The Gun Safe, Fire Safe, Burglary Safe Chronicles: Electronic or Old Fashioned Dial; Which is Best for Your Safe?

The Gun Safe, Fire Safe, Burglary Safe Chronicles: Electronic or Old Fashioned Dial; Which is Best for Your Safe?

Choosing an electronic or standard safe dial is entirely a personal preference, as one is just as safe and secure as the other. Digital locks are easier for some owners, while others like a good old fashioned spin of the dial.

We are located in Reno / Sparks, Nevada, but we sell and ship gun, fire, and burglary safes to homes and businesses all over the world.

Safes, Discounted, Sold by Experts, for Guns, Cash, Jewelry, and Fire Protection

How much insulation should your gun safe have? Your fire safe? Should you buy 30 minute, 60 minute, or 90 minute fire protection. Do you need even more than that?

What are the pitfalls of buying a safe? What should you be careful of --even warned about? Can you buy a safe that can be pried open with crowbars? Can electronic push-button safe dials be opened with some trick of electronics? Should you go with an old fashioned dial?

What’s with all the different safe ratings? Is humidity a problem in safes? What if you forget the combination?

There are lots of things to think about when purchasing a safe you honestly intend to use for protection of things you DO NOT want to lose. I’m visited most of the websites for safes on the Internet --and let me tell you, there’s some real misinformation out there. Bad pricing, safe sellers who don’t seem to understand their products, and insinuations that some safes are, well --safer than they really are. A lot of the hype revolves around inexpensive safes, “real bargains,” as that’s where sellers try and make something marginal sound like something more substantial. The expensive safes, with real hard-plate, lots of steel, great bolt systems, and so on --those safes don’t need hype. They’re often advertised just with the facts.

To weed through it all, one of the solutions is to do what can make car repair easier: know a good mechanic you trust. In the case of buying a safe, it’s good to have someone who REALLY knows the business, an expert, to help you make the right decisions without wasting time and money.

We are The Safe Place. We’re located in Reno / Sparks, Nevada, but our customers reside in all 50 states (and beyond). We buy and sell in the kind of volume that allows us to pass on the best --often the nation’s lowest prices --to you. Call us at 775-358-7233 and talk with someone who knows, exactly, what they’re talking about (when it comes to anything and everything “SAFES”).

Can Someone Break Into YOUR Safe, This Easy

What you see in this rather disturbing and misleading little video is why you want to talk with someone who really knows safes (and what's not "safe" at all) before you buy something to protect something else, only to find it's not protected at all.

Don't let this video scare you, that's not a safe this fellow has opened, it just looks like one. To find --and buy --a real safe, discreetly and safely, call us at The Safe Place: 775-358-7233.

We won't sell you things like the "safe" in this video.

When to Buy A Safe and When Not to Buy A Safe (on-line or in-person)

Safe comes in all shapes and sizes.

But, chances are, you're only going to buy 1 (or 2) --and for sure, you're going to want to buy the right one, the first time.

Never buy a safe you think is safe, that looks like a safe, but doesn't come with some real, expert, safe-person advice.

One phone call, e-mail, or "Skype" could save you a lot of money, a lot of time, and quite possibly the loss of some things you simply don't want to lose.

Here's the phone number of a team of people who really, REALLY know what safes are, indeed, safe, and what safe you should probably avoid: 775-358-7233. It's the number for www.theSAFEplace.com.

It doesn't matter if you're looking for the best price (or the lowest price) on a gun safe, a jewelry safe, a flor, drop, or wall safe, or a TL-15 or TL-30, a vault door or a handgun safe, we know what's out there, we know what's well made, and we know how to get you the BEST price in the known universe (or close to it).

Can a giant axe or pick-axe yielded by someone with muscle open a safe?

Yes, some safes aren’t going to protect what’s inside from a muscle-bound thief with pry tools. However, some safes would allow hours and hours of physical abuse without ever opening. What you, the consumer, has to know, is that all safes are not created equal.

A lot of safes LOOK safe, but “safe” is a relative word. Some safes protect against fire, some against theft, some against fire and theft, and some security “boxes” are built to look like a safe, but don’t offer even 5 minutes of protection from someone intent on prying it open.

How do you discern a safe from a SAFE? Call a real (and I mean REAL) expert, like Bill Callos and his team of Safe-Men at The Safe Place. In 10 minutes or less, Bill will pry open the mystery of what kind of safe you’re going to want for your valuables.

Buy a Gun Safe On Line, but First, Ask an Expert for Advice

I’m getting ready to buy a gun safe from you at www.theSAFEplace.com and I’m thinking about putting it in my garage. Will it be safe there? Or is it safer in my house?

Good question. It all depends on your garage and your house. Will you have a security system in the garage? Do you have room in your house for your safe?

Bill Callos, the owner of The Safe Place, said this: “There’s no reason your gun safe --or any safe --couldn’t be just as secure in your garage as it is in your house. Bolt it down, have a security system installed, good lighting, and a garage is just an extension of your living room.”
