8. KEEPING YOUR SAFE DRY
We recommend placing a moisture/protective barrier between your safe and
concrete floor to prevent any moisture, mildew and rust damage the safe. Installing
your safe in a place with climate control (heat in the winter and cooling in the summer)
is highly recommended. In areas of high humidity or frequent temperature fluctuations
(garages) it is recommend to take appropriate precautions to ward against moisture
damage. We strongly encourage the use of an internal dehumidifier and/or desiccants
to protect your contents from rust or mildew. Internal dehumidifiers should not be
in direct contact with the side or back walls.
The safe should be installed adjacent to a side wall with minimal space on either
side of the safe. Wherever possible, the safe should be flat against the wall and
floor. Remove the baseboard and/or wall trim if necessary.
Always ensure the safe is in an isolated and dry area. Never place the safe in direct
contact with a wet floor. When installing your safe on a concrete floor, use of a
moisture/protective barrier is highly recommended. Failure to do so, or exposing
the safe to chemicals or other adverse environments, may void the warranty.
If your safe seems unlevel, you may need to shim the bottom of the safe to
prevent the door from swinging open too quickly, or closing on itself.

WARNING: SAFES ARE VERY HEAVY AND AWKWARD TO HANDLE. PLEASE USE THE
UTMOST CARE IN MOVING THE SAFE. UTILIZING A TRAINED PROFESSIONAL WITH
PROPER MOVING EQUIPMENT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
The location of the gun safe is very important and the utmost care should be taken
during this consideration.
To maximize the fire protection of your safe, we recommend you place the safe in
lower levels in your home where fire temperatures are lower and away from highly
combustible materials.
To maximize burglary protection and stability, securing the safe to the floor
is recommended.
SA Consumer Products recommends that you store your safe in a closet, office,
basement, bedroom or any other location that is convenient for you but out of
direct line of sight from prying eyes. The location of the gun safe is very important.
