    Hermosabeach..... My house was 3 bedroom... So the 3rd bedroom was my guitar studio.... And I had the safe in the closet.... Took up 1/2 the closet.... The condo is 2 bedroom.... Which means my wife and I share a closet now, and no room for the safe

      I have a 600lb when loaded, gun safe upstairs in a condo. Is the safe you have really big?

            This product might be something worth looking into for those in a similar predicament as the OP

              Unbolted safe is better than no safe.

                Small indoor, climate controller storage unit. Just consider it (the storage rent) as part of your monthly condo rent.

                  can you get an Ikea Armour and build that around the safe... then set it into the second bedroom....

                  I don't know how big your closet was so I don't know how big a safe that takes up 1/2 the closet would be....
                  Rule 1- ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED

                  Rule 2 -NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY (including your hands and legs)

                  Rule 3 -KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET

                  Rule 4 -BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT

                      i have a townhouse and i keep a fairly good size early Browning ProSteel in the living room. i collect industrial furniture and have several very old Snap-on rolling tool boxes inside my home along with the Browning. most of my furniture is from the 1920s-1950s and the old Browning fits right in.

                        Check Out a Job Box...
                        36 inch in a closet with guns and ammo will not be able to be stood up on end ... Standing it up on end is how you get it in and out of the closet.. Plus 200- 300 lbs of guns and ammo makes the job a lot harder to Steal..
                        Job Box itself weighs between 45-60 lbs on its own... Google them..
                        Just an Option I've used in an Upstairs Apartment Before...

                          Be sure to check the details. I was unpleasantly surprised by a $1000 per gun limit (although I did have replacement value coverage) including attached accessories although I'd bought a rider for additional coverage before I got into long guns.

                            When I did that my long guns were stolen along with motorcycle parts, electronics, and the other stuff guys accumulate.

                              What about a modular safe? This is about 330 lbs. 9 gauge. carry it up in pieces and assemble it in an hour. Door weighs about 90 lbs.
                              SnapSafe has a variety of different safe sizes and wire accessories such as organizers and racks. In addition to safes, they also manufacture lock boxes and specialty safes that can be stored in vehicles, under beds, or in walls.

                                Safes are not too heavy. Five grown men standing in a group weigh 1000 lbs. I have yet to hear about a group of 5 people crashing through a floor.
