<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1558394, member: 13650"]Additional safes or media coolers are a good idea to use inside of a larger fire safe. Most good safes are made to last 2 to 3 hours in a fire and need to be cooled down. Its all about the time. Even the best safe can't be left to cook for 8 hours or the inside will eventually become too hot and cook the contents.</p><p><br /></p><p> Lets say I know of one that's insulated by 2300 degree and separate 1000 degree fabric all the way around, that is used in kilns. So it works like a reverse kiln to keep the heat out. Also large enough to hold a couple Gardalls as media coolers inside that are made for 1700 degree heat. Surrounded by concrete and living a minute away from the fire dept. doesn't hurt either. </p><p><br /></p><p> I don't worry about it.
