15. HINGES AND INTERNAL MECHANISMS
Store documents or heat sensitive items in the bottom of the safe for greatest
protection against fire damage.
Store ammunition separately from valuables.
Do not put anything in your safe that will put pressure against the door when
it is closed.
As a good safety precaution store heavier items either on the floor of the safe, or
away from the middle of the shelves.
The hinges and internal locking mechanism are permanently lubricated, thus needing no
maintenance. Opening the door panel of your safe may void your warranty. Always
consult our customer service experts prior to doing so.

Use the hardware provided or consult your hardware retailer for fastening
hardware for your particular mounting surface.
Open your safe door and locate and remove the four black caps on the
safe floor or back wall. This will provide access to the factory drilled bolt down holes.
To secure your safe to the floor it will first be necessary to drill pilot holes
in the floor surface.
For the hardware provided (concrete floor installation) we recommend using a
hammer drill and 3/8”concrete drill bit to drill the four corresponding holes in
the concrete floor.
Insert and drive the plastic anchoring plugs into the pilot holes. You may need
to use a hammer to fully insert the plugs into the pilot holes.
Secure the safe, by threading all anchor bolts through the factory drilled bolt
down holes in the bottom of the safe and ratcheting down tight.

Replace the four black caps onto the floor or back wall of the safe.
Make sure the metal washer sits on top of the rubber washer. Tighten the
bolt to compress the rubber washer between the safe and metal washer.
Failure to do so will allow water to enter the safe in the event of a flood.
