[QUOTE="RickieB, post: 1179118, member: 2486"]Guy's a little food for thought. Sentry safes have a place and add an extra layer of protection in 2 ways. Inside my "main safe" I have 2x Sentry safes. These are bolted to the shelves of the main safe from the bottom of the shelf into the bottom of the Sentry safe secured by standard hex nuts on the inside of the Sentry safe. The bottom of the shelf is lined with diamond plate 3/16" painted flat midnight black. A small 3/16" plexiglass bottom is cut and fitted for a floor to shield against the hex nut on the inside. Mounting these inside you safe provides a significant time delay in it's removal by the fact that a thief would have to cut the Sentry off of the shelf and would need rugged saw to get through the diamond plate with it being in a small area.. It also makes it very difficult to remove the shelf with a mounted "little safe on it" from the main safe internal area. It also provides a smaller internal space for your silica gel packs to last much longer between charges. I keep all PM's in the Sentry's as well as the Rare Star Notes of the small size collection. Within the main safe area there is also a .45 ACP Smith and Wesson mounted in a fashion where it would appear that I was removing a container, if forced to open the safe by a crook....therefore providing opportunity to respond. My safe room is positioned where only one person can be in front of the safe at any one time and being right handed, shield against the observation of accquiring the weapon. The internal area (100% of main safe ) is black thus providing additional camoflage for the weapon as well. Just some ideas I thought I would share with you. RickieB[/QUOTE]
