Fireproof Home Safe? Nah, Fireproof Home Vault…

fireproof home vaultFor most people, a little safe that is bolted to the floor in their bedroom closet is enough security for their valuables, but if you need more room, you could check into having a dedicated vault built for your home or home-based business (if you sell on the Internet and store items in your home, they would be much better protected in a vault than in the basement).

A company called FireLock makes modular fireproof vaults that can be made for residential use (with modular construction, the vault is built at the factory and then assembled on site–this usually means higher quality construction, as factory settings are easier to control than climate, weather, etc. which is a factor when building on site). A perk of modular vaults is that they’re not necessarily permanent structures. Old-fashioned vaults were set in poured concrete, so you had no chance of taking it with you if you moved. A modular vault can be disassembled and reassembled at a new locale if needed.
