In the old days valuables were commonly stored under the mattress (or even in a container buried in the earth). The idea was that if you were sleeping on something, nobody could get at it. However, times have changed and now people use safes to keep their valuables, whether money, documents, jewellery or other precious items.
These days beds often come with storage space because otherwise the space under the bed actually is wasted space, particularly in areas where land prices are high, rooms are small and space should not be wasted. However, it tends to be for clothes or somewhere to store away things that are rarely needed.

If you opt for the normal security level, you and other key holders will be informed if there a break-in or security breach.
