Fire Resistant Safe

3 "of 2300° Ceramic Wool & 1000° High Temp Glass

Sturdy Gun Safe uses 2300 degree U.L. listed ceramic wool, and U.L. listed 1000 degree high temperature glass blankets to line the fire safes. We feature 3 " of fire liner for the top, bottom and door of the safe, and 3" of insulator compressed to 2" for each wall to prevent the material from shaking downward. This insulator duo is designed to keep heat out with the virtually the same engineering used to keep heat in around extreme heat ovens and kilns.

 

14 Gauge Inside Steel Liner

Our fire safe liner is perfectly compressed with a heavy gauge inside steel liner. This adds to the gauge thickness of the body and door. It also adds more strength in the shelving because it's not just drilled into weak Sheetrock covered with a felt liner on the walls.

Fire Insulating Is An Option

The fire safe insulation is not for everyone. People with good response times with the fire department don't necessarily need to pay for a fire lined gun safe.

 

The Whole Safe Is Lined

The top, bottom, door and walls of the safe are fire lined the same way. Some safe companies line just the top and bottom, or they don't line the doors.

Fireproof Gun Safes

Double The Fire Protection Option

There is no better fireproof gun safe protection for the money available on the market than this one. 4" for the top and bottom of the safe, and 6" compressed to 4" for the walls and door. The body of the safe will have 2 blankets of high temperature glass along with 2 blankets of ceramic wool. The top and bottom of the safe will have 4 blankets of high temperature glass along with 4 blankets of ceramic wool. This is especially designed for those who live near high burn locations, with low response times to the fire department.

 

Our Lifetime Fire Warranty

If one had a Sturdy Fire Safe and they fell victim of a fire, Sturdy Safe will fix the burned safe to new condition, or replace the fire safe, free of charge. Freight and locksmith charges included.

 

Fireproof Gun Safes

Custom Fit Door Gasket

Sturdy Fire Safes uses 3M FireStop, that is then covered by a custom fit fire safe gasket. Our fire safe retardant boiler gasket is designed for high temp ovens and kilns. The 3M FireStop is designed to prevent the spread of fire, smoke, toxic fumes and moisture for up to four hours and expands several times it's normal capacity when heated. A custom fit gasket is important for a fire safe when comparing it to cheaper priced Palusol because clearance between the door and the door seat of any safe body on the market cannot be made to fit exactly the same every time. Basically, a one sized gasket cannot fit all safes perfectly. Our gasket fits against the door perfectly every time, without leaving gaps, or needing to be heated up first.

 

Fire Resistant Safe Some safe companies test their fire safes in controlled testing furnaces, which perform like oversized house ovens, yet get a lot hotter than your normal oven. These safe companies eliminate 2 important factors when testing their Sheetrock lined safes to get those ratings: 1st. Point Of No Return, and 2nd. Cool Down Time...

Fireproof Gun Safes Most fire gun safe manufacturers use Sheetrock to fire line their safes. As seen in the picture above, when it breaks apart, it gives one a better idea of what it's made of. Regardless of their ratings, Sheetrock will not do as good as it's rating, nor does it work good enough to be used as a fire insulator....

STURDY GUN SAFE IN AN ACCIDENTAL BURN DOWN:

 

Fire Resistant Safe

Video Of The Safe At The Burn Down Site

Fireproof Gun Safes Sturdy Safe customer named Stan had his house unexpectedly burn to the ground. He and his family are safe, but most of his house was lost. Stan and the firemen agreed the fire blazed for 1 hour and 20 minutes.

Fire Resistant Safe Our standard 3627-6 fire lined safe was one of the few things left standing.
We were there for the opening of the safe. The dial and paint had melted off. The body of the fire safe was warped due to the extreme heat.

Fireproof Gun Safes Before the opening, a fireman told Stan that he has never seen a fireproof gun safe make it through house fires that severe.The safe went through the fire with success, and after seeing the results, a some of those firemen came to Sturdy to buy fire safes.

Fire Resistant Safe The fire safe was opened and inside were irreplaceable paper documents, cash, guns and ammo all in great condition! This was a two engine response fire, so all firemen involved were witnesses to the burn down. 6 people, including Stan were witnesses to the onsite opening of the safe.

 


 

 

WARNING:

  • There are 2 safe manufacturers that have been making claims their gun safe fire liner will make it up to 2300 Deg For 60-120 minutes with Sheetrock and a .5-1 inch of ceramic as their insulator, yet haven't tested the fire safes in a lab, nor in real life test to base these claims on. Even with .5-1 inch worth of ceramic in combination with Sheetrock it will NOT MAKE IT IN A HOUSE FIRE AT 2300 DG. UP TO 60 MINUTES. Keep in mind steel melts at 2500°F. These same safe companies have poor Better Business Bureau Ratings so be leery.
