Any advice on a good safe?

I have a Fort Know Titan. It weighs 1,800 pounds empty and a whole lot more now that it is brimm full of guns. I really like that safe. It is fire rated to 1680 degrees for 90 minuets.

I have a Fort Knox Titan also but I sprung for some of the upgrades and extra sheeting. Mine is right at 2800 lbs and it is obscenely nice.

Mine fits into a perfect hole in my house so there is less then 1/2" of clearence on all sides to get it out. If I ever move I am not sure how exactly I will get it out though.

It is hard to describe how nice the door is and how solid it feels. I would guess the door weights in at around 1000 lbs on its own from the inertia it has when you move it.

My recommendation? Get a fort knox titan series, spend the extra money for the extra layers of steel inside, go mechanical on the lock as they are more reliable and buy bigger then you can afford. This is my second safe and I love it!
