There is so much to know about safes, it would be hard to tell you all there is in just one blog post. Rather I like to think that if you are a reader of the Safe Gun Safes blog you gather quite a bit of information and have become a more knowledgeable safe owner or buyer. Here are some visual descriptions of different kinds of safes we’ve talked about to help give you a better idea of what we’re talking about!This is a FIRE safe. It gives FIRE protection and is engineered and insulated to protect its contents against HEAT. It is NOT designed to keep out an experienced burglar.

This is a BURGLARY RESISTANT safe.
It is engineered and constructed to protect cash and valuables against experience burglars. It gives little protection against heat.

This is a COMBINATION (COMPOSITE) safe

It gives both burglary and fire protection. The outer material is metal and the inner layer is a special composite material that provides both burglary and fire resistance.

This is an INSULATED VAULT door. It gives similar protection to that of a fire safe but is somewhat limited in it’s degree of burglary protection.
