You probably have many items in your home that are important to you and have significant monetary value. You may own expensive jewelry or family heirlooms that you want to protect. Perhaps you keep a large sum of cash in your home in case there is an emergency. You may have important documents, such as a passport, will, or financial records, in your home. You may also have a gun that you use to protect your family.
These are not items that should be left lying out in the open. Items with monetary value can be attractive targets for thieves who might break into your home. Important documents could be lost or damaged if they were to be left out. Guns should be kept locked up in homes with children to prevent accidents.
A safe is the ideal place to store all of these items. A safe can protect your important items from thieves and children, as well as from damage that could be caused by a fire or flood. It is important to choose the right type of safe for your needs.
Wall and Floor Safes
If you want your safe to be hidden from view so potential burglars will not know where to look for valuables, you can choose a wall or floor safe. These are set into an open space in a wall or under the floor and can easily be concealed with a picture or rug. A wall or floor safe can be easily accessible to you so you will be able to get to your valuables whenever you need them, but it will be concealed so a burglar will overlook it during a break-in.
Fireproof Safes
A fire can break out in any home at any time. A house fire can be caused by a cooking accident, an electrical problem, a knocked over candle, a wildfire, or arson. You can protect your valuables from a fire by storing them in a fireproof safe. Safes vary in terms of their heat ratings, which measure how many hours they can keep the temperature inside below 350 degrees if there is a fire.
Gun Safes
If you own a gun for protection or for hunting and you have children living with you, you should keep the gun locked up when you are not using it. Young children see characters on TV and in video games using guns and may be tempted to play with real guns they find at home. You can protect your children and others from a tragic accident by storing your gun in a gun safe. Gun safes are available in many sizes to hold all types of firearms.
