I don't hide them and can't think of a single reason to do so.

My tools are locked up in a rolling tool cabinet.
Watch IT TAKES A THIEF sometime, you'll see why. PS: you're = you are your = something you own, YOUR property - spelling/grammar Nazi |

They're kinda....laying around everywhere in the garage.
Is this another type of " Do it for the children" concepts? |

most breakings are snatch and grab, I'm just thinking out loud here. Some punks in the house see you're safe. If it's a good safe really a norml power hand drill will not open it. But they might think it will and they just end up trying to drill you're lock out and just cause damage to the safe, when if no bits or saws they don't even try. Just thinking out loud |

It would take a real long time to drill through a good safe.( not some .032 steel)
Unless they have the drill used in HEAT, you have nothing to worry about. |

Watch IT TAKES A THIEF. When they break into a home, it's ALWAYS using stuff you left out - ladders, sledgehammers, loose rocks/bricks, etc... |

Its mostly just the damage they would cause to it, And yes it did it's job and kept them out ,but without the tool bits they would not even try.Im just talking about just some punk kids , not a pro. |

Most home break-ins (80%) are committed by someone known to the victim--most often someone allowed in the house prior. Typically it's friends of teenagers who live in the home. We almost never have company here, have no teenagers (wife's kids are grown and gone) and everyone who knows me would be afraid I would catch them. I'm not trying to sound like some Rambo bad-ass, but I have a VERY bad attitude about thieves and everyone who knows me, even a little, knows that. So far so good.  I did have a safe manufacturer tell me any safe can easily be opened by cutting the top off like a sardine can with just a Sawzall. It's very noisy and time-consuming so it's rarely done in the home--but bolt that bad boy down so it can't be hauled away, especially if you have it in the garage.

Your example is pointless in this situation. Those are professional crooks. If they come for your guns they are getting them with or without your tools. A safe is NOT 100% against a theif. For the non-Professional its not likely they have the time skill or balls to open your safe with anything you might have. |
