My First Safe!

[Sabesimpson]

Empty indeed! Fill that thing up

[RamonSJC]

Fill it with stacks of $100's. Then when it's overflowing, take the stacks and buy guns!

[golfish]

Nice OP, very nice. You need to get that ammo out of there and fill up the other side with guns

Get one of those JOBOX type tool boxes, bolt it down to your garage floor and fill it with your ammo.

I need to make a Costco run.

Yes this is the costco 30 min fire safe. Was on sale for 499.

I live in military housing. Crime is all but non existent; no need to really bolt it down. We dont have kids yet..and if our cats are somehow able to knock this over...good for them

On sale until 10/26.

The ad says $599. How did you get it for $499?

I live in military housing, so 1. I cant just start drilling into the foundation and 2. crime is super super low.

the only reason I wanted the safe was because sometimes maintenance workers have to come in and do routine checks on...whatever...and while they all get screen and have background checks, you never know.

Looks like it will do for now,till the wife adds her stuff.

Then You will find out in short order, It's WAY too small

FWIW that's the in to a second safe to park next to that one.

Do you have to bolt it down? I fear with safes kids might topple it and kill themselves.

Your first safe is almost as cool as your first car. Your own personal secure space where you can keep your coolest stuff. If you're like me you'll find a reason to open it a couple of times per day for the first month or so (Yep, guns are still there, just checking).

I have the model just above yours and there is a free warranty offered by Rhino Metals (Bighorn Safe Manufacturers). Cant remember what the warranty is (safe being stolen or safe being broken into?) but I do remember clearly that the safe must be bolted down in order for the warranty to be effective. Not sure if your model is the same but worth looking into. Congrats they are good safes for the money.

Looks exactly like my safe.

No, mine in still bolted to the wall in my bedroom.

It took 2 of us to get it in the room.
At 435LB it is a little heavy for 1 guy.

[Flintlock Tom]

That's a really nice looking safe!
What's the combo?
And, your address?
And, your work hours?

Not for me, I'm asking for a friend.

What's a "Mu"?

Careful, or Ivan will be in to edit your post.

You don't want to be a windbag demeaning other members, now do you?

[roc_my_tims]

Never saw that one.

This size was $599 + tax delivered to my curb.

[Virus55]

Fill it now

A kid isn't going to knock it down. But you have to bolt it down if you don't want a thief knocking it on its back and prying the door open. The warranty requires that the safe be bolted down too.

A safe like that can easily topple over when the door is open at 90 degrees. About 1/3 of the weight of a safe is in the door. It doesn't take a lot of force pulling on the door before the safe begins to tilt. I suggest you bolt or strap it down.

There's only a sheet of 10 gauge in that door. Well that and the reinforced frame/fireproofing. The door appears to be real thick but that's because it's composite.
