Safes, they serve a purpose. They buy time (as the article, below, points out). If you buy a safe for your guns, pistols, jewelry, cash, coins, or any valuable you don't want stolen, you but time and security.
But you have to buy the right safe. Every week I get a list of articles published on-line about safes. Many of them are about safes that were carried away, opened with common tools, or were incorrectly installed. Oh, and I marvel at the stories of big amounts of cash taken from safes hacked out of a wall --or stories like that where valuables are stored in things that they should be stored in (you don't buy a $150 safe to secure $10,000 in cash.
Please consult with us before you buy any safe. We'll save you time, money, and quite possibly, some painful losses.

Walgreens stores in Knoxville have time-locked safes as new defense against pain pill robbers
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — With pain pill robbers sticking up pharmacies everywhere, Walgreens is putting the products in time-locked safes in its Knoxville drug stores as an expansion of a program that has proven to be a success.
Under the eye of security cameras, robbers apparently don't like having to wait.
Police records show drugstore holdups have dramatically increased in recent years, along with abuse of drugs such as oxycodone.
Knoxville and Knox County officers worked 44 drugstore robberies last year, nearly double the total from the year before.
Walgreens spokesman Robert Elfinger said the pill safes have proven effective in Washington, Oregon andIdaho.
Company officials told The Knoxville News Sentinel that by the time a robber gets the pills, police should be walking through the door.
