Gun Safes : Fire Safe Manufacturer : Sturdy Gun Safe

This is who I will spend my hard earned $$$ in a few years when I move to my next ( LAST ) house.

I bought a TL20 safe that I;ve added even more steel to and will be building a drywalled cabinet around to hide it and to add more fire protection to.

Terry has some great videos of why to buy his safe. Watch them, I have.

The more that you understand how that they make these things the less that you'll trust a cheaper safe.

Sturdy safes are not the prettiest things but I will trust my families heirlooms, my documents, pictures, wifes jewelery, my meager firearms, spare keys, some ammo, camera, tapes of family get together as well as a few other things that I do not care to end up at a pawn shop or burnt in a fire.

My next safe will be a TALL safe to add more volume with out enlarging the foot print.

Yes, BOLT them down. A few guys that know what they're doing can get in or if they're smart remove the safe to a better place to make noise while busting the safe.

I paid $400 for this out a company that was closing down it's a 1950's TL20 The outside skin is .100 thick and I added another sheet of 10 ga. over it. Next is a concrete wall that's 2" thick and another sheet of 14 ga steel that forms the interior.
