<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 7570403, member: 112&quot;]There have been a whole lot of threads written about this subject and I suggest you take the time to look them up and read them. And yeah there are dos and don&#039;ts. Some of which have already been mentioned.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do - buy a good quality safe with a good burglary rating and a high fire rating. And it&#039;s preferable to buy a safe with a double lock system, one that requires not only the proper combination, but also a key to open it - neither one by itself will open the safe, both are required. Do visit a locksmith shop, talk to them, ask questions, and know what questions you want to ask before you get there. You can buy from the locksmith or you can buy from the manufacturer, but talk to a locksmith before you do either one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t - buy one of the cheap safes sold at discount stores. Don&#039;t buy a safe with anything but painted metal inside it - no fabric, no liners, no anything but painted metal. </p><p><br /></p><p>Mechanical combination dials vs electronic combination pads. The choice is yours of course but mechanical never fails, electronic depends on batteries, and batteries die. And yeah those selling the electronic will tell you that if the batteries die you can always open the safe with a key. And you can, but if you do then you have negated the advantage of a double lock system - which is only available with mechanical combination systems. </p><p><br /></p><p>There are good manufacturers, so so manufacturers, and bad manufacturers - stick with the good ones. The old saying of you get what you pay for is never more important than when buying a safe. To protect money, you gotta spend money.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is one of the good ones - <a href="https://www.amsecusa.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amsecusa.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.amsecusa.com/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
