Gardall  Fire Insulated Front Load Depository Drop Safe - 171718-2FL

The Gardall 171718-2FL Fire-Insulated Depository Safe offers superb protection for your business's cash deposits when compared to your standard B-rate deposit safe. With a weight exceeding 500 pounds, this safe is built to withstand the most determined burglary attempts. As an added bonus, its fire-insulated walls provide peace of mind during weekends and other times when bank deposits are not possible.

Normally you have to make a choice; do you want a drop safe for fast employee deposits or do you want a secure safe to protect against serious burglary attempts?. This innovative design eliminates the need to choose and offers the best of both worlds. This safe utilizes a top-mounted drop door and a composite lining similar to those in UL-rated burglar and fire-resistant safes. This provides a significant security advantage over standard depository safes.

This tough burglary-resistant drop safe sets itself apart with walls over 2.50 inches thick and a door nearly 5.00 inches thick. Its durable Gardall Gray textured finish is sure to withstand the abuse of the daily grind in commercial applications. Weighing over 500 pounds, it provides substantial security and for added peace of mind, it includes a pre-drilled anchor hole for securing it to the floor. We will even include the required anchor bolt. No burglar will carry this safe away!

This safe is based on Gardall's very popular 171718-2 model which is a certified UL RSC burglary resistant safe with a 2-hour UL Class 350 fire rating. Features such as composite lining in the body and door as well as a multi-step door design and advanced door-to-body seal gives the contents of this drop safe the best possible chance in the event of a fire.

The door on this depository safe features the same composite lining found in the body as well as an additional steel hard-plate and independent re-locking device to thwart drill attacks. The door features a multi-step design which aids in protecting the contents from damage in the event of a fire and makes pry attacks difficult. The opening side of the door is secured with five 1" diameter solid steel rotating bolts, three on the side and one on both the top and bottom. These rotating bolts act as a line of defense against burglars who may attempt cutting them with a flexible blade. The hinged side of the door is secured with 2 additional 1" diameter steel dead bolts. An ultra reliable UL listed Type 1 digital lock means you get quick access throughout the day and reliability long into the future.

The drop design on this safe is intended to provide the best protection possible. This safe utilizes thicker steel than competing safes and the entire drop door is encased in a heavy duty steel housing. They won't gain access to the safes contents without cutting through the entirety of the safes body or door, or cutting through the extra thick steel of the drop door or it's housing. Every second counts when you're subjected to a serious break-in attempt.
