<p>[QUOTE="dmott88, post: 1322820, member: 33129"]After the Tornado that took out 12.5 Miles of my town on May 22nd I highly highly disapprove of any saftey deposit boxes what so ever. I had one with my life savings in silver at a local bank. It crumbled and I'm sure someone else ended up with my collection. The bank pretty much said "Sorry about your luck." They wouldn't compensate for anything. I agree with FryDaddy with a floor safe or something of that nature. </p><p>I currently use an old rugged filing cabinet. I built a frame around it and bolted it to the wall in my closet. Then I use a long thick chain that is ran through the door handles and into eyelets on the frame. It is the same concept I had before the Tornado and what was stored inside never budged. The rest of the house leveled but my frame and cabinet were still in the same spot. Now this was no ordinary tornado, it was the worst in history. Winds excess of 212 mph. I now wish I had everything stored inside it and nothing at the bank. We even had some looters in the mix while I was loading the other items I could salvage and transport them to another area. They couldn't get in.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
