Product Overview
Here’s a straightforward, robust solution for managing your daily takings. The Safewell CG766 is a classic, no-nonsense cash box designed for security and convenience in any small business setting. It’s the kind of essential kit that you’ll rely on day in, day out, providing a secure place for notes, coins, and cheques right where you need it.
It's an absolute must for anyone handling cash away from a permanent till – think market stalls, mobile caterers, school fetes, or pop-up shops. It’s also brilliant for cafes, takeaways, and restaurants that need a separate, lockable cash box for restaurants to manage tips, a float, or petty cash away from the main register. Its compact size means it tucks away neatly under a counter or in a vehicle.
Built from tough steel with a high-quality lock and a handy carry handle, this compact cash storage box 200 x 160mm is designed for the rigours of commercial life. An internal divider keeps your currency organised, making transactions and cashing up a breeze. It’s the simple, dependable way to keep your hard-earned cash safe and sound.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
'The Salty Cod', a traditional fish and chip shop in Whitby, needed a more robust and organised way to handle cash during their famously busy summer evenings. Their old tin box was dented and the lock was unreliable, causing delays during cash-up.
"We were just using a flimsy old tin. This box is solid, the divider is brilliant for separating notes and coins, and it just feels far more professional and secure. It's a small change that has made a big difference to our end-of-day routine."
Robert Miller – Owner, The Salty Cod
By using the organised tray and having a reliable lock, the team reduced their end-of-day cashing-up time by 10-15 minutes and eliminated counting errors.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- When your box arrives, give it a quick check over and make sure you have the two keys.
- Test the lock a few times to ensure it turns smoothly before you put any cash inside.
- Pop the plastic divider tray in – you can arrange it to best suit your mix of coins and notes.
- Most importantly, put the spare key somewhere safe and memorable, but separate from the box!
Keeping It Going
- A simple wipe with a damp cloth is all that's needed to keep the exterior and interior clean.
- Avoid using harsh scouring pads or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the powder-coated finish.
- If the lock ever feels a bit stiff, a tiny drop of general-purpose lubricant will sort it out.
- Periodically check that the handle is still securely fixed to the lid, especially with frequent use.

A: It is supplied with two keys as standard. We strongly recommend keeping the spare in a separate, secure location.

A: Yes, the plastic divider tray can be lifted out completely. This is useful for cleaning or if you need one large compartment for storage.
Q: What is the cash box made from?
A: The body is constructed from durable steel, with a tough powder-coated paint finish for added resilience.
Q: Can this cash box be bolted down to a counter?

A: Absolutely. The powder-coated finish is specifically designed to be highly resistant to the chipping and scratching common in everyday use.

Phoenix: Decades of Trust in Security

This cash box is a perfect example of their philosophy: simple, effective, and built to do its job without fuss, day in and day out. For a small business owner, that reliability is invaluable. It's one less thing to worry about. The lock won't jam, the handle won't fail, and the body will withstand the rigours of a busy commercial environment. This isn't a disposable item; it's a small but crucial part of your daily operational toolkit, designed to provide consistent, trustworthy performance for years to come.
Explore more from PhoenixWhy a Powder-Coated Finish Matters
You might see 'powder-coated finish' and think it’s just a fancy term for paint, but it's a bit more clever than that. Instead of wet paint, a dry powder is electrostatically applied to the steel box. It’s then baked in an oven, which melts the powder into a smooth, continuous, and incredibly tough skin.
Think of it like baking a protective shell directly onto the metal, rather than just painting a layer on top that can easily be chipped or scratched off. This is why this metal cash storage box for cafes is so resistant to the knocks, scrapes, and rust that are inevitable in a busy commercial environment, keeping it looking professional for much, much longer.
Who Should Buy This?
- Small Cafes & Bistros: Perfect for managing a separate till float or keeping staff tips secure in the office.
- Market Stall Holders: An essential, portable solution for handling cash securely at farmers' markets, craft fairs, and events.
- Mobile Food Vans: A great secure cash box for takeaway businesses, keeping takings safe on the move between locations.
- Clubs & Charities: Ideal for collecting subs, donations, or ticket money at events, meetings, and fundraisers.
