Choosing and living with a safe
Safes are rated for two different threats and the ratings are not interchangeable. Burglary ratings describe how long a container resists attack with given tools. Fire ratings describe how long the interior stays below a temperature for a given exposure. A fire-rated cabinet is often quite easy to force, and a burglary-rated safe may offer little fire protection. Buying for the wrong threat is the most common mistake.
Match the container to what is going in it. Documents and digital media need fire protection, and media in particular needs a lower internal temperature than paper. Jewelry, cash and firearms need burglary resistance and anchoring. Where you need both, that is a specific type of safe rather than an assumption you can make about any given model.
Then there is the part people skip: write the combination down and store it somewhere other than the building the safe is in, keep a note of the make, model and serial number, and change the batteries in an electronic lock on a schedule rather than when it starts complaining. Most of the safe calls we take are avoidable with those three habits.
