Tips and Reminders for Purchasing Fire Safes for Home or Office

  • 2 min read

Liberty gun safes have great fire protection for your weapons, paperwork and other valuable. To keep your important papers and other valuables protected, you should consider fire safes for home or office. Anyone and everyone is at risk for a fire no matter their building or location, and secondary measures such as sprinklers cannot always protect one's valuables.  As a matter of fact, sprinklers can damage papers, artwork, and other such things even more! Choosing fire safes for the home means finding one that fits into the space you have and that is accessible as needed. It can also mean getting one that's larger than what you imagine since there is any number of things you want to protect, from jewelry and documents to family photos, heirlooms, artwork, and so on. Once you start to think about what should be protected in fire safes, you may be surprised to realize the number of things you want to store. To find the right fire safes and to make the best choice for your home or office, consider a few simple tips and important reminders in this regard. Understand the differences in models. One way that many fire safes are different from other safes is that their materials are typically lighter. This is because they're designed to deflect the heat of a fire, not just the flames themselves. Some are meant to capture the heat between two panels and may have openings in those panels so the heat and steam can escape.  This means that fire safes may not be as safe from those picking the lock or trying to get it apart, since it's made with lighter materials. When choosing fire safes for home, understand the different models you have available to you as well. Some are mounted in the wall and others are in the floor. Depending upon the sized of your home and the amount of things you'll be storing, a floor modelmay be more convenient. Other fire safes are very small and are meant to be used like strongboxes, and they can be stored in a drawer or in a closet. Think seriously about the items you want to have stores and choose one that is larger than what you think you'll need, so you know you'll have enough space. Understanding the price differences. Why are some fire safes so much more expensive than others?  This typically has to do with their design and the materials used.  Some are very lightweight with just one layer of security around your items, and others have walls that are several inches thick.  As with most products, you get what you pay for and this is true with fire safes.  It's good to think seriously of your needs and your risk of fire, as well as of the value of the items you'll be storing before you make a decision.  Price alone shouldn't be the deciding factor but you don't want to get the cheapest item you see and assume it will give you the same protection.
