[QUOTE="IBlum, post: 2737170, member: 108778"] I’m sorry to hear about your loss. My family and I lost our home two years ago in a fire and I also lost all my guns. I’ve been a career firefighter for the last 23 years and I’m sorry to say that I have never seen a safe take a full house fire and save anything in it. Fire rated safes are rated for a time and temp. What the manufactures don’t tell you is that rating is only guaranteed if there is active firefighting going on in the immediate area of the safe/house. The only fire rated safes I have ever seen save anything were adjacent to a room or section of building on fire. When I replaced my safe I bought the safe that provided me the greatest security for theft followed by fire rating. I’m sincerely sorry for your loss. IB [/QUOTE]
