<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ewomack, post: 3982110, member: 15588&quot;]I completely agree with all of the caution around putting such a large safe in an apartment building. It raises so many questions. How old is the building? How well has it been kept up? What other heavy items will you keep in the same room? Have any repairs been done on your floor that may compromise its structural integrity? You really don&#039;t want to find yourself liable for building damages because that could potentially even bring in legal proceedings (and you may have to sell your collection to pay for all of that nonsense) and the risk really isn&#039;t worth it, though I also don&#039;t know anything about your collection. Not to mention if any personal injuries resulted from an incident. That could get extremely ugly. People always say &quot;it&#039;ll never happen&quot; until it actually does.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you ask the building owner for permission to put in a safe of that magnitude, I&#039;m guessing that the answer would be &quot;no&quot; (I would say no in that situation, or at least make you sign a waiver that would make you liable for everything and anything, but the owner is also putting himself at risk by allowing it) and if you don&#039;t ask the building owner and something happens then you could find yourself in a real heap of trouble.</p><p><br /></p><p>A safe deposit box is probably the much safer option, though it also makes your collection inaccessible. But it pretty much removes all of the potential risks of the unknowns of having a large safe in a second floor apartment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
