I am looking for a good quality home safe, mostly for jewelry & a few knives when we're away for a few days (sometimes a couple weeks). We will probably put in it a few important papers as well (birth certificates and the like). Main concern is burglary protection, with fire a secondary concern. We're not in a flood prone zone (on hill top). We also have a security system in our house.
We're willing to invest in quality. We need something "mid size" & floor mounted / anchored. I like the idea of a safe heavy enough that it cannot be carried away by a couple guys. I think I would rather get something that's not reliant on electrical power, but I'm willing to change my mind on this if there's compelling reason to.
This is not meant as a gun safe, although I suppose there's no reason why a handgun wouldn't find its place in it. It's definitely not meant as a long gun and it doesn't need to be that big.
Thank you all for your help.
