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

Sturdy Safe uses 2300 degree U.L. listed ceramic wool, and U.L. listed 1000 degree high temperature glass blankets to line the fire safes. 3 " total fire liner for the top and bottom 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.

• 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.

• 14-16 Gauge Inside Steel Liner

Our fire liner material 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 insulation is an option because people with good response times with the fire department don't necessarily need to pay for a good fire lined gun safe.

• Custom Fit Door Gasket

Sturdy uses 3M FireStop, that is then covered by a custom fit fire gasket. Our fire 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.

• Our 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 safe, free of charge.

• Double The Fire Protection Option

There is no better fire 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 standard lined fire safe was one of the few things left standing. We were there for the opening of the safe. The dial and paint was melted off. The body of the safe was warped due to the extreme heat.

Before the opening, a fireman told Stan that fire proof gun safes never make it through house fires that severe.The safe went through the fire with success, and after seeing the results, a few of those firemen came to Sturdy to buy fire safes.

The 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.
