Good safes are key to an overall security strategy for your home or business. A good safe can protect your valuable items from burglars and from damage due to fire. Be sure to check when looking for a safe to make sure that it carries a burglary and fireproof rating. Example burglary ratings are UL TL15 and TL 30 ratings, and example fireproof ratings are 1 hour and 2 hour fireproof rated.
Safes that carry these ratings have actually been tested to resist burglars and also tested under actual fire conditions to make certain that the contents of the safe were not damaged. Also, if you decide on a free-standing safe, make certain that it is bolted down. Good freestanding safes have bolt-holes in the bottom of the safe for this purpose. This keeps a would-be thief from carrying the safe to some other place where they will have plenty of time to open it.
