<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 732304, member: 4552"]lots of posts about safes. Possilby a search on this forum would pop up with a lot of them. My 2 cents is as follows:</p><p>If people see a safe being delivered, stories will build up how you have so much money you need a safe. Eventually criminals too will hear this. Now if you think that safe makes it safe, a gun to your head will open it so fast you would really wonder why you ever got one.</p><p>Many say to bolt it to the floors and/or walls. One neighbor of mine HAD a safe bolted to the floor and walls. When his house was robbed they not only took that safe, but they also tool the alarm system. They had one of those where they call and ask if everything is OK. The burglers told them everything is OK. </p><p>So now you have a safe. Hopefully you have a great place for one. A place where it will not be seen. If seen by friends, neighbors, relatives, they too will start saying how you have millions in there. </p><p>If you place all your coins in there, don't forget you now have closed in the humidity when you slam the door. So now get those gel packs for that safe. </p><p>And in case of a fire the average good safe will not let things get burned. Someone I know told me it did protect everything from a fire. UNFORTUNATELY all the heat melted all the plastic all over everything. </p><p>Good luck with your safe. </p><p>I'll stick to a safe deposit box in the bank and a little fake wall in my house.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
