  Gun Safe

Have any of you guys ever installed your gun safe in the garage. I was thinking of doing this to avoid the hassle of trying to get 860 lbs. down the basement steps.

I understand the electric drying element should eliminate any moisture problems.

I was going to lag it down on the cement floor.

Allot of people told me it is a bad idea. Moisture may still be a problem and a couple of guys with a pickup could yank it out of the floor.

  Gun Safe

I ended up putting the safe in the garage. I lifted it off my flatbed with FEL and tipped it upright and drove it right into position. It was a very easy install! My workshop is at the farm about 12 miles away, so no tools are conveniently available for anyone to grab. I haven't lagged it down yet, but will in the near future. I live in a small town with little or no crime, besides I also have a neighbor that watches all the local traffic. He would report any suspicious activity.

I went with the electric dehumidifier. Was going to go oversize or put two units in it, since it is in the garage. I was informed not to over-do-it since you can dry the wood stocks out.

I was told that many of their customers, just put the cardboard box that it came in over the top of the safe. It has no writing, etc. on it other than some safety stickers about weight. That kinda camoflages it and people just glance at it without thinking it is a safe. I have a jog in the wall of my garage so it is hidden from view when people are in the driveway.

I feel allot better now that they are all secure along with important papers, etc.
