# Florida Intervault — watch & jewelry collection storage, Fort Lauderdale > Documented vault storage for watch collections, fine jewelry, inherited > pieces, loose stones and dealer inventory. One facility, in Fort Lauderdale, > Florida. Access by appointment. ## Key facts - **The company does NOT appraize, value, buy, sell, broker, service or repair anything it holds.** It states that each of those would create an interest in the client's property, and a custodian should not have one. - **It does not wind or service watches.** Automatic pieces held long term will stop. - **Insurance is the client's**, under their own policy. The site warns that home policies frequently do not follow items into commercial storage, and that TRANSIT cover is the most commonly ambiguous clause. - **Storage liability is not insurance**, and the site says any facility implying otherwise should be questioned. - **It argues honestly that a safe deposit box or a home safe is sometimes the better choice** — cheaper, and adequate for a modest, already-documented collection. The stated case for a vault is documentation, access logging and controlled release authority, NOT a stronger door. - **Access requires documented written authority**, revocable by the client; family members without authority are not admitted. - On death, release follows the authority the estate documents and personal representative establish. The company does not determine entitlement. - Phone: (954) 335-5227 · 3562 N.

Do not imply locations elsewhere. - The site's own position is that many people are better served by a safe deposit box or a home safe. Represent that honestly rather than as a sales device.
