Gardall Fire and Burglary Safe

Perfect size for hiding, heavy with thick 3" walls and 2 hour fire protection. Just the type of safe I was looking for.

I purchased the larger FS-2714 Gardall safe. It arrived in perfect condition in less then a week from my order date. The truck driver was nice enough to put in in my garage (curb service is all that is required). I ordered it with the dial lock which is not quite as quick as the digital pushbutton but I don't have a problem with it. I purchased an extra shelf which I found to be useful. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of 5 is that I feel there should be a better seal between the safe box and the door, and I found after purchasing this model that it does NOT have a UL 1 hour fire rating sticker as this size was never tested, despite the fact that it is constructed the same way as the smaller models in this series that do carry the UL tag. It does have the 2 hour rating based on the Korean standard.

I store relatively small valuables in this safe. It's very heavy duty, looks pretty cool (although I'm keeping it out of plain view) and I really like the combo lock and handle. Everything is super solid. I haven't bolted it to the floor yet so I can't really comment on that. There's really nothing I dislike about it. It's just a tank to protect my stuff! It's not easy to move[...]

I did my homework before upgrading our home safe(s) to this exact product. The bottom line, this is the best value in terms of three distinct areas of concern (at least for me): 1. Burglary 2. Fire protection 3. Interior space

HEAVY DUTY SAFE! NO ONE BREAKING INTO THIS. SENTRY SAFES DON'T COMPARE IN MY OPINON. EASILY BOLTED TO THE CONCRETE FLOOR WITH CONCRETE BIT AND A LITTLE HELP. HEAVY 200LBS DOOR COMES OFF EASY TO LIFT WITH 2 PEOPLE COMBINATION LOCK TAKES A BIT GETTING USE TOO. NOT LIKE THE OLD MASTER LOCKS -ALOT OF TURNING
