A Safe , Bought At a Low Price, With Lots of Steel, Mounted Properly. Ahhh, Perfect!

Your safe should be anchored in place with heavy-duty fasteners. Use a number of  bolts in the bottom of the safe, anchored to concrete or some kind of solid, secure foundation. Choose heavy duty lag bolts or anchors for installation. And if you can't mount your gun or fire safe to the floor, bolt it to wall studs. Anything that makes your safe more difficult to move helps foil would-be thieves.

To get PERFECT ADVICE, and to find the best price, the lowest price if possible, on any safe, be it a gun safe, fire safe, floor or wall safe (any application you can think of) Call us. We are The Safe Place: 775-358-7233

A Fire Safe or a Gun Safe, Whatever the Price (Especially The Lowest) Has a Job To Do

A fire safe has to protect what you’ve put in it in the most extreme, but realistic, situations. If your house sits in the middle of an oil refinery, your needs might be a bit different than if you’re in the suburbs in a brick house.

Protecting media and hard drives is a different thing than protecting your presidential autograph collection. In most cases, you do NOT want to drive over to your local big box store and chat with the salesmen about the safes they have stacked next to the dog food. From all looks and appearances these might look like great safes (the literature is amazing!), but the truth is things might not be as they appear.

To get great advice, to get the best, if not the lowest price, to get your safe delivered, discreetly, to your door, call The Safe Place: 775-358-7233. You’ll order your safe, most likely, on line, but you’ll make sure you’re getting the right safe, be it a gun safe, floor safe, depository safe, or a wall safe, by calling us for no nonsense advice.

American Security VD8030BF Vault Door to be exact (see it by clicking on this link). But for ANY safe you want to think about look at, contemplate, and then buy, make your search an on-line one. Why? Discretion, for one, and two, inventory, expert help, and lower prices (by far).

Your safe is meant to protect your valuables from destruction by fire and heat --and/or from theft. Make sure you invest in a safe that’s truly SAFE. To find out the difference between one safe and another, contact anyone at www.TheSafePlace.com.

A Big Benefit to Owning a Safe

Owning your own safe means you can lock your guns up, out of reach of people who should not have them. Having a drop-safe in your business means you can let employees put in money without giving anyone the combination or keys to the safe itself. Owning your own safe means yo can go on vacation and know the jewelery is safe. Owning your own safe means you can lock up the cash, the papers, and just about anything you would not want to lose.

Now to know what safe is right for the things you want to protect now --and in the future --start looking at www.theSAFEplace.com. Call Bill Callos or one of his team at 775-358-7233. Shop wisely, as some safes look like safes, but are not “safe.” Before you spend your hard earned money to protect your hard earned money, do your homework. As far as prices go, you won’t find better prices than on The Safe Place’s website.

Wall Safes! Just like in The Movies. (Buy one on-line)

A wall safe hides. It hides in the wall, behind things. It’s bolted in, which keeps someone from carting it off, well...not without a LOT of work (it buys time). But best of all, a wall safe is hidden behind clothes, behind a mirror, a picture, a painting, a piece of furniture or just about anything that might normally cover a wall.

Wall safes start at around $50 and go up from there. Some are steel security containers, while others are something much more substantial. to see a selection of wall safes, hit this link.

Now here’s one of the things I like most about buying a safe on-line (whether a gun safe, a TL-15 or TL-30, a safe for cash, jewelery, papers, or whatever it is you want to protect) --is buying it discreetly. To find out just about anything you could ever want to know about how to buy a safe in-person or on-line, go to www.theSAFEplace.com and/or call Bill Callos and his team at The Safe Place, 775-358-7233.

Let's Talk (more) About Safes for Guns, Valuables, and Fire or Theft

Let’s talk safes. Safe with thin steel walls --and thick (THICK) steel walls. There’s a difference, of course. Let’s talk about fire safes with insulation that protects at high temperatures for 20, 30, 60, and 90 minutes plus. Let’s talk about the safe one of our clients bought at a “box store” sporting goods place that she came how to find had been pried open (her valuables, gone).

Let’s discuss your safe needs. Are you going to protect your collection of guns? How much would you value your collection at? Do you want to insure the contents? What kind of fire might destroy the contents of a fire safe you bought? What kind of fire safe would stand up in the kind of fire that might strike your home?

Are you going to protect jewelry? What’s the difference between a TL-15 and a TL-30 and why do you need to know this? What brands are made in the US --and which are shipped in from overseas --and does the quality vary?

Don’t buy a safe, in-person or on-line, until you know enough to make an informed decision. To GET INFORMED, go to www.theSAFEplace.com and/or call one of the team at The Safe Place: 775-358-7233 (PST).

Live in a Damp Climate? A Dehumidifier Keeps Your Safe Contents Dry

Live in a Damp Climate? A Dehumidifier Keeps Your Safe Contents Dry

You live somewhere where humidity is high!

Things get, well...damp. Whether you have a gun safe, a fire safe, or a vault, a Dehumidifying Rod, like the The Dri-Rod 36 Inch, which covers approximately 275+ cubic feet, and includes a Lifetime Warranty. can help air to circulate within your safe, thus preventing damage associated with moisture.

There are a number of options, start your search (whether it’s for a dehumidifier or a safe) at www.theSafePlace.com.

By the way, here’s a list of the 10 most humid cities in the U.S.: 10 most humid cities
Avg relative humidity in %

1. Quillayute, Washington 83.0 2. Olympia, Washington 78.0 3. Port Arthur, Texas 77.5 4. Lake Charles, Louisiana 77.0 5. Apalachicola, Florida 76.5 6. Gainesville, Florida 76.5 7. Corpus Christi, Texas 76.0 8. Eugene, Oregon 75.5 9.New Orleans, Louisiana 75.5 10. Houston, Texas 75.0

Burglary and the Safe, what you Should Know

I just came across this rather thorough list, supplied by State Farm Insurance) of ways to protect your home from burglary.

Of course, having a safe, whether a gun safe, a safe for jewelry, a fire safe, or a vault, should be number one on the list (and need I remind you that to buy one, for the best possible price, on-line, discreetly, go to www.theSAFEplace.com).

Protect yourself against home burglary
Whether you live in a house, a condo or an apartment, a break-in can permanently shatter your feeling of security at home.

According to FBI statistics, a house, apartment or condominium is burglarized once every 15 seconds.

Fortunately, burglary is probably the most preventable of crimes. By taking a few simple precautions, you can dramatically reduce the risks.

Of course, every home and every situation is different, and there are no guarantees.
The first step is to determine what kind of threat you are trying to protect against. For example, defending against personal threats, such as assault, requires different measures than defending against burglary.

Most home burglars do not give great amounts of thought to planning the job and assessing the benefits vs. dangers, but understanding how they choose a target can go a long way in reducing your chances of being a victim.

Most burglars look for:

Something worth stealing
Easy access combined with low visibility
A home that is unoccupied
Did you know? More residential burglaries occur during the day because homes tend to be vacant more often.

How to prevent break-ins:

Fool them by making your home look occupied all the time.
Use automatic timers on lights when away from home.
Always park your cars in the garage with the garage door shut. A burglar may otherwise notice a pattern that a closed garage door or no cars in the driveway means no one is home. Closing the garage door and having curtains or blinds on the garage windows also hides some of your belongings.

Place radios on automatic timers and raise the volume so they can be heard outside.
Lower the sound of your telephone ringer and answering machine so that they can't be heard outside.

Never leave notes on your door that can tip off burglars.

When away for more than a day:
If possible, have your telephone calls forwarded when you are away from home. Burglars sometimes check to see if someone is home by making a telephone call.

Have a trusted neighbor pick up the mail and newspaper. If possible, do not have either stopped. That gives information about you being away from home to others whom you do not know.

If away for an extended period, have a plan in place to have the grass mowed or snow shoveled.

If you are away from home on garbage pickup day, ask a trusted neighbor to put your garbage cans out to the street and take them back in. You may wish to have your neighbor use your garbage cans while you are out. Burglars sometimes check for empty cans as a sign the family is away.

There are systems available that will open and close window draperies by timer. Constantly open or closed curtains can tip the burglar off that no one is home.

Even if you don't need specific help, always tell a trusted neighbor if you are going to be gone for a few days.

If you are going to be gone for an extended period, ask your local police to check your home periodically.
In short, make your house look the same whether you are away or at home.

Eliminate hiding places
Make sure there is good lighting around the place where you park.

Install motion detector lights around your house instead of just leaving lights on at night. The lights coming on and turning off attract the attention of neighbors. Install these lights at least 8 feet above the ground so they are more difficult to disable.

Install the motion detector lights so they light all doors and windows. Doors, since they are the preferred entry point, should be the first priority to illuminate, followed by windows.

Remove bushes and shrubs from around the house, especially under windows and next to doors. Keep your yard free of overgrowth.

If you DO have shrubs and bushes, select ones with thorns to deter potential intruders from hiding in them.

Install a security alarm system with a loud alarm and/or flashing lights. This will attract the attention of neighbors. If you install an alarm, display the decals, and remember to test the system periodically.

Use common sense caution
Always lock all doors and windows when you leave the house.
Use a peephole to identify visitors before opening your door.
Do not hide spare keys outside your home, instead give one to a trusted neighbor.
Do not provide your house keys to service people.
Do not invite strangers into your home.
Do not have money or jewelry lying out in view from a window. If possible, keep jewelry and other small valuables and important documents in a safe deposit box.
Do not tell strangers your daily routines.
If you are at home working outside, leave all other doors that are out of sight locked.
Avoid telling others about the valuables in your home.
If you have children, discuss home security with them, such as not talking with strangers about their home, its contents or family schedules.

Make your home a harder target
Did you know? The average burglar will spend no more than four to five minutes trying to break into a residence.

When moving into a new residence, have the locks changed.

Consult a good locksmith to make sure you have the correct types of locks on your doors and windows.

Secure your exterior doors and any doors from attached garages by installing:
Good quality deadbolt door locks
Security-type door strikes
Strong, properly installed doors and doorframes that cannot be spread apart
Security-type hinge
Secure your windows by installing additional locks and installing impact-resistant glass on any windows within 42" of a door lock. This will make it more difficult to break the glass, reach in, and unlock the lock.

Prune lower branches of trees near your house if they could help a burglar gain access to a second story window.

Secure your patio door with a pin-type lock, a key lock, or a steel rod inserted into the door channel.

Secure your garage by installing automatic openers or bolt-type locks on each end of the garage doors.

Take time to become knowledgeable about your situation and your options so that you can best decide what to do. And remember, you can also ask your local police department for advice.

Inventory and mark your belongings.
Use our free resources to complete a home inventory.
Mark your belongings with an engraving pen so that they can be traced and return them to you if stolen. These pens are usually available at your local police station. Ask your police department what numbers to use when marking your belongings. Never mark them with your social security number.

Be a good neighbor
Organize a cookout or other apartment or neighborhood get together so neighbors can get to know one another.
Organize or participate in an Apartment Watch or Neighborhood Watch program.
Arrange for a local police officer to complete an apartment security survey, or educate your neighborhood about specific safety concerns.
If you are an apartment dweller, notify management if you notice burned out light bulbs, dark corridors, broken locks on mailboxes and doors and/or other safety concerns.
Call the police immediately if you see suspicious activity in your neighborhood.

Why I Bought a Small Handgun Safe


I bought the small handgun safe you see here in the picture, despite the fact that I already own a large gun safe AND a smaller safe for my wife's jewelry, because I wanted a handgun in my room, close at hand, but completely out of the reach of my children and grandchildren. I keep the key on a high shelf with some other keys, but my handgun is locked away, to prevent anything from happening that I wouldn't want to happen, if you know what I mean.

I timed myself, it only takes me 20 seconds to get my key (moving slowly and quietly from my bed), open my safe, and have my handgun in hand, clip loaded.

I'm happy with that -and I'm happy to have my handgun out of the way of little people (or anyone but me).

Bolting a Safe Down, Some Instructions.

Buy a safe, and OWN piece of mind. A safe provides security for valuables, memorable keep sakes, and keeps weapons away from children. The most popular residential safe is a gun safe. Gun safes are designed to store long guns such as rifles and shotguns. Burglars can do one of two things, attempt to break into a safe, or simply steal the entire safe, therefore to complete the security of owning a safe it must be bolted to the floor.
Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Safe
  • Power drill with tips for screws
  • 1/4" drill bit
  • Lag Bolts (3/8" x 3")
  • Washers (1" to 1-1/2" diameter)
  • Ratchet with socket and extension
  • 2x6 material
  • Saw
  • Tape Measure
  • Liquid Nails and cocking gun
  • Screws (1/4" x 3")
  • Wood Shims
  • Hollow center punch
  1. 1
  2. Find an ideal location to install your safe in your house, consider a back-up location in case this doesn't work. Before placing the safe in the desired location, inspect under the house for wiring, plumbing, etc. If you find there is too much underneath, you may want to consider another location.
  3. 2
  4. Place the safe in it's location. Use the wood shims to level the safe. They will need to be placed in the front of the safe, just under the door. Continue to add shims until the safe is completely level (plumb and square). The safe is level when the door can be opened without it opening on it's own, or slamming shut. If the safe is being installed on a carpeted area, place the safe about 1 & 1/2" away from the wall, this will help level the safe, by removing it from the carpet tack strip.
  5. 3
  6. Locate the predrilled holes in your safe. (You may need to remove caps)
  7. 4
  8. Use hollow punch and hammer to make a hole in the carpet for the bolts. TIP: Using a center punch will prevent damaging the carpet.
  9. 5
  10. Use a 1/4" drill bit to make a pilot hole for the 3/8" lag bolts (with washers).
  11. 6
  12. Locate the holes under the house, and measure and cut one or two 2x6 piece(s) of wood to fit between the beams of the house. If your safe has 4 holes you will need two 2x6 pieces. Apply liquid nails and screws to the edge of the beams to secure the 2x6 in place.
  13. 7
  14. Return inside the safe and pre-drill another pilot hole (now into the placed 2x6) using the same 1/4" drill bit.
  15. 8
  16. Drill the 3/8" lag bolts with attached washers down into the predrilled holes. (apply liquid nails to the screws for added strength)
