the removal of introduction of said items by moving a portion of the apparatus between open and closed positions. Locking means are provided to allow the said portion to be retained in a closed position and at least one part of the apparatus is or is provided with at least one sacrificial element such that if a force is applied thereto in an attempt to break the locking means and gain unauthorised access to the cavity, the sacrificial element will break before a sufficient level of force can be applied to break the locking means and hence prevent the said at least one part being used as a means to exert force to break the locking means and gain unauthorised access and theft of items from the said cavity.
