When you put the safe in an area where there is carpet, how is the best way to lay the carpet back down after trimming the carpet for the safe? Has anyone got a pic of how they did it? I dont really want frazzled edged carpet around it.
Thanks |

You also may want to seriously consider locating your safe tightly in a corner before you bolt it down...it doesn't have to be a concrete wall, but it will make it a bitch for someone to pry it out. I'm putting it in my master walk in closet. The side of the safe that the door opens from, will be near a wall. That's very good advice. The closet is 6 ft wide and 15ft long. I have given serious thought to making this closet more into a panic room of sort. Putting in a better door and a lockable door knob so that it could only be locked on the inside. Mostly for my wife, when I'm not home. I have a small child and now I'm giving it more, and more thought. |

I was going to say just bolt it through the carpet but then I thought about this...
If in the corner or allong a wall, the safe would be sitting on the tack strip, thus it might not bolt down flat, since the tack strip won't compress while the carpet/pad will. Is this an issue? |
