KUALA LUMPUR 21 Sept. - MySafebox Sdn. Bhd. merancang untuk membuka 100 pusat perkhidmatan peti simpanan deposit (SDB) di seluruh negara dalam tempoh lima tahun.
Pengarahnya, William Tan berkata, sebagai permulaan kepada rancangan itu, syarikat merancang menubuhkan tiga pusat yang sama di Lembah Klang dalam tempoh 12 bulan akan datang
''Pusat SDB pertama di Taman Serdang Raya, Seri Kembangan, Serdang, telah memulakan operasi semalam,'' katanya dalam satu kenyataan hari ini. Dengan tidak mengehadkan operasi mengikut waktu pejabat, pusat SDB beroperasi selama 24 jam sehari sepanjang tahun, katanya.
"Pusat ini adalah yang pertama seumpamanya dalam negara ini. Para pelanggan boleh datang dan membuka peti simpanan deposit mereka sama ada untuk mengambil barangan atau untuk menyimpannya pada sebarang masa pada siang hari atau pada malamnya di sepanjang tahun," jelas beliau.
Tan berkata, perkhidmatan SDB syarikat dijangka mendapat sambutan kerana ia menawarkan ciri-ciri keselamatan terkini.
"Selain mempunyai kakitangan keselamatan bersenjata terlatih, bangunan itu (di Serdang) mempunyai lebih daripada 40 kamera televisyen litar tertutup yang menyalurkan imej kepada sistem pengawasan berpusat.
"Pembinaan bilik kebalnya adalah cukup teguh dengan dinding setebal 13 inci yang kukuh menggunakan bahan bertetulang khusus seperti plat semak, palang dan konkrit dinding yang kukuh," katanya.
Menurut Tan, MySafebox merancang untuk menggunakan premisnya sebagai hab mesin juruwang automatik bagi bank untuk memanfaatkan ciri-ciri keselamatan yang sudah tersedia di pusat berkenaan.

First Round - The Clock ... Safe Deposit Box Service !
MALAYSIA'S first 24-hour safe deposit box service - MySAFEBOX - will start operating its first centre in Seri Kembangan, Selangor, today.
"Customers can come and open their safe deposit boxes (SDB) either to pick up items or to store them at any time of the day or night throughout the year," MySAFEBOX director William Tan said in a statement.
He said the company has invested over RM5 million to incorporate the latest security and safety features at the centre to give customers peace of mind, and offers convenience in terms of location.
The centre in Taman Serdang Raya will cater primarily to the estimated 450,000 residents of Seri Kembangan and neighbouring areas.
"With the availability of this facility, we hope we can create a greater awareness amongst members of the public on the proper way of safe keeping their valuable belongings," Tan said.
"With such awareness, we believe the security and safety of this area will be improved."
Besides well-trained armed security personnel, the building has more than 40 closed-circuit TV (CCTV) cameras feeding images to a central monitoring system that is manned round the clock.
The central monitoring system is also linked to the police and fire and rescue department with fixed lines and wireless telephones.
The safe deposit boxes are on the first and second floors.
To gain access, customers have to go through a number of security control procedures, including inspection by advanced bio-matrix security systems for face and fingerprint recognition.
The vault itself has been built with 13 inch strong walls using special reinforced materials such as checked plate, tank bar and strong wall concrete.
According to the statement, MySAFEBOX also plans to establish its premises as an ATM hub for banks to capitalise on the centre's security features that are already in place.
"The company plans to set up three similar centres in the Klang Valley over the next 12 months and 100 more throughout the country over the next five years," it added.
