Have you just purchased gold or silver and are looking for somewhere secure to store it? Of course, you could store it in a bank or keep it in your home, but a far better option is to use our Storage Vault. Here at Gold Investments, we offer an affordably priced, secure storage service at our London Silver Vaults.
A decade ago, the FBI in America reported that $1.6 billion worth of precious metals were stolen, highlighting a 51% increase from the previous five years. So much has happened in the last decade and a bit, and with the current cost of living crisis, it’s now more important than ever to ensure your valuables are protected.
With many options available, you might be tempted to consider other avenues, but we assure you that vault storage is the way to go. If you would like to learn more about storing your precious metals in one of our vaults, call Gold Investments today on 020 7283 7752.
Highly Secure Storage Vault
If you’ve recently invested in gold or silver or are considering it, you should also consider where you’ll store it. It’s not uncommon for first-time investors to consider using a bank locker. After all, you’ve used a bank all your life, and this is surely what they’re good at. It’s very expensive, however, making it only good for small quantities.
There’s also far less flexibility. For instance, if the market price changes on a Friday and you decide to sell, you likely won’t have access to your precious metals until Monday. But, by then, the price could’ve changed to something more unfavourable.
Investors also often consider storing their precious metals at home in a safe. You’d know where your metals are and could access them at any time. This can make your home a target, so you should keep any knowledge of the safe on a ‘need-to-know’ basis. Crucially, however, gold and silver are not as liquid when stored at home.
In other words, you’d need to have them assessed by a dealer before they can be sold. But, again, this will almost certainly cost you that lucrative market price you’ve spotted.
And this brings us nicely only storage vaults – easily one of the most secure and liquid ways to store your gold and silver. Your metals are accessible, secure, and audited, so they won’t need to be assessed by a dealer. They, therefore, have the liquidity to be bought or sold from one central location at a moment’s notice.
Here at Gold Investments, we recognise that our customers are making sizeable investments and want complete peace of mind. So, we provide highly secure vault storage at our London Silver Vaults. Storage is available from just £4 per ounce per year (a minimum charge of £25 applies per year).
We offer generous discounts for kilo and 100g bars (£50 and £12 respectively). And while stored in our vaults, your metals will be secure, fully insured, and audited by an independent party. The gold and silver are held on your behalf and are in no way connected with our business, so you can trust that it’s safe.
Why You Might Need a Storage Vault?
Why would you need a storage vault? After all, you might have an excellent relationship with your bank, so surely, you’d trust them to look after your investment? Then again, what use is having gold and silver if you have no access? Surely storing it at home makes more sense.
Let’s delve into why you might need a storage vault and why it would be a better decision than the above choices. Benefits of using vault storage include:
- Vaults Provide Better Security
- Your Investment is 100% Insured
- Vaults are Affordable
- External Audits are Included
One of the largest reasons for choosing a vault is security. Our vault security is top-notch, and your gold and silver will be protected physically and financially. We might hold onto it for you, but it’s YOUR gold and silver. It is not tied to our business or creditors in any way. So, your metals won’t be seized should something happen to the business.
Your investment is fully insured while stored in our vaults, meaning that you’ll be fully reimbursed for the value of any metals stolen or lost in the highly unlikely event anything should happen.
While in our vaults, your metals will be independently audited, too. This ensures you receive an unbiased service and a fair valuation of your gold and silver. You don’t even need to have purchased your gold and silver from us. At Gold Investments, we offer storage to everyone, irrespective of where you purchased your metals from.
These audits ensure that, when you choose to sell, you need only give the word, and it’ll be done with the utmost haste.
Lastly, vaults are affordable. You might think that vault storage will set you back a lot, but with prices starting at just £4 an ounce and a minimum charge of £25 per year, vault storage is much more affordable than you might realise.

You might have heard of unallocated metals are gold and silver that you don’t physically own. Instead, it belongs to unsecured creditors, making unallocated gold and silver an investment structure. You (investor) provide capital to the supplier. You assume full risk for the loss of the capital if the supplier becomes insolvent.
With Gold Investments, you can purchase allocated gold and silver, which you physically own. This remains yours, even if we become insolvent.
