Servicing and Installation of Safes

What Is PSA 94 Certification?

PSA 94 is the Private Security Authority’s official licensing standard for businesses involved in the supply, installation, or servicing of safes, vaults, strong rooms, ATM safes, and deposit safes in Ireland. These assets are central to physical security, and improper installation can lead to significant security vulnerabilities. PSA 94 sets out requirements for professional conduct, secure installation practices, and appropriate documentation to support a consistent, high-quality standard of work. Companies must hold this licence to legally operate in this specialist area of the private security industry.
