<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Speedbump, post: 2275920, member: 75637&quot;]This ultimately depends on what you are trying to protect. I am going to presume it’s not a huge amount considering it currently fits into a fire chest… but for all I know, it could be a 100oz bar of gold or nuclear launch codes… Only you know what it is, and it should stay that way.</p><p><br /></p><p>A TL-15 is a substantial box. Even the small ones can weigh more than gun safes 3x their size. A UL rated RSC is technically a “TL-5” if I recall correctly. Why they just don’t call it that, I’m not sure. </p><p><br /></p><p>If your primary concern is simple burglaries, then a RSC or similar will likely suffice. Again, you are only trying to deter them for the short period of time they are going to be in your home. A monitored alarm system will force them out within a few minutes. If you hide it well, they may never find it anyways. Master bedroom closet is not a good place by the way… </p><p><br /></p><p>RSC or those &quot;B&quot; and &quot;C&quot; rated safes can be easily breached by someone that knows what they are doing and has modest tools available to them. If you fear a thief may come prepared with tools like metal-cutting equipment and pry bars, then consider a higher security TL rated safe.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, be sure to get something that will fit your needs looking forward. Its going to be a sizable investment no matter what. Make it count. Consider both size and level of security. If in the future you think you might have $100K+ (arbitrary number) of stuff to protect in one place, then definitely consider one of those TL rated safes now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
