G U N S A F E S
Safes come in three flavors, burglary, fire and combination burglary
and fire. They also install two ways, above ground and below ground. The
below ground safes are he** to install and usually have a small capacity,
so I will limit this information the above ground type.
Burglary resistant safes have an outer wall of steel plate sometimes
hardened to complicate drilling and usually a 1/4 thick or more. On the
door and frame, hardened steel plates protect the lock and the bolt
mechanism. The inner wall is of similar construction to the outer wall.
The frame (the part the bolts and pins go into) will be solid bar often
hardened. The liner (the part between the walls) varies depending on the
manufacturer. Some use a material similar to concrete with reinforcing
bars. Others use drill rods, ball bearings, hardened plates or a
combination of all the above. The liner may also contain wiring for
connection to an alarm. The goal is to make the safe resistant to
drilling and/or torching. The locking mechanism(s) will include a
relocking device. That way ifsomeone tampers with the combination lock,
the relockkicks out and locks up the bolt mechanism. Burglary safes are
rated by Underwriters Laboratories as to being tool or torch or tool and
torch resistant. This rating reflects how long it takes one of their
professionals to open a certain size hole in the safe. Burglary safes are
very heavy for their size and expensive. Fire safes are constructed of
sheet metal, the frame may be solid or sheet metal. The liner is a
material similar to plaster, it retains a certain amount of moisture
that's released when the safe is exposed to fire the idea is to keep the
interior below the burning point of paper. Fire safes are rated by U.L.
by the number of hours they can withstand a fire and keep the interior
below a certain temperature. Fire safes are lighter and cost less than
the burglary resistant safes. Which to use. If the weight and the price
of a burglary resistant safe is not a problem,they are the best for
storing guns or anything else of value. It's your decision. I use a fire
safe and consider it enough for storing my guns. Apartment dwellers and
others who don't live on the ground floor may find a fire safe is the only
option they have. A burglary resistantsafe large enough to hold rifles,
may exceed the weight capacity of their flooring. Keep in mind if your
safe was to drop in on your neighbors uninvited, it may cause themto
become upset. As for gun safes, some of the ones I have seen at gun shows
are nothing more fire safes. I'm not saying there's no good ones, but
quite often a person can go out and pick up a good used safe for a lot
less money. What to look for. Weight, the heavier the safe the harder it
is to steal. If it has wheels remove, them when you get it where you need
it. If the safe is light enough to be carried by two people or less bolt
it down or build it in, preferably with tamper resistant hardware, If you
build it in make sure it can not be rocked or moved around otherwise you
may find it used as a battering ram. If you bolt your safe to the floor
or a wall don't allow enough clearance that someone can get a pry bar in
and pull out the anchors or the entire safe. Be sure to use the right
anchors for the material you plan on mounting it to. The locking
mechanism. It should have at least two bolts opposite the hinge that
extend a minium of two inches into the frame. The bolts should not be
centered on the locking mechanism. For example if the lock is halfway
from top to bottom on the door. The bolts should be one third and two
thirds down from the top this helps to prevent drilling and punching back
the lock. There should be bolts or pins on the hinge side, this protects
the safe if someone cuts or punches the hinges. There also should be pins
that extend from the door into the frame of the safe towards the rear of
the safe, this helps to prevent someone from spreading the frame away from
the door and releasing the bolts. The bolts and the lock should be
protected by hardened inserts.The safe should have a U.L. listed lock
with a relocking device. The safe it self should be U.L. listed as to
it's type and rating. If your storing guns in a safe and find moisture to
be a problem I suggest using more oil or some other rust preventative. I
have seen fire safes where people have installed heating rods to reduce
moisture inside the safe. Two problems, one the rods dry out the liner
reducing the fire rating and two a hole must be drilled to feed the wire
through. Unless the hole is filled with an approved firestop compound
surrounding the wire, the fire rating will be reduced or lost completely.
Finally remember no safe can keep someone out, it can only slowthem down.
If you have an alarm system, be sure to have your safe connected to it.
Make sure the installer uses a contact that is U.L. listed for safe
protection, all too often installers use regular surface contacts,
installed on the outside thy are easily compromised. To install one on
the inside requires drilling the safe, with all the problems associated
with installing heat rods. If you don't have an alarm consider installing
a basic one, starting with the safe and later expanding it to the entire
premiss and connecting it to a monitoring center.
