Home Safes Gun
Is a standard gun safe too heavy for mobile home?
My landlord is worried that it might come crashing through the floor. Any website references would be helpful. Thank you.
I’m guessing it’s between 300-500 lbs.
Unless you are buying something monstrously heavy (like a bank vault) and filling it with a “arsenal” of guns I don’t think the weight will be a problem. Think about it, if you have 4 people standing near each other talking among themselves (like at a party) that could easily be 600 pounds and nobody worries about their floor collapsing from having a party! Usually the mobile homes have 2 big I-beams that run down each side under the floor, you could locate the safe over one of them if it will put your landlord at ease.
Choosing Between A Home Safe And Bank Security Box
Choosing between a house safe and a security box at a bank are easily done when you set the good and the bad side by side. Both offer great security options, but which one truly is right for you? Is safety the only thing to consider? Which is more expensive?
Pros for home safes
The obvious pro here is that it’s at your house. This gives you twenty four hour access, allowing you to inventory your things, or add or take out items, and of course use said items or documents. Another pro is you know exactly what condition your possessions are in, being that they’re within grasp. Most safes are fire retardant allowing you to retrieve the safe after a fire has been extinguished. Most safes are heavy and awkward to carry. Though this sounds like a con instead of a pro, the weight and awkwardness is actually a security feature.
Other pros are the additional features that can be found in a safe. Some have features such as time delays. This makes it so the safe can only be opened during certain times. Digital input pads make it harder to lock pick and break in to the safe, especially without the pin. They also have safes with specific functions, like holding firearms. This not only makes you a more responsible gun owner but makes you community safer by denying others from using your guns in a crime. Another pro is that safes can be disguised as everyday objects making them hard to find to break into.
Cons of a home safe
The one major negative aspect of home safes are that they are not foolproof. It will not stop a professional thief from getting to anything on the inside. In fact there is not a one hundred percent thing you could do to prevent theft. The upfront costs of safes are rather high. This makes it maybe not the best option for something that only needs temporary protection. Safes are also no substitute for constant vigilance.
Pros of a safety deposit box
A bank’s safety deposit box may require a small upfront cost. This makes it cheaper in the short run. It also allows for more complacency. You are paying the bank to remain vigilant for you so you may pay attention to things more close to home.
Cons of a safety deposit box
As with safes, there is no foolproof way to safeguard your items. Just because there in a bank does not mean it cannot be taken. The bank may require you to pay extra for insurance as well. This may make it a poor choice for long term storage. You also will have access to the items only when the bank is opened. This is inconvenient if you need the item outside of banking hours.
I hope that this article has shown you the pros and cons of both the safe and safety deposit box. The upfront cost of the safe may deter you from buying one, however its features and longevity may be worth the cost for a long term storage solution, while the bank’s safety deposit box maybe better for a more temporary storage solution. Please keep in mind that neither solution is a foolproof. Both offer the risk of theft. So keep in mind both require constant checking and vigilance. Think out both routes before making a final call.
