    My son is a locksmith and, following his advice, we have a Phoenix safe.   Its main purpose is to store our wills and other documents.  Theft was not a particular concern. More so is fire and water damage.  We keep it on the floor of our built-in wardrobe.  It is not bolted down but is VERY heavy!

  • Do those of you with fireproof safes find you need to open it to air it every few weeks to avoid moisture build up?

    Am I better off buying a non-fireproof safe, then buying fireproof packs to put in it?
