The primary purpose of a fireproof safe is to protect important paper documents, such as passports, birth certificates, and legal papers. Our fire safes also protect against this, with water-resistant and waterproof chest safes designed to protect against both fire and flooding to keep your most important papers intact and readable after the disaster. Once the threat of burning has passed, firefighting itself also poses a risk for documents, with the sprinklers and fire hoses flooding the room and soaking its contents. Unlike a typical burglar safe, most fire safes are much smaller, and often locked with a relatively simple combination lock, to provide some resistance to theft while still maintaining easy access for valuables and important paperwork. And with the threat of wildfire likely to continue increasing in the West, there isnвЂ™t a better time to invest in fire safety. In the United States in 2015, over $14 billion worth of valuables were lost in house fires, with almost 100,000 houses burning down across the country. For the average homeowner, however, fire is a greater threat than theft. If you want to cover all contingencies, combination burglar / fire safes are available.

If you live in a high crime area, you have the option of a high-security safe. Statistically speaking, you're more likely to experience a property-damaging fire than burglary, which is why Safe and Vault Store offers a wide selection of fireproof safes. Protect Your Documents With A Fireproof Safe
